Log Cabin Wall Thickness

Our log cabins are available in a range of wall thicknesses; 28mm, 45mm and 62mm (Insulated) which is equivalent to 110mm U-Value.

U-Values provide a measure of heat loss found within building materials used for walls, floors and roofs. If you intend to use your cabin all-year-round, rather than just seasonally, you should choose as thick a wall as possible to maximise the insulation.

To allow you to compare options we quote the U-Values of the walls below.

Our 28mm walls are almost 50% bigger than a 19mm wall and are ideal for larger buildings for seasonal use. (U-Value 2.59 w/m2 K)

Our 45mm walls contain over 60% more wood than a 28mm wall and are ideal for use all-year-round. (U-Value 1.93 w/m2 k)

Our 62mm walls are a triple tongue and groove sandwich of timber and polyisocyanurate insulation. This achieves a U-Value equivalent to 110mm walls. (U-Value 0.59w/m2 K)

Buy Small Log Cabins

We have a wide range of log cabins in varying sizes and designs, ideal for a multitude of uses. The size of log cabin you buy may be determined by your budget, intended use, or the space available to you in your garden. Maybe you want a cosy little retreat, or a dedicated office area. Whatever your needs and restrictions, we are sure to have a log cabin that fits. If you are tight on space, or have an awkward shaped garden, a corner log cabin may be the answer. As the name suggests, these garden rooms are designed to fit snugly into a corner of the garden, without creating amounts of wasted space.
