Log Stores have several benefits:
-
Protection from the Elements: Storing firewood outdoors exposes it to rain, snow, and moisture, which can dampen the wood and hinder its ability to burn effectively. A log store provides shelter, keeping the firewood dry and seasoned, which improves its combustion efficiency.
-
Improved Air Circulation: Properly seasoned firewood requires adequate airflow to dry out and reduce its moisture content. Stacking firewood in a log store with open sides or slatted shelves allows air to circulate around the wood, promoting faster drying and reducing the risk of mould or rot.
-
Prevents Pest Infestation: Storing firewood directly on the ground or in piles can attract pests like termites, ants, and rodents. Elevating the firewood in a log store and keeping it off the ground helps prevent infestations and protects the wood from damage.
-
Organised Storage: A log store helps keep firewood neatly organized and prevents it from scattering across your outdoor space. It allows you to stack the wood in a stable manner, making it easier to access and use when needed.
-
Enhanced Safety: Storing firewood away from the exterior walls of buildings reduces the risk of termite infestation and minimizes the likelihood of firewood becoming a fire hazard during warmer months.
-
Aesthetic Appeal: A well-designed log store can complement your outdoor space and add visual interest to your garden or patio. Materials like Corten steel, wood, or brick can be used to create stylish and functional storage solutions that blend seamlessly with your landscape design.
When exposed to the elements, Corten Steel develops a protective layer of rust which adds to its aesthetic appeal and acts as a barrier against further corrosion making it an ideal material for outdoor structures. Corten Steel has many advantages such as:
-
Durability: Corten steel is highly durable and resistant to corrosion, making it ideal for outdoor use. It forms a protective layer of rust when exposed to the elements, which acts as a natural barrier against further corrosion, increasing the lifespan of the structure.
-
Weather Resistance: Corten steel is designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, including rain, snow, UV exposure, and extreme temperatures. Its weathering properties make it well-suited for outdoor environments without the need for additional protective coatings.
-
Aesthetic Appeal: Corten steel has a distinctive rusty appearance that develops over time, giving it a rustic and industrial look. Many people appreciate the natural, weathered appearance of Corten steel, which can add character and visual interest to outdoor structures like a log store.
-
Low Maintenance: Corten steel requires minimal maintenance compared to other materials. Once the protective rust patina forms, the steel's surface stabilises, reducing the need for ongoing maintenance or painting.
-
Strength: Corten steel is known for its high tensile strength, which makes it capable of supporting heavy loads without bending or warping. This strength ensures that a Corten steel log store can withstand the weight of stacked firewood and remain structurally sound over time.
-
Environmentally Friendly: Corten steel is a sustainable material choice as it is 100% recyclable and can be reused or repurposed at the end of its life cycle. Its longevity and low maintenance requirements also contribute to its eco-friendliness.
Please note, due to the natural weathering process the run-off from rainwater may stain the surface you have placed your Log Store upon. The risk of this happening is highest in the first 6 months of the weathering process.
