Log Stores

Log Store Review

A good log store where wood can be kept to dry and season slowly is essential if you have an open fire or wood burning stove. Wet timber is no good for burning as it produces little warmth but lots of smoke and encourages tar to collect and block the chimney or flue. A well designed and robust log store, therefore, makes sense and you’ll find lots of them on GardenSite.

Slatted sides and a base that’s lifted off the ground encourage ventilation, this means the air circulates around the log store and seasons the wood by reducing its moisture content. A practical design that includes these features needn’t be entirely functional, many excellent log stores have a contemporary or retro appearance that will stylishly enhance your garden.

A good example of practical yet very handsome designs would be the Dorset collection which includes traditional as well as modern styles as exemplified by the Okeford and Oak log stores. Whether tall, small, long or thin, all Dorset log stores are built to the highest specifications using pressure treated Swedish redwood and some have a shingle roof option.

Many manufacturers will integrate a tool store that can be used to hold a chainsaw, axe or similar equipment together with kindling. The Zest and Forest log and tool stores are good examples, and Rowlinson also makes one similar along with a grey wash Heritage Log Store and more contemporary versions such as their Pinnacle and Black log stores.

High capacity, timber clad, double and triple log stores are made by the Garden Village, while Biohort and Trimetals offer versions constructed with hot dipped galvanized steel. These metal log stores can be completely enclosed and secured but are easily accessed when you want to add your retrieve any logs.
