            Description

            The 10 x 12 Shire Solway Log Cabin is a practical and versatile garden building that will provide you with valuable storage or work space while looking fantastic in any garden. Easily turned into a business or hobbyist workshop, a useful extra storage space, or both, the Solway has proved an extremely popular log cabin.

            At elbec, we are confident that our log cabins are the perfect way to make the most of your unused garden space and provide a wonderful spot to work or spend your leisure time in comfort all year round.

            Ways to Make the Most of Your Solway Log Cabin

            There are plenty of ways to make the most out of your Solway Log Cabin. As a stylish workshop that will allow you to pursue your hobbies or set up a business from home, there are few better options that match a log cabin for practicality, usability and value. You can also rest assured that downing tools in the winter months can become a thing of the past. The Solway’s interior is well insulated from the elements, meaning that you really can use it all year round in comfort. As the weather turns warmer, the two large opening windows allow plenty of airflow through your cabin, ensuring that it will remain a cool, breezy and comfortable space to work or relax. Of course, you may have leisure pursuits in mind, in which case the Solway could provide you with space for a home gym or simply a cosy place to relax and unwind in the attractive surroundings of your garden. The 10 x 12 would also be perfect for musical equipment, so setting it up as a home studio or practice room would be a great way to use your space. Whatever use you have in mind, and with larger or custom sized cabins available in the range, we are confident that a Solway Log Cabin will be a valuable addition to any garden. 

            Why Others Tell Us They Love the Solway

            I’m sure most would agree that many garden buildings, while they may be practical, won’t be winning awards for their beauty any time soon. When other sheds, workshops or garages might prove to be a bit of an eyesore in your garden, the Solway combines being a practical and versatile work or storage space while maintaining a stunning, traditional log cabin look. The sturdy double doors open wide to make taking even larger tools, materials and stored items in and out as straightforward as possible. The opening windows are large and attractive, allowing in plenty of natural light. This makes the inside feel bright and open. The handcrafted joinery on the windows gives a touch of quality that you will struggle to find on any garden building not supplied by Shire. The generous roof height adds to the spacious feeling of the interior, which is finished neatly with quality skirting boards and thick roof beams. This all comes together to make spending time inside, be it for work or leisure, a real pleasure. Our customers often like to add their own personal touch by painting their log cabins, which look fantastic in any style or colour. Shire recommends that you use Protek paint, available from elbec in a wide variety of colours. By using Protek Royal Exterior, you can make the Solway look exactly how you want it while adding extra protection to the timber. Whether you prefer bold, bright colours or more subtle, natural wood tones, Protek really do have a paint to suit any taste.

            Features

            A Shire Log Cabin is built to last, and the Solway is certainly no exception. Shire uses 4-way corner joints and interlocking logs of the highest quality as standard. This ensures that you’ll be impressed by the strength, stability and sturdy feel of the Solway Log Cabin. With Shire’s draught seal system fitted on all external windows and doors, you are sure to be snug when inside. The Shire Solway Log Cabin is made from logs that are 28mm in thickness. Our customers often choose to upgrade to a thicker wall log (available in 34mm, 44mm and 70mm) if they would like a cabin with extra insulation for an all-year-round cosier feel, especially if they intend to use it as a workshop for business purposes. You will also receive an upgraded roof, floor and joists when upgrading. Opting for optional double glazed windows is another great way to improve the cabin’s year-round usability. Quality floor and roof insulation using Celotex is also available as an optional extra so you can make the most of your log cabin whatever the weather. At the time of assembly, you can choose which side you would like the windows, giving you extra flexibility to adapt the log cabin to your garden. You can also purchase and construct your log cabin in the confidence that all Shire Log Cabins can be dismantled and rebuilt should you ever decide to move. We’re pleased to offer the option of booking our dedicated professionals who will assemble your log cabin quickly and correctly. However, you can choose to use the comprehensive instructions included with the log cabin and construct it yourself.

            Range of Customisations Options

            At elbec, we offer a wide range of customisation options on all our Shire log cabins to help give you your perfect cabin. Why not upgrade to double glazed windows for extra insulation all year round and a comfortable work environment inside whatever the weather?

            About the Timber

            You will be impressed by Shire's use of natural products and their environmental credentials. A high quality timber log cabin starts with high quality timber, so it is important to know exactly what timber is being used for your log cabin. The most commonly used timber for garden buildings is pine (pinus) as this is widely available for a very cheap price, however all of Shire's garden buildings are constructed using high quality spruce (picea) and is sourced from Scandinavia under strict FSC guidance. Spruce is more durable than pine and provides a higher quality finish. This timber is slow grown unlike fast grown British and Eastern Europe's timber, being slow grown timber means a tighter grain, less sap and with far fewer knots. The timber used on Shire's log cabins is therefore a more durable timber that will last much longer than other timbers used on log cabins. Spruce is therefore the timber of choice for companies such as Shire who always look to produce the best garden building.

            Base

            It is important that the base for your log cabin is firm and level. You can request 'Guidelines for Preparing a Concrete Base' through our 'Contact Us' Section.

            About your Log Cabin Order

            If you think a Shire Solway Log Cabin is perfect for you, have a look at our FAQs for Shire Log Cabins where we go over the finer details. These range from preparing the base on which to build your log cabin, to arranging delivery of your purchase.

            Picture shows footprint of 2390mmG (Door Side) x 2990mm (8'G x 10') Shire Solway Log Cabin with optional felt green felt roof tiles (please be aware that the felt roof tile design has now changed). The base sizes are taken to the extreme external length of the log including the corner joints that protrude. The base measurements do not include any roof overhangs. The double doors shown are located on the 8ft front width.

            All Shire Log Cabins are supplied untreated. You must apply a wood treatment to the exterior. Shire recommends Protek exterior wood paint, available from elbec in many different colours. This will protect the timber from weathering, making it last longer. The timber treatment will need to be repeated periodically in line with the manufacturer's instructions.
