Our patented interlocking double tongue and groove system has been perfected over more than two decades:

• Each log has precisely cut tongues and grooves that lock together securely
• The system creates an incredibly strong bond that keeps all parts firmly connected
• This method provides superior structural integrity and weather resistance
• The interlocking design allows for natural wood movement while maintaining a tight seal

Toutes les maisons et cabanes en rondins Nida sont équipées d’un plancher entièrement lambrissé à rainure et languette avec des solives pré-fixées qui reposent sur la face inférieure du plancher.

Yes, ©Nida log houses are suitable for year-round living, but the suitability depends on the wall construction type you choose and your local climate conditions.

Best Options for Year-Round Living:

70mm Single Wall: Suitable for mild climates with moderate winters. The thick solid wood provides natural insulation (R-value ~0.9-1.2) and thermal mass that helps regulate interior temperatures.

Twin Wall Insulated Systems: These are optimal for year-round residential use:

• 44+50+44mm Twin Wall (138mm total): Excellent for most residential applications with R-value ~2.5-3.5
• 44+100+44mm Twin Wall (188mm total): Premium option for cold climates with R-value ~4.0-5.0

Enhanced Construction Options: The wood cladding or fiber cement cladding systems (154-163mm total thickness) provide excellent year-round performance with superior weather protection.

Important Considerations:

Climate Matching: Your local climate determines which wall system you need. Harsh winters require the higher-performance twin wall systems, while milder climates may be adequately served by 70mm single walls.

Additional Insulation: Even with thicker walls, you may want to add floor and roof insulation for optimal year-round comfort and energy efficiency.

Heating Systems: You’ll need appropriate heating systems for winter use – wood stoves, electric heating, or other suitable methods depending on your setup.

Building Regulations: For permanent residential use, check local building codes as you may need to meet specific thermal performance standards and obtain proper permits.

The key is matching the wall construction to your intended use and climate conditions. Our sales team can help you determine the most suitable option based on your specific location and requirements.

We strongly recommend checking with your local planning authority before ordering. Yes, you likely need planning permission for a cabin, as it depends on the country, region, location, size, and purpose of the cabin, with residential houses always requiring permission. To determine if your project needs approval, you must contact the local planning authority in your specific country and region, providing details about your cabin’s design and location.

Factors Determining the Need for Permission

• Purpose of the cabin:
A small storage shed may be allowed, but a cabin for living, as a guest house, or for renting out will typically require planning permission.

• Size and Height:
There are often size and height restrictions for outbuildings. Cabins exceeding a certain height or footprint will likely require planning permission.

• Location:
Proximity to property lines, nearby listed buildings, or special conservation areas can trigger the need for permission.

• Type of Land:
Building on agricultural land often has specific rules and requires approval.

• Local Regulations:
Each country and even local authorities within a country have their own specific planning regulations and guidelines.

Steps to Take

1. Identify the Country/Region:
Determine the specific country and local authority (e.g., county or city council) where the cabin will be built.

2. Research Local Rules:
Check the websites or contact the local planning department to understand their specific rules and thresholds for outbuildings and log cabins.

3. Consult with the Local Authority:
Engage with the local planning authority (LPA) to discuss your project and understand the requirements for your specific situation.

4. Prepare Documents:
Be ready to provide site plans, scale drawings, and other documents required for your application.
