The blakedown log cabin is the largest apex roof model in Forest
Garden's log cabin range. It's footprint of 6 metres wide x 4 metres deep
gives it a huge internal floor area of 21 square meters (228 square feet)
which make it ideal for a multi-use building whether you need extra living
space, a large office or plenty of room for recreational activities such as a
home gym, workshop, hobby room or combination of these.The traditional apex roof
configuration offers a little more head room inside the cabin with the apex
being 2.47 metres high (approx. 2.5m inside). As well as the double glazed
double doors, there are 3 additional 3/4 length windows on the front with tilt
and turn opening mechanisms that allow them to be opened conventionally or
tilted back with the top of the window open. There are two more additional tilt
and turn windows with one in each side wall. The doors can be positioned on the
left or right side of the front aspect as the cabin is built.The walls are built
using 45mm thick interlocking logs while the floor and roof are constructed from
19mm tongue and groove boards. All windows are double glazed with toughened
glass.Overall dimensions are 6.24 metres x 4.2 metres (20 × 14 feet) and
roof features a useful 23cm overhang at the front and back and 20cm at the sides
to give some shelter from rain. The internal floor dimensions of 5.7m x 3.7m
give a total floor area of 21.2 m (228 square feet) which makes this garden
building a quick and cost-effective way of extending your living space
significantly.Different roof felt options are available with this option being
supplied with 24kg weight Polyester felt (without underlay). The felt has a
polyester fibre base layer that makes it much stronger and more tear resistant
than non-polyester grades. With more than twice the tear resistance of
conventional mineral felt it has a life expectancy of up to 15 years when
fitted correctly.We recommend the small upgrade to Polyester felt with
additional black sand felt underlay.All deliveries are made by vehicles with a
crane off-load facility and with an optional professional assembly service. The
log cabin must be built upon a solid and level surface such as a poured
concrete base.
