Optional Extras

Insulation & Lining

Insulate and line your building to get the most out of your space all through the year, an insulated building will keep your building cool in the summer heat, and warm in the colder months.

We insulate your walls, floor and ceiling ensuring you get the best possible results.

To insulate we use 40mm Celotex boards in your floor and ceiling, and in your roof we use double sided aluminium foil, double layer bubble sheets.

We then offer two options for lining your building:

Option 1 is with 12mm T&G boards from floor to ceiling

Option 2 is T&G below a dado rail, and hardboard above

Both options include skirting board and back frames on doors and windows.

We also offer an upgrade to 90mm Celotex, this upgrade also requires the framework upgrade from 2"x2" to 2"x4".

Wood Burners

Our wood burners are hand built to be the perfect accompaniment for your building, creating a cosy atmosphere along with heating your building.

We provide the full service, supplying your wood burner, fitting kit and installation.

Our handmade wood burner includes a glass panel in the door, the burner itself will sit upon a hand crafted slate base, surrounded by heat protection for your walls and the twin lined flue will exit your building.

• Wood burner dimensions height 540mm to top of plate, 590mm to top of flue collar, width max 370mm, depth 440mm.

Upgrade your chassis to a steel working chassis, allowing your building to move from location to location.

We offer two types of chassis depending on the way you need to transport your building will determine the type of chassis you require.

Both chassis can be towed around your land but are not for legal road use.

• Classic Working Chassis: wheels are to the side of the building giving you the traditional look of a Shepherds Hut, these chassis can also be put onto a trailer for road transportation, but are usually too wide to do so.
• We can also build your building onto a road legal trailer if required. Please enquire for info.

Wheels

All of our wheels are locally cast Iron, upon a fixed wooden and steel chassis.

These chassis and wheels are for display purposes only, if you wish to have a working chassis please see our Chassis options.
