How to get the best from your Timber building

This page covers our recommendations from the Kirton Sectional Team, from bases to maintenance after the team has fitted your brand new building!

Bases

We strongly recommend good groundworks for our timber buildings to be fitted onto. Slab/concrete bases are the two best options for this. Most importantly we require the base to be square and level! – Good foundations lead to fewer issues for our fitting team and a better finish overall.

Level Base

Bearers

Before the Timber Building is erected, we can provide at a cost, timber bearers to go underneath the building. These have multiple benefits such as raising the timber building off the floor (2/3”) allowing air flow underneath the building allowing the floor to dry out in poor weather. They also prevent the building from being permanently sat on a wet base. Lastly they are a key tool to our erectors, if the base provided isn’t 100% level, these will allow the erectors to level the base on site.

Security Options

Bolted Hinges

Bolted Hinges – These can be added onto any building for added security. They are designed for outward opening timber doors and are designed to protect exposed hinges, which are targeted for kicking or barging by intruders.

Deadlock

Locks – Really compliment bolted hinges, an upgraded lock e.g. to a five lever mortice deadlock. This is our most secure lock option.

Roofing

Heavy Duty Felt

Heavy Duty Felt – We can upgrade all of our Shed spec buildings to include Heavy Duty Felt. Heavy Duty felt offers the benefit of being a thicker grade of polyester based felt and can extend the time between re-felting your building. It also offers a 6 month guarantee.
