Indoor log storage

[Tom D]

Two or three nights worth! Thats efficient, that would go in my rayburn in 1 fill.

 

This is mine, we get through a lot as its doing central heating and hot water as well, I made the two log stores when we were renovating the house by boxing out two alcoves and re-opening two very old bricked up window openings. We load them from outside and collect from inside, keeps the mess down and lasts a week or so.

LOL, If I was building a house I would definitely do the same again. We get through so many that anything else just wouldn't be practical. we ran out the other day and I didn't get home till 9, I couldn't be arsed to bring a load so I popped to the yard and grabbed a couple of bags that we sell to the local garden centre. They sell them for £5, I managed to fit an entire bag in the rayburn firebox, so at those prices it would cost about £20-30 a day to keep it going...

Nice system!! Any snags with draughts or thermal bridging?? Is outside door insulated?? No worries about "uninvited" guests gaining access??

[Tom D]

The house is pretty draughty anyway, probably why we burn so much wood. I draught proofed the outer door but its not insulated.

 

If I was building from scratch I'd have the store designed around one of those tall supermarket trolleys that the shelf stackers use, You could have a few of them loaded up and then just wheel it into the store when needed.

I also have this very close to outside my back door i just tow it back to my mates plot and refill it. This system has worked very well for me last 3 years of having a wood burner fitted and saves a lot of handling the logs & also when the winter/cold season is over i just tow the log shelter trailer back to the plot and store it there for the summer etc

We use an old wrought iron basket, only lasts 1 night though.

I laid an oak floor and used the leftovers to build a log box and tv stand to match.

Must get/make something for the Rayburn in the kitchen to replace the stylish fish food plastic tubs. Only good thing about them is no sawdust on the floor.
