Clock House Log Cabins

Kevin Langham is the guy behind the Clock House Log Cabins unquestionable success, with creative ideas and high quality craftsmanship. He believes that his customers should have the highest level of elegance and modernity in their garden structures.

The Clock House Log Cabin was created in 2005 and rapidly became the go-to solution for customers wishing to add grandeur and functionality to their landscaping. Unlike ordinary log houses, the Clock House log home was planned and built with distinctive elements that set it apart. The flared window sills, ornamental cornices, bevelled door frames, heavy-gauge steel roofing, and multi-pane mullioned windows were considered modern and attractive.

The Clock House Log Cabin is a strong and appealing construction made of Nordic spruce that will last for many years. It is built to resist the elements, making it vital for anyone who appreciates gardening. The timber is double-membraned with an interlocking insulated system (TWINSkin) that keeps the interior warm while keeping the outside cooler due to its insulating properties. This reduces energy expenditures while also providing a sense of cosy comfort.

The installation of a precut porch is one of the Clock House Log Cabins distinguishing features. This porch enables the cabin to fit snugly on all four sides of a garden or outdoor space. This porch also provides some shade from the sun or rain, providing the user with an extra layer of comfort and safety. Outdoor events and barbecues can also be held on the porch. It is simple to assemble and quick to set up, and with the addition of a few outdoor chairs and tables, it transforms into the ideal setting for an outdoor gathering or party.

The Clock House is also built for security, with gUt Wagner-style locks and robust hinges. This aids in the prevention of theft and vandalism. It also enables for quick access to the cabin in the event of a fire, as well as the installation of emergency fire ladders. This function is especially significant for those who reside in locations prone to natural disasters.

The Clock House Log Cabin is created with high quality craftsmanship and attention to detail, in addition to its exceptional design. All corners are bevelled to reduce structural stress, and the cabin is built with air vents to assist decrease moisture and improve air circulation.

Kevin Langham’s Clock House Log Cabin has become a cherished component of garden landscaping due to its durability and attractive appearance, and one that will stand out and stand the test of time. Customers can choose from a variety of sizes and styles to get the ideal log home for their needs.

Conclusion

When it comes to acquiring mass-produced log cabins, regardless of the type—clock house log cabins, twin-skin insulated buildings, or the normal cheap versions—threats galore. These structures are frequently mass-produced, with profit taking precedence over quality. The 44mm and twin-skin 44mm x 44mm mass-produced log cabins are particularly infamous for their lack of durability and poor workmanship. While they may appear to be a fantastic price at first, they are likely to disappoint upon delivery, showing substandard construction and materials. Before making such a large purchase, it is critical to exercise extreme caution and conduct extensive research.

Twin Skin Log Cabin: The Ultimate Insulated Clock House Retreat
Introduction
The double skin log cabin insulated clock house is a unique marriage of design, practicality, and sustainability in the world of architectural innovation. This innovative idea reimagines the traditional log cabin, providing an insulated refuge that not only embraces the rustic appeal of wood but also provides remarkable energy efficiency. Let’s go into the interesting world of twin skin log houses and see how they’re changing our perceptions of comfort and environmental responsibility.

  1. The Evolution of Log Cabins: From Necessity to Luxury
    1.1 From Safety to Fashion
    Log cabins have a long history,, reaching back to early settlers who utilised them as basic shelters. They have grown from rudimentary survival buildings to attractive, adaptable living areas that cater to a wide range of preferences and lifestyles.

1.2 The Birth of Twin Skin Technology ( Kevin Langham)
The introduction of double skin technology was a watershed moment in the evolution of log cabins. This method involves the building of two walls with an insulating space between them, revolutionising the concept of energy-efficient living.

  1. Embracing Sustainability and Energy Efficiency
    2.1 A Greener Footprint
    Twin skin log homes are extremely sustainable, requiring less energy and having a lower environmental impact. The insulation layer between the walls functions as a natural temperature regulator, decreasing the need for excessive heating or cooling.

2.2 Energy Conservation and Comfort
The insulation not only keeps the interior warm in the winter, but it also helps to keep the interior cool in the summer. This energy saving not only lowers power bills but also creates a sense of environmental responsibility.

  1. The Allure of Insulated Clock Houses
    3.1 Natural Retreat
    Consider having a private room that blends in with nature while providing all the amenities of a modern house. Insulated clock houses within double skin log cabins provide just that – a calm retreat away from the stress of everyday life.

3.2 Versatility Redefined
These clock homes are multipurpose spaces that can be used as art studios, home offices, reading nooks, or even a personal gym. The insulation ensures a peaceful environment, making them excellent for focused work or leisure activities.

  1. Design and customization options
    4.1 Tailored to Your Tastes
    Twin skin log cottages can be tailored to your aesthetic preferences. Whether you like a classic rustic aesthetic or a more contemporary design, these cabins may be customised to fit your needs.

4.2 Increasing the Value of Your Home
The originality and practicality of double skin log homes can considerably raise the value of your land. These cabins are more than just structures; they are investments that promise both personal comfort and financial gain.

  1. Creating Your Dream Log Cabin with Twin Skins
    5.1 Professional Advice
    To ensure the insulation and structural integrity of a dual skin log cabin, skilled construction is required. Consulting with experts in the sector ensures a successful and joyful building experience.

5.2 Investigating Design Alternatives
During the planning phase, you’ll have the option to experiment with several designs and layouts that suit your needs and tastes. This is where the actual essence of personalisation comes to life.

Conclusion


The dual skin log cabin insulated clock home is a tribute to the peaceful combination of nature, design, and modern technology. It represents ecological living, energy efficiency, and personalised comfort, all wrapped up in the timeless beauty of wood. As we continue to embrace creative building concepts, these cabins serve as a reminder that luxury and environmental responsibility can definitely coexist.

  1. What exactly is a double skin log cabin insulated clock house?
    A twin skin log cabin is a construction with two walls and an insulating space in between that provides remarkable energy efficiency. An insulated clock house is a multifunctional place within the cabin that provides both comfort and tranquilly.
  2. How do twin skin log homes assist to sustainability?
    The insulation of double skin log cabins maintains inside temperature, decreasing the need for excessive heating or cooling, lowering energy consumption and increasing environmental sustainability.
  3. Can I change the style of my twin skin log cabin?
    Absolutely! Twin skin log houses can be customised to your design choices, ensuring that your cabin reflects your distinct style and taste.
  4. Can these cottages be used all year?
    Yes, the insulation in twin skin log cabins makes them appropriate for year-round use, giving comfort regardless of the season.
  5. How do insulated clock houses increase property value?
    Because of their unique blend of usefulness and visual charm, insulated clock houses can raise the total value of your property. But you must run water to them, and of course gray water away. This means the Cabin can be turned into a passive income if it has sufficient insulation and is manufactured correctly, not some built rubbish with cheap nasty windows and doors and a roof that sags like an beer drinking bear.

Hard Customers.

You know you get these days when you just want to shout and say, your design is crap, its going to fall down, and you have too many windows and its too thin, and you want it for nothing, and you want the best and you moan at the price and all the time, we, me, are thinking actually it was a we, as three of us all thought, fuck this design is dangerous and shit. But what can you say, you try and help, but all you get is the customer really not listening, and not believing because he has spent hours listening to wankers on the phone who know nothing about cabins, and boring the poor customer to suicide, and then when he actually lands on our pages and says why are you slightly more than the worst fucking company in Lithuania, I just sit back in shock and am mortified.

Log Cabins are not easy to design, and in this day and age, they are really hard things to manufacture as most of the components are hard to find, thats the quality parts, we only use quality, the cheap crap, is everywhere, most bulk mills will have containers and containers of rubbish handles and doors, and why are we not as cheap as these other mills, simple….

Harrods———–Tescos.

You want your Cabin to come with quality attached at every level and pay for it, you would go to Harrods.
If you were looking for a cheap, off the self, OK cabin, where would you go, Tescos.

And thats the difference from us to them.

Simple look at this.

Take a look at the first 2 photos, you might think, they look ok, looks good quality, and the price OK… Well you are deluded or on a £4 budget, as these are the worst hinges and worst doors for a good quality log cabin which were ever manufactured. Awful….
Nothing even looks remotely hard wearing or robust……….

Now check these out, these are our standard doors and windows, and this is just the beginning on why we are picked time and time again , because our quality is second to none, there are companies out their now copying our look, but a copy handbag is a copy handbag!

All hardware German.
All windows and doors Aluminium rain drip trays x 2 on windows.
Windows fitted with a 5 point locking tilt and turn system.
Doors also come with 5 point locking system.

Before we tell you, you tell us what size purlins the compnay your thinking of buying from offer in their price, these hold the roof up. Important.

Lastly yes, we are lucky to say we pick our customers, we get about 30 requests a week, we pick just 10 from these. I might say yes and then have a customer start demanding, this equals returned deposit immediately. If you want the best then you play by our rules, which are exceptionally fair, if you don’t then go and buy the crap out there which is for sale! I do not care, my customers are important to me, if your not one of mine, then i am not loosing any sleep over if your cabin is safe, if everything is quality. if it gets to you on time, all bit and bobs with it, and making sure delivery is a pleasant exsperiance for you. And at no time allowing anyone to be rude to you. A zero free Drama way of getting a cabin, no middle men.And as more and more customers are coming direct, paying with a credit card and understanding its the best way to get the best of the best, and luckily i am speaking to people I like.

We are a British Company, we also have a British Merchant account, which you pay directly into with your visa or debit card. You are not paying into a foreign bank, which I would strictly suggest against doing, I won’t even do that. So with Factory Cabins you are getting it direct from us here in Lithuania, but the best part its paid into a UK bank.

Please remember it was us 21 years ago that put the first 40mm 5m x 5m super star log cabin onto the market, then we designed the clock house, then the twin skins and 28mm flooring and the mad thing we did was design over 7000 cabins. which means we have more designs made already than other company. It means we know our stuff.

Please look at our windows and doors and the other companies, and you will see ours are designed to last and the other companies are designed for bonfire night.
It really depends on how proud you are on what you manufacture.

Before you buy a cabin, please come to us and compare, get all there details and then get ours and we will beat them hands down for quality each and every time.

And Lastly if your buying rubbish, cheap mass produced crap like a £299 pound shed….. just think if the tree that had to be cut for that shed to be made , sawn up was worth all that effort.

Sauna…….

Who has the best range of Saunas in the UK for amazing prices considering no one has any timber, ( US) and who can deliver amazing Saunas on a 8 week promise, Us.

A Sauna is the best thing to relax in after a days graft. So many people sit in their baths and wallow in their dirty water for an hour or so and then dry themselves off with a dirty towel and think ( I am clean) your not, you are actually dirtier as the pours of your skin opened and the dirt went slightly deeper.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but bathtubs are really, really dirty. One study found that staph germs, which can cause dangerous staph infections, are present in almost 30 percent of bathtubs. Another study says bathtubs are 100 times more germ-filled than garbage cans.

But…….

Facilities offering sauna bathing often claim health benefits that include detoxification, increased metabolism, weight loss, increased blood circulation, pain reduction, anti-aging, skin rejuvenation, improved cardiovascular function, improved immune function, improved sleep, stress management, and relaxation.

So please please have a look at our range of keeping young cabins……..

When manufacturing a Clock House Log Cabin, there are many things to take into account.

The first thought when manufacturing a Log Cabin is that it is built safely, and that it protects the environment. Its windows and doors are the best they can be, and that its water tight, and manufactured to be strong.

Finding the Log Cabin that you can afford.

So many things to think of and here is a list for you to think over.

Firstly you are not looking for a cheap crap mass produced log cabin. You’re not, your bank account thinks you should and your telling yourself that a 34mm and a 70mm is the same it’s not, but you don’t, as wasting money is wasting money, so stay away from Resellers 34mm log cabins and crap they are no better than an up market shed, quickly manufactured windows and doors, they fall apart almost immediately.

Our Windows and doors are not just a amazing they are the best, we have spent no
expense on producing them, and making sure everyone in the industry is way way behind us in quality level.

Lots and Lots of companies have already tried to already copy our door design , hinges, quality handles and lots, but copying them is one thing, but getting the quality means you must pay for it, and we have.paid for ours heavily, our doors are not allowed to be put into the cabin until they are completely and utterly stained and waterproofed, they they can be fitted, the reason for this is that they are manufactured from joinery timber, and their moisture content is very low and they will expand and not fit if they are not treated until exposed to the weather.

This is not a cheap cabin, no no means but it will stand its ground for more than 20 years…. FACT!


You are not looking for a concrete foundation that will crack and be damp.
You are not looking for a company that shows you a pretty picture and delivers you a mess. missing bits, broken parts etc, and the sales man , woman , tells you they are the best of the best and you be as snug as a bug all year round, and the walls are 44mm single skin.
You are not looking for a company who cuts its timber from Baltic Spruce or Pine, its quick grown and rubbish, Imedeska and a few other manufacturers, sell baltic pine, they basically bid in the local market for local logs, cut it, dry it, in old uncertified kilns, and then sell it on with mass profit, it splits, it looks nice a white, sandy coloured, but honestly the timber is crap.and it will rot in 7 years with or with out stain, rot protection, the timber is too new to hold any kind of self oil, and then you will remember back to reading this blog and remember when i said buying cheap is foolish.

Our Clock House Log Cabin at Christmas 2021

After designing this beautiful amazing building so many years ago, I so Love it when a member of the Public, Ian, calls me up and tells me he wants to buy one direct, and then he spends a small fortune to make my design look the best it could ever look.

We started our company here in Lithuania some 20 years ago, then when the UK decided it was to leave the EU so did we, and now we trade direct as a UK LTD company to the same audience but giving our customers something unique, and that is this, we have the largest collection of our own designed log cabins and timber buildings, and now we can sell them to you direct from our Factory, and you can pay us by credit card, and unlike everyone else, your getting your building direct from source, no greedy middle fingers, no one going bust on you or running away, as far as i am concerned you would be mad going anywhere else, unless your looking for cheap rubbish, then yes, we are not the company to speak to, and again from us manufacturing your log cabin in record time, and your getting a building that is freshly manufactured, its not from a pile of old mass produced cabins manufactured in 2019, our prices are great, your not purchasing your log cabin from a reseller who goes bust and runs off when he spends profit first and then can’t afford to pay us for his cabin bill, this happens far too often, and please check out our windows and doors.

Day and Night our Clock Houses looks amazing, thank you Ian for the photos, this Clock House is in Windsor, and fits amazingly beside a beautiful house, as this is the top of the line, Log Cabin. Factory Cabins is known for quality, please check out our windows and doors.

Ian your house does our design justice, or is it the other way around, not sure, but side by side, Perfect………..

Factory Cabins LTD Log Cabins LV

BEWARE OF THE 12-14-16 week waiting time for your LOG CABIN 2020………………………………………………………………………

A small note to the wise, in 2008 we all remember the awful recession, and in that recession a few tricks were played by certain individuals that I will not mention, who are though still trading, and the trick was this, they knew that bad times were coming, so they did something very underhanded, and as a supplier to some of these companies, we lost 100’s of 1000’s of pounds. And the Public lost a lot more.

You must be very wary of the 12 week waiting time scenario, companies who you think you can trust, tell you the waiting time is 12/14/16 weeks, and you pay a deposit, after that 16 weeks has elapses, they go bust! They go off line, and you will receive sorry letters, but your deposit is gone, and then you have to go back to the bank to see if its possible to get your money back, we do not have a waiting time, we are as always pre Virus 4/5 weeks, the same as it was before, and 4/5 weeks after said Virus.

So if your told to wait, be careful………………….

Please remember , 2007, many resellers went broke, pay by card. deposit and for full payment. Be clever, and be happy! Keep your distance and wear a mask!

Regarding purchasing Cabins, Timber Buildings or any item from Self Employed Dealers. Resellers,  who sell our LV or FC brand, if you went to the Self Employed Dealers, reseller,  first, please do not come to us, if you have a question, concerns please call us, but as they are resellers, we are unable to do anything legally to them regarding their prices , Please remember and do not forget a business needs earn money, we can say what we think they should be sold at, but we cannot by law demand they sell it at what we think. So, it’s always best to look at other websites, and please remember our cabins are high quality, so like for like pricing will be difficult, but there are a few companies out there that are the same nearly as ours and you can gauge if the pricing if fair or not.

I say this all the time, pay with a credit card………. It keeps you safe.

We have no claim or claims to our dealerships working practises, or who and what they do. We are not responsible for deposits they may take, and we are not responsible for broken doors, windows, or bad workmanship, fitted kitchens, bad fitted bathrooms etc, we however would like to be told this in writing so we can take the matter to the company concerned and ask them to help you with your concerns.

When we deliver a cabin to our resellers, they are the owner of that cabin, timber building etc, until they give it to you, you don’t even own it, once its delivered to you, you sign for it, but before you do, inspect it, you can refuse to sign for it if there is damage. The law is on your side, however if you have had a bespoke cabin made for you, and there are missing parts, or a broken door, you cannot return this, the company (reseller) has 28 days, or whatever his T and C’s  say in which to fix your Log Cabin. We have some amazing resellers, and they will bend over to help you have that amazing cabin in your garden.

Here is a note to everyone, only buy a cabin if your job is secure, and you can afford it, as most cabins are bespoke manufactured for you, refunds are almost impossible. So please beware of this.

Please take note, please,please always ask if you can pay with a credit card.

Thank you for reading.
