Description

The 4 x 2 Pressure Treated Log Box with Planed Timber from Shire provides a great way to store logs and firewood in a sheltered environment. This will enable you to keep your outdoor spaces neat and tidy, all the while having a handy store of logs ready to go for your word burner or fire pit. Its compact footprint makes it perfect for any sized garden, but this also means it will fit unobtrusively in smaller spaces such as at the side of your house, a passageway, or on a patio.

The planed timber gives a more sleek, refined look, blending well in a variety of garden settings and greatly reducing the chance of splinters. A handy lift up lid keeps your logs sheltered and enables easy access. Felt is supplied to add an extra layer of protection from the elements to the lid. The slatted design enables airflow around your stored logs –  this means they can dry and will burn more efficiently. Many of our customers like to personalise their log storage boxes and we are confident that yours will look great in any colour. Shire recommends you use Protek Paint, available to purchase from elbec in a wide variety of colours. Whether you love a natural, wood stained look or perhaps more bold, bright colours, Protek has a colour to suit any taste.

Features

Constructed from planed boards with 34x34mm framing, the log box is a sturdy proposition that will stand up well to anything the weather decides to throw at it. An OSB roof/lid is more than up to the task of keeping the logs stored inside well protected from the elements. 34x34mm floor joists are also included, providing a solid base onto which your box is placed while isolating it from ground contact. All the timber is pressure treated, ensuring a longer lifespan with less maintenance. Pressure treated timber is top of its class when it comes to long-lasting timber products, and this also means your log box is guaranteed for 10 years against rot (provided all manufacturer’s care instructions are followed). Your log box is delivered flat packed with detailed instructions and all the fixings needed to complete assembly.

Upon Delivery
Delivery is made by Shire the manufacturer. Delivery of this item is typically made by a 17 ton flat-bed (similar size to a council refuse lorry). Delivery is typically between 7am and 7pm. The delivery drivers are only insured to deliver to kerb side or driveway. We would not risk damaging your property whilst delivering a product. Unfortunately we will not be able to go through your property. Deliveries are hand-balled off by the driver.

We would recommend against arranging for a third party to install the building before it's been delivered and checked that all parts are present, as we cannot be held liable for any third-party costs.

Installation option
If you are choosing the installation option after placing your order you’ll be contacted within 5 working days by Shire the manufacturer either by a text message or automated telephone message (the latter if a mobile number is not supplied). This message will supply you with the name of the website to go on to where you will be required to accept the terms and conditions for assembly. Any delay in accepting these terms and conditions may affect your timescale. Once you have accepted these terms and conditions you will be contacted during the timescale with a date for the delivery/assembly of your order. The installation option will extend your lead time by up to 15-25 working days. This may take longer during seasonal periods. Please be aware that the installation team will require full access to your garden, 18" clearance all around the building and a firm and level base. Shire's installation team will not bring a building through your home as they are not covered by insurance to enter a customer’s home.
