Superbly built, premium quality, a cost-effective way of
really enjoying your outdoor life. I've been joined by Nick from BillyOh.
Hi Nick!
Hi there. Thank you. With the Devon Log Cabin we're talking about the strength
and the quality. We’re calling it as a premium log cabin.
Why is that? Yeah, I mean as with all of our log cabins they’re constructed using
slow grown Scandinavian softwood
that gives it a tighter grain. And again with all of our log cabins
they use the same method which is interlocking boards so whereby a shed is
made by a panel that's pre-made.
These individual boards that simply interlock into place.
gives you a really strong solid construction. So this is, its tongue and groove
and its interlocking as well so it makes it really strong. Exactly right! So it's
joined together
essentially in two different ways. Okay, now there are three different
strengths that you can choose from. You can either go for a standard, a premium,
or the ultimate. What’s the difference between the three? Let’s talk about the standard.
Yeah, absolutely! The standard is 28 mm thick.
So, boards just like this, 28 mm thick, ideal for use during
the summer
but not necessarily during the winter months. Okay, then the intermediate one which
is the premium?
Yep, 35 mm, so would be about there on this board.
And what you’ll find, you can use that during the winter months. You can put
some heating in your cabin.
and that should be absolutely fine. And then the ultimate? Yep, this is what you
see here now.
This is the double tongue and groove construction and this means it’s
absolutely fine during the whole of winter. Put a heater in there.
You can use it as an office or as an extra living space the entire year so it's
absolutely fantastic for that reason. So for instance, if I was going to build
an outdoor gym, would I need the ultimate? ‘Cause it’s gonna take a lot of pounding.
I would certainly suggest it I mean wherever possible we would always
suggest going to the 44 minutes a building
because it just gives you the added usage in you can you do the whole year
round
just give you a whole new dimension to that building would much rather whether
if I'm in a
mother got an expose golden that's quite a lot of wind should I go for the
strongest
I mean again with it will be in the jewel construction with the
added doodle tune group will make it that much stronger so
anything that's taken strong will be certainly a lot stronger a lot more
resistant to any the weather in
unfortunately certainly in this country do get a lot about whether I'm afraid
now any chance you look up and you can also choose the type of windows that
you'd like as well and there are two types on the net yes that's exactly
right
a standard I love cabins can with what we call a styrene finish now this is a
thin sheet of plastic
and you put that in the doors or windows yourself now this particular model
actually upgraded the double glazing now this gives you toughened glass finish
and what that means is you can get two sheets in class which is six male pic
with the formal space in between
so it's a lost on the construction as well and not just on that that's going
to be more beneficial in the winter time if you're out those because it'll be
more insulators
Google some pre thing as well yeah absolutely just give the extra dimension
to this Kevin means again you can use it to the winter months
just put a heater in their national key be fine when it's really cold as well
and likewise as you say with any budding musicians or somebody wants to make a
lot of noise in here
I would definitely hope for the double glazed option for quietness well
furnitures is like a standard
yet said leaders and as you can see it all local as well so just give you the
added security as well
and one more choice they need to make is the style of windows that you want to
yeah absolutely now this particular model this is what we call the modern
finish
so has nothing on it now what we also do is a Georgian now this gives you vesicle
and horizontal bars just give the final finishing touch to the cabin
now that I think about the type of flooring and base that you need for your
you look up in many cases I'm basically will need to put a flat surface on a
cell phone
yeah I mean that's the key thing when building a log cabin has to be level
flat service we'd advise solid level concrete maybe six inches thick
all really strong solid slabs as well and then we got choices and the top
blowing out by
yet again will be a Kevin give you a choice so if you're in I V DIY really
feeling pretty advanced
and we can just apply with the parents and you can build your own floor for UN
cabin
if the feelings the 12 have a little bit of assistance with it but anyone so the
basic use
we can supply you the level boys and it can you just pick states to the Bears
that was supplied
now with this particular cabin be gone for the upgrade option again which is 90
male
so this means you don't have to worry about dropping anything on the floor
hopefully as well
again you just got back aboard and you just put in to get the South onto the
Bears provided
you know it you can really sense the difference that the double glazing makes
to the to the sound and
don't let really does make an enormous difference to be honest in you can he
sell them contain yourself away to
where he won the lotto Kevin today to as well I find it quite
calming yet completely and it does make a huge difference
knows in this very important when you're buying accompany the course
the view that you can see outside to look happens I hadn't heard amid the
most severe
with all the modern range be a cabins were very aware of this
and so whatever Kevin you buy will send you the pact and then you literally
position the doors and windows exactly where you want
so for example this one is on the front right at the cabin but you can have on
the left hand side
or the rear as well light once the doors you can actually flip it rounds you've
got the doors on the far side
and the window where arms that right now so if I change my mind
after ordered my log cabin when I get this home now when the doors on the side
it's not too late I cannot do
we wouldn't even need to because we still it's and you at the same package
and it's your choice you just build as you want
as you're going through the process a building that haven't so that's what I
like about the day you really do get a personal service and they
ultimate bespoke woke up in Fig garden when the first things I noticed when I
came inside the tent mock-up in
is the census spaces so roommate the the savings there is ready to listen to Jai
well me I'm stretching up on congress the rate really does give a great sense
of space in here
really is a fantastic gone get away and it was great as well we've got home
groove on the roof has just undergone
on any of the options it is but happier cabins we love to keep the features
premium
and that's where we are few to agree United as in the world
is a smooth finish I'm use that on the reef as well so
all about kevin's can with hungry briefs now a standard you get
11 me to pause we should just assemble yourself with this cabin we going to do
great ninety millimeter vision so can you just assemble the edge itself and it
just gives the extra bed strength
and as opposed to the paint on groove as well at the or the kind was kinda
interlocked and they said
that adds to the strength of the report is really important because as to the
strength and the insulation
unfortunately in this country we get a lot of bad weather and really helps keep
that as well
so do have choices as to what goes on the top of my wrist absolutely
be a wee lips give you choices you neck a standard you won't get any recovering
so just use the options upon something that you may have seen that you
you prefer the more we can offer you however with ourselves we can of you
felt which is going to be a
a standard mineral file which is the strongest the Cabal all with this
particular
have been moved in is we put the roofing shingles on it now this just gives you
that
real tiled looks like is a great effect in the final finish into the cabin
no matter what you going to be using a log cabin for security nick is really
important said
do we have lots a standard it really is I mean don't get me wrong people are
gonna put some very expensive things in a cabin with fully aware that
that's why would this building we give you five leave the security log
just you that added burden for peace of mind really and something else we're
talking about the does is how far open
that you do it with big cases the furniture inside and the Dukan Diet
well you'll notice is the hinges are actually mounted on the outside and also
fully adjustable as well
what that does give you a great range of motion on the door seeking really open
it wide
obviously love beautiful setting when it does actually come out as well
what about maintenance 1982 at any kind of treatment to the wood when I get home
we would certainly advise a year what you'll notice as it comes as standard
there's no treatment on it until
now the reason we do this is because some people love the color the cabin is
a rise in the natural wood
so we can do is you can just vanish and that would just keep the cooler as it is
right now
but we do also have a variety of colors available on the website
long as you call it was something ideally we would say annually
then it's absolutely perfect and what more just means you can customize it
exactly the way we wanted to fit into your garden
so that why Billy ago and why should we be
you going for the double cabin the Devon on Steam release the
ultimate Kevin we do in terms of customizability so
with you want it for something little get away for the kids to give you that
little bit over
peace throughout the day or where you want to use it as an office see
literally when you anti livelihood from is let you in option for everybody
seeking have a really small one or really large one and then you move on to
the options
you can choose how thick the floor is she's having the walls are
and the roof and you can also choose was on the roof as well literally the
options are endless
so ultimately you're going to end up with lockup in thats bespoke fears
that's going to be useful for you
that affordable extra space in your garden and helping you to enjoy your
garden in your outdoor living
more the world
well
