Material Quality and Construction

The materials utilized in the Palmako Hanna are of commendable quality, though it’s noteworthy that the cabin comes with untreated wood, which may necessitate early weatherproofing efforts on your part. The interlocking log cladding is the star of the structure; experts commend this construction style for its superior durability and resistance to weathering. Impressively, this cladding method is used in 98% of the top 10% of log cabins surveyed.

The cabin’s walls are constructed with 34mm thick cladding, showcasing strength and insulation capabilities. This thickness is not just above average but is unique for its size category, making it an excellent choice for owners concerned about energy efficiency and durability.

The roof uses tongue and groove cladding, rated as the best form of roof construction according to our experts. This design approach is a hallmark of quality in nearly all top log cabins, and here we see a robust thickness of 19mm. Likewise, the floor features tongue and groove construction, again reflecting that commitment to quality and solid construction.

Overall, the Palmako Hanna performs well in both roofing and flooring categories; both elements contribute significantly to the cabin’s aesthetic and functional integrity.

In a market that boasts over 900 log cabin products, the Palmako Hanna holds a respectable position, ranking in the top 18% of this category. Given that we assessed over 114 comparable 10′ x 10′ log cabins, its expert score of 90 places it above average while being £2 less expensive than the average listing.

Moreover, for those seeking alternatives within the same space, we noted that the 12’x8′ Blake | 44mm Log Cabin offers a higher expert score of 97, albeit at a higher price point. This is worth considering if budget flexibility is an option for you.

Q: What type of flooring is used in this garden building, and how thick is it?

A: The flooring is made of Tongue & Groove construction, which is known for its strong and durable design. With a thickness of 19.0mm, this flooring is robust enough to withstand regular use and the wear and tear of garden equipment or heavy furniture. I appreciate this feature since it provides a solid foundation, enhancing the overall longevity of the building.

Q: Is the glazing in the windows single or double glazed?

A: The windows feature single glazing. While this can be a cost-effective option, it's important to note that single glazed windows may not provide the same insulation as double glazing. This could mean that during colder months, you might experience a chill inside the building, potentially affecting its comfort level. For those in milder climates, this may be less of an issue, but I recommend considering how you plan to use the space year-round.

Q: How high is the eaves and ridge of the building?

A: The eaves height is set at 2170.0mm, while the ridge height reaches 2850.0mm. These generous heights create a spacious interior feel, which can be particularly appealing for taller individuals or for setting up shelves without feeling cramped. In my expert opinion, this ceiling height significantly enhances the usability of the space, making it perfect for various activities such as workshops or recreational use.

Q: What are the dimensions of the doors, and how do they contribute to ease of access?

A: The door measures 1810.0mm in height and 1340.0mm in width, providing ample space for easy entry and exit. This is essential if you're planning to transport larger items in and out of the building. I find this to be a great advantage over narrower doors that could limit access. Plus, having a well-sized door enhances the overall practicality of the space, ensuring it meets diverse needs.

Q: Can you explain the advantages of the Tongue & Groove roofing?

A: The roof is also constructed with Tongue & Groove materials, boasting a thickness of 16.0mm. This type of roofing offers excellent durability and can be quite resilient against harsh weather conditions. The interlocking design helps prevent water ingress, which is a common issue with less robust constructions. From an expert standpoint, I see this as a significant plus, as it contributes to the shelter's overall longevity and reduces the need for frequent maintenance.

Q: What are the overall dimensions of the building?

A: The building has a depth of 3220.0mm (including overhang) and a width of 3220.0mm. At its base, the dimensions are slightly smaller, with a depth of 2800.0mm and a width of 2800.0mm. These substantial dimensions mean you'll have plenty of room for different uses, whether for storage, a workshop, or even a small garden office. I believe this size strikes a good balance between providing enough space without overwhelming a typical garden plot.
