Detailed Specification

Please note: all imperial measurements are approximate and Shire log stores are made from metric measurements. We would recommend that the base is at least 50mm bigger in each direction.

Description

The 6 x 3 Large Heavy Duty Log Store has an excellent capacity for the storage of logs. It allows you to keep your logs in a dry, sheltered space. This means that when it comes time to burn them, perhaps in your log burner or on a BBQ, they’ll be in the ideal condition for getting a perfect fire started. The 3ft depth of the log store also ensures the footprint isn’t too large. This smaller depth means that it fits in more awkward spaces and will fit at the side of your house or a passage/alleyway.

Shire use only FSC certified timber that has been slow grown. Slow grown timber has a tighter grain which ensures extra durability, fewer knots, less sap, and longer life. The slatted design allows for proper aeration of your logs, meaning they can dry properly. Wet logs can cause many problems when ready to be used; it is therefore essential that your logs are stored correctly, away from the rain, and in a dry, airy environment. The clean, natural appearance is also right at home in a variety of styles of garden.

A robust framing gives the log store strength and an overlap roof provides a good level of protection from the elements. The log store is dip treated for protection during manufacture and transit. Dip treated products come with a 10-year guarantee against rot, provided you follow all the manufacturer’s instructions and care guidelines to ensure the guarantee remains valid. This includes using an appropriate product to treat your store after construction and carrying out periodic re-treatment. Shire recommends Protek Paint, available to purchase from elbec for a fantastic price. Protek have an excellent range of colours and stains while providing probably the best timber protection you can buy.

The Large Heavy Duty Log Store is supplied 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.
