Allwood Cabin Kits

Allwood products are created from wood that is imported from Scandinavia and the Baltic States. The business offers top quality products at prices that are reasonable, whether they are premanufactured or kits for do-it-yourself people.

A cabin kit will come with the required materials, but it is the responsibility of the property owner to check into local regulations about needed permits, codes to be met, and other local restrictions or rules.

Generally, a foundation should be prepared for any building. While a concrete foundation is the best choice, anything firm and sturdy that can support the weight of the cabin is sufficient.

Assembly of these kits is doable by anyone with the included instructions. Some building experience will make it easier, but the process is clearly delineated, and the instructions are complete. The instructions are primarily visual with a parts list and drawings. Going through the information ahead of time is a good plan, as it allows assemblers to be sure they understand them.

Basic building tools are necessary, such as hammer, tape measure, level, screwdriver, pliers, safety glasses, gloves, a ladder, etc. Getting a group together to build it will go faster, but two people can handle the construction of most of the kits from Allwood. Immediate assembly is highly recommended, as prolonged storage can result in the wooden parts warping.

Once the Allwood getaway cabin is assembled, paint or stain it as soon as possible to help protect the wood from the weather.

These cabins range in size from tiny (113 square feet) to expansive (1100 square feet). Because most of these are small, it is possible to build a cabin for under $10000. Allwood also offers add-ons such as storage, extra rooms, and extra wall or floor planks.

Roof shingles are sold separately.

Allwood Eagle Point (1108 square feet)

The largest Allwood cabin available, this two-story home has 712 square feet downstairs and 396 square feet upstairs. Additional wall planks can increase the ceiling height on both floors. This cabin can be custom designed for walls, doors, and windows to allow for the desired rooms and lighting. Its contemporary look allows it to be built in urban locations as well as on off-grid property.

Add-Ons

Extra Layer of Wall Planks for Escape

To add about 5.5” to the height of the walls of the Escape, order one of these with the kit. Two may be used to increase the height by about 11”; however, for stability, it is not recommended to add more than that. This will give enough height to add a stand-alone loft inside the cabin.

Extra Layer of Wall Planks for Claudia

3 extra layers of wall planks add an additional four inches per layer to the top of the walls of the Claudia cabin to make room for a loft area for storage or sleeping.

8’ Open Canopy Storage

This canopied area can be added to any Allwood building. Easy to assemble, the storage area is made from Nordic Spruce and provides enough area for items such as bikes or lawn implements.

Add-on Room

Add a closet or bathroom or other small space to the inside of an Allwood cabin. About 12 square feet of floor space inside this room kit will allow a variety of possibilities. A sliding door is made with frosted plexiglass. The included ceiling can be applied and used for storage area, or left off to help the room integrate.
