The Forest Chiltern 4m x 3m Log Cabin – Dual Glazed is meticulously crafted and equipped with every essential feature for a top-tier garden workspace or premium summer residence. Crafted with 34mm interlocking, kiln-dried logs, this garden log cabin is not only sturdy but also resistant to weather elements. The high-quality 19mm tongue and groove floor is durable enough to endure constant use and ideal for storing heavier items. Featuring a 19mm tongue and groove roof with a distinctive reverse apex design, it provides increased headroom across the cabin’s width.

This cabin comes with Forest’s top-tier Premium Felt, offering double the tear-resistance of standard felt with a life expectancy of 15 years. You have four choices for the roof felt:

  • Premium Felt with a 15-year lifespan
  • Premium Felt plus Underlay
  • An upgrade to Superior Felt, with three times the tear-resistance of standard felt and a remarkable 20-30 year life expectancy, along with free underlay
  • Felt shingle option with underlay, lasting for 10 years

To enhance weather protection, it’s recommended to opt for one of the choices that include underlay. This garden cabin provides 10.2m² of internal floor space (110ft²), ensuring ample room for furniture and shelves. Access is via double glazed toughened glass doors with a key-operated lock for security.

There are two additional 3/4-length windows to flood the interior with natural light, also made of toughened glass and featuring a tilt and turn mechanism for side or top opening.

All the timber used is FSC®-certified, originating from sustainable forests. It’s important to assemble this cabin on a solid, even surface like poured concrete and to treat it with a solvent-based preservative upon construction as the cabin is delivered untreated. An installation service is available as an upgrade.

FAQs

The size of the shed depends on what you plan to store or use it for. Measure the items you plan to store and consider any additional space for moving around or future storage needs. Common sizes range from small (6×8 feet) for basic storage to large (12×24 feet) for workshops or extensive storage.
Sheds are typically made from wood, metal, or plastic. Wood is aesthetically pleasing and customizable but requires more maintenance. Metal sheds are durable and secure but can be prone to rust. Plastic sheds are low-maintenance and easy to assemble but may not be as sturdy as wood or metal.

Permit requirements vary by location. Check with your local building department or zoning office. Typically, small sheds (under 120 square feet) may not require a permit, but larger ones or those with electrical installations often do.

A solid foundation is crucial for stability and longevity. Options include concrete slabs, gravel bases, or wooden platforms. Choose a foundation based on your shed’s size, material, and the ground conditions of your site.
Look for sheds with features like weather-resistant materials, proper sealing, and robust construction. Ensure the shed has a good roof overhang, proper drainage, and secure locking mechanisms to protect against theft and weather damage.
Assembly time depends on the size and complexity of the shed. Small, simple sheds can be assembled in a few hours, while larger or more complex sheds may take a full day or more. Professional installation is also an option for those who prefer not to DIY.
Maintenance depends on the material. Wooden sheds need periodic painting or staining and checking for rot or pests. Metal sheds may need rust prevention treatments. Plastic sheds require minimal maintenance, typically just cleaning as needed.
Moving a shed is possible but can be challenging, especially for larger structures. It’s easier to move a smaller shed if it has a solid base. Consider the logistics and potential costs of moving before installation. If moving is likely, a portable shed might be a better option.
Many sheds come with detailed assembly instructions, making them suitable for DIY installation, especially smaller models. However, larger or more complex sheds may require professional installation to ensure they are properly and safely assembled. Assess your skill level, available tools, and the complexity of the shed before deciding.
