Bargain Log Cabins Installation Guide
If you are installing the Log Cabin yourself we recommend that you spend some time looking at the log cabin
instructions and parts list. The parts list is specific to you building and shows idividual items, how many of each there is, a sketch
of every part and a code to identify them. There is also a plan of the wall sections giving the parts required for building that
elevation. We suggest that you sort your parts into piles of the same pieces if you can.

| Before erecting a Log Cabin it it very important to lay a firm and level base ideally from
concrete |
When you are ready to install your Cabin, check the components with the parts list
supplied |
|
|
| Lay the floor joists first, ensuring the correct spacing. Build the first logs of the walls
by using 2 half logs and 2 full logs (see your instructions for details) |
Follow your instructions to build the walls, making sure the positions of the windows
and doors are correct. (once high enough to support them you can put them in) |
|
|
| Lay the logs according to your instructions making sure any longer logs go in the
correct places. Fit the roof joists into the slots. |
Clad the roof by nailing through the tongue and groove boards into the roof joists (the last boards
may need cutting to size level with the roof length) |
|
|
| Cover the roof with the material of your choice. |
Fit all the fascia boards and edging. Then paint your cabin. |
