TRADITIONALLY MADE TIMBER BUILDINGS

Your building will be made with large prefabricated timber framed panels. This makes installation easier than many of our other buildings which are supplied as loose components. However, the large panels are difficult to deliver.

  • The picture above shows a building which has just been delivered.
  • Our competitive price includes kerbside delivery with a single driver.
  • Some of the panels are often large and heavy so the driver is unable to move them far away from the lorry.
  • A suitable space is required at the front of the property where the panels can be unloaded.
  • The panels can be leaned upright against a wall or laid flat on a drive or a lawn.

THE DELIVERY VEHICLES

  • The picture above shows one of the smaller delivery vehicles, with the panels laid flat. It carries 4-6 timber buildings.
  • The picture below shows one of the larger delivery vehicles, with the panels stored upright. It carries 10-12 timber buildings.

  • Please advise if access for a large lorry is difficult.
  • Reasonable access to your property and parking directly outside is assumed.
  • Please contact us if there are any low bridges, narrow bridges, weight limits, width limits, parking restrictions, unloading restrictions or narrow lanes at or near your property.
  • If the lorry access to your property is difficult the drivers can often carry the panels a short distance.
  • Our larger lorries are bigger than the large bin lorry pictured below.
  • Please advise if a large bin lorry cannot easily park outside your property.

ACCESS FOR LARGE PANELS

  • The panels can normally be carried into most gardens, even if the access is narrow.
  • Although very large the panels are only a few inches thick.
  • The picture below shows a narrow gate and passageway through which large panels can be carried.

  • It may not be possible to carry the panels into the back garden if there are height restrictions along the route.
  • Some height restrictions can be easily removed to provide unrestricted access.
  • The picture below shows a piece of wood at the top of a gate which can be easily removed with a screwdriver.

  • The picture below shows a brick arch which may restrict access for the largest panels.
  • If you are concerned about the access for large panels at your property please contact us.
  • We can advise the largest panel size for your building and help you plan the delivery.
