Log sizes, what should I get for my log cabin?

Anyone who read last weeks blog will have heard all about our first two log sizes 19mm logs and 28mm logs. These are our basic log sizes and the 28mm logs come as a minimum standard on all our Shire log cabins. Upgrading your log size from 28mm logs not only upgrades the thickness of the logs but many other parts of the log cabin aswell.

34mm logs – Upgrading to the 34mm logs gives you a range of extras on your log cabin, spending that little bit more can really benefit your log cabin in these areas.

Log Cabin Floor & Roof Boards: Upgraded from 14mm to 20mm tongue and groove

Log Cabin Roof Joists: Upgraded from 44 x 70mm to a much thicker 44 x 135mm

Log Cabin Window & Door Spec: Upgraded from 34 x 58mm Joinery to 44 x 58mm Joinery

Log Cabin Felt Weight per sq.m: Upgraded from 2.0kg to a more durable 3.8kg

Many of our customers choose to upgrade to the 34mm log size because of the huge amounts of other upgraded log cabin features it gives you. If you’re looking at using your log cabin for a home office this log size will keep you nice and toasty even when the weather gets colder.

44mm logs – Upgrading to the 44mm logs give you double tongue and groove along with all the benefits described in the 34mm logs. This interlocking double tongue and groove gives you significantly better insulation for you log cabin, than the single tongue and groove 19, 28 and 34mm logs. Some of our largest log cabins come with the 44m logs as standard, this is because using a smaller log size could reduce the strength of the building.

70mm logs – This is our largest log size if you want a log cabin that’ll put a lodge in Lapland to shame, then the 70mm logs is the log size for your log cabin. Coming in double tongue and groove this log size is sure you keep you nice and snug even in the coldest of conditions.
