Large Wooden Log Store 75x217x159cm for Outdoor Firewood Storage

The wooden log store 75x217x159cm provides a spacious and organised place for storing logs and firewood outdoors. At 217cm long, this model provides a wider storage area than more compact log stores and is suitable when you want to keep a larger supply of firewood neatly stored in the garden.

The log store measures 217cm long, 75cm deep and 159cm high, with a specified floor area of 1.62m². The combination of an integral timber floor, side panels, covered roof and open design provides a practical solution for sheltered and ventilated firewood storage.

Large Log Store with 1.62m² Floor Area

This wooden log store has a specified floor area of 1.62m². Its 217cm length provides more space for stacking logs than smaller models.

The 1.62m² figure refers to an area and should not be interpreted as firewood capacity in cubic metres. No confirmed storage capacity in m³ is specified for this model.

Log Store with 15mm Timber Floor

This model includes 15mm pressure-treated timber floorboards. The integral floor creates a defined surface within the structure on which the logs can be stacked.

The pressure treatment is specifically confirmed for the floorboards. The remaining timber components should not be described as pressure treated unless this is separately confirmed.

Even with an integral floor, the log store should be installed on a sufficiently level, firm and stable base.

10mm Wall Panels

The wall panels of the log store are 10mm thick. Together with the floor, roof and other timber components, they form the main structure of the firewood store.

Ventilation remains important when storing logs. The open design allows air to circulate around the firewood and helps moisture present in the timber to escape.

12mm OSB-3 Roof with Bituminous Covering

The roof consists of 12mm OSB-3 panels with a grey bituminous roof covering. The specified roof dimensions are 217x75cm.

The covered design helps shelter the stored firewood from direct rainfall from above. As this is an open log store, however, the complete structure should not be regarded as a fully waterproof storage building. Wind-driven rain and ambient humidity can still affect wood stored outdoors.

Maximum Roof Load of 30kg/m²

The specified maximum roof load is 30kg/m². This load limit should not be exceeded.

Accumulated snow, wet leaves and other debris can increase the load on the roof. Check the roof regularly and remove significant build-up when necessary.

Why Is Ventilation Important When Storing Firewood?

Air circulation helps moisture in the firewood to escape. Logs should therefore not be stacked unnecessarily tightly or enclosed in a way that restricts ventilation.

How quickly firewood dries depends on factors including the species of wood, log size, initial moisture content, stacking method, airflow, location and weather conditions. A ventilated log store supports the drying process but cannot guarantee a specific drying time or final moisture content.

How to Stack Logs in a Log Store

Stack the logs in an orderly and stable manner while leaving sufficient opportunity for air to circulate around the firewood. Neat stacking also makes individual logs easier to remove when required.

1. Choose a sufficiently level, firm and stable location.
2. Assemble the log store fully according to the supplied instructions.
3. Check the floor, roof and connections before loading.
4. Stack the logs carefully and securely.
5. Avoid packing the firewood unnecessarily tightly.
6. Keep ventilation around the logs as unobstructed as possible.
7. Do not exceed the specified maximum roof load of 30kg/m².

Does a Log Store Keep Firewood Dry?

A covered log store helps reduce the direct exposure of firewood to rainfall while allowing air to circulate around the logs. This combination is useful for outdoor firewood storage.

Because the structure is open, it cannot guarantee completely dry storage in all weather conditions. Wind-driven rain, ambient humidity and the position of the log store can all affect the stored firewood.

FSC-Certified Timber

FSC-certified timber is specified for this wooden log store. FSC certification relates to the certified sourcing and chain of custody of the timber in accordance with the applicable FSC requirements.

FSC certification does not mean that the timber is automatically maintenance-free or unaffected by outdoor conditions. Periodic inspection and appropriate maintenance remain important.

Where Should You Position a Wooden Log Store?

Position the log store on a sufficiently level, firm and stable base in a preferably well-ventilated outdoor location. The position should also allow rainwater from the roof and surrounding area to drain away.

Avoid locations where standing water regularly accumulates around the timber structure.

Firewood Storage for Wood-Burning Stoves, Fireplaces and Outdoor Fires

This wooden log store is suitable for storing logs intended for suitable fireplaces, wood-burning stoves and outdoor fires. Always follow the appliance manufacturer's instructions regarding the type and condition of fuel that may be used.

Suitable firewood, including kiln-dried products where specified, is also available separately from Intergard.

How to Assemble the Wooden Log Store

The wooden log store is supplied for self-assembly and includes wood screws and assembly instructions. The components can therefore be assembled at the intended installation location.

1. Prepare a sufficiently level and stable base.
2. Check all components and fixings before assembly.
3. Follow the supplied assembly instructions.
4. Use the supplied wood screws for the appropriate connections.
5. Check all connections after completing the assembly.
6. Make sure the structure is stable before loading it with firewood.

Maintaining a Wooden Log Store

Inspect the timber, floor, roof and connections periodically and carry out maintenance where necessary. Remove leaves and other debris from the roof to prevent unnecessary additional roof loading.

Whether additional timber treatment is required depends on the existing treatment of the individual components. If necessary, use a timber care product suitable for the relevant wood and for outdoor use.

Wooden Log Store or Firewood Rack?

A wooden log store is generally a larger covered outdoor structure, while a firewood rack usually refers to a simpler open frame for stacking logs. With its 217cm length, integral timber floor, wall panels and covered roof, this model is more accurately described in UK English as a large wooden log store.

What is the floor area of the log store?

The specified floor area is 1.62m². This is an area measurement and should not be confused with firewood capacity in cubic metres.

How much firewood will this log store hold?

No confirmed storage capacity in cubic metres is specified for this model. The actual amount of firewood that can be stored depends partly on log size and stacking method.

Will this log store hold 2m³ of firewood?

A capacity of 2m³ has not been confirmed for this model. This figure should therefore not be presented as a product specification.

Does the log store include a floor?

Yes, this model includes 15mm timber floorboards. The floorboards are specified as pressure treated.

Is the entire log store pressure treated?

Pressure treatment is specifically confirmed for the 15mm timber floorboards. It should not be assumed that all other timber components are pressure treated.

How thick are the wall panels?

The wall panels are 10mm thick.

What is the roof made from?

The roof consists of 12mm OSB-3 roof panels with a grey bituminous covering.

What are the roof dimensions?

The specified roof dimensions are 217x75cm.

What is the maximum roof load?

The specified maximum roof load is 30kg/m². This limit should not be exceeded.

Should snow be removed from the roof?

Snow should be monitored and removed when necessary to prevent the specified 30kg/m² maximum roof load from being exceeded. Wet leaves and other debris can also add to the roof load.

Is the roof completely waterproof?

The OSB-3 roof with bituminous covering helps shelter the storage area from direct rainfall. However, the complete open structure should not be regarded as a fully waterproof building.

Will the log store keep my firewood completely dry?

Completely dry storage cannot be guaranteed in all weather conditions. The roof reduces exposure to direct rainfall while the open design allows ventilation.

Why does firewood need ventilation?

Air circulation helps moisture in the wood to escape. Logs should therefore be stacked in a way that does not unnecessarily restrict airflow.

Can wet firewood dry in this log store?

Ventilated storage can support the natural drying process. Drying time depends on the initial moisture content, wood species, log size, stacking, airflow, location and weather conditions.

Is the timber FSC certified?

Yes, FSC-certified timber is specified for this log store. The certification relates to the certified sourcing and chain of custody of the timber.

Is the log store resistant to rot, mould and insects?

No general resistance to rot, mould or insects is confirmed in the available product specifications. These properties should therefore not be guaranteed for the complete product.

Where should I position the log store?

Position it on a sufficiently level, firm and preferably well-ventilated base. Avoid locations where standing water regularly accumulates around the structure.

Are the fixings and assembly instructions included?

Yes, wood screws and assembly instructions are included. The log store is supplied for self-assembly.
