Whether you need a garden office, a quiet home office, or a guest house with more space for your guests, you will be happy to know that Shedstore’s log cabins are not only beautiful but functional as well. In this article, you will see five splendid products by Shedstore and learn why they stand out in a rather saturated market.
Palmako Andrea 6. Contemporary Log Cabin Sliding Doors
The Palmako Andrea 6. This 4m by 4m Contemporary Log Cabin is a fine example of contemporary design at its best. This cabin is designed with smooth finishes and large glass windows to suit those who want to build a beautiful garden home office or a comfortable garden sanctuary. The cabin is built from Nordic spruce and is designed to last a long time, but the finish is left untreated, so you can paint it yourself if you wish.
Key Features:
- Nordic Spruce Construction: The walls of the cabin are built out of 44mm Nordic spruce, which is quite resistant to moisture and can easily withstand all types of climate. This material is long-lasting and hence a worthy investment for any homeowner who wants their furniture to stand the test of time.
- Sliding Glass Doors: This cabin has two large sliding doors made of glass with aluminum frames; hence, the interior of the cabin is filled with natural light, which is ideal for working or just relaxing.
- Customizable Finish: As it is, this cabin arrives in an untreated state, meaning you can paint or apply a wood treatment of your choice, and the cabin will blend perfectly with the rest of your garden.
- Tilt-and-Turn Windows: The additional windows are also equipped with the tilt-and-turn function, allowing for various options of ventilation, yet security is not an issue.
- Thick Walls and Roof: The floor and roof are made of 19mm tongue-and-groove, which allows for very good insulation, making it comfortable during hot and cold seasons.
Comparison:
Unlike other cabins where manufacturers may cut corners on the choice of materials, the Palmako Andrea uses Nordic spruce, which is stronger and more durable than materials used in most other cabins. The modern aluminum frames of the sliding doors are quite a deviation from the traditional cabin looks and a feature that is not easy to find in this kind of model.

Comparison:

It has a high-specification roof and double glazing, providing better protection against the elements and increased efficiency.
