The simple answer is as many as you like! The boxes stack on top of each other and can be simply bolted together using our pre drilled holes. If you decide to stack them higher you can secure them to a wall. Our boxes look great as a feature wall.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Our box depth is designed at 40 cm. This is designed so that the average chopped log size (typically 25cm) can be stacked inside 10-15cm away from the weather.

Question 6

Do they come in different sizes?

Accepted Answer

Yes and No– A lot of thought and design went into this and we are confident we have the optimum size for our boxes to insure stability, sturdiness and strength.   If you have a custom job that involves a large quantity please send us a message and we can look to produce a price and bespoke quote for you. For example we recently supplied 36 boxes to a Craft Beer bar that were using them for displaying beer bottles. We tweaked the sizes a little to facilitate his product. However this is only feasible if we are producing 20+ boxes due to production restraints.

Question 9

Corten – Rust Layer? What is Corten?

Accepted Answer

Corten is a Weathering Steel,  Corten resists the corrosive effects of rain, snow, ice, fog, by forming a coating of Orange – to dark brown oxidation over the metal, this prevents deeper penetration. In simple terms the steel is allowed to rust and that rust forms a protective coating that slows the rate of future corrosion. The famous Angel of the North Sculpture is made from Corten, it still looks the same today as it did 20 years ago.  Corten is now used in bridge building and skyscraper construction due to its high strength and weather resistance.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

This process normally takes a matter of weeks/months under normal weather.  However this can be quickly accelerated using one of the following products. Or by using a salt and water mix in a spray bottle, the process will only take 24-48 hours this way.

Question 11

Will the rust run off the boxes and stain my floor?

Accepted Answer

During the first couple of weeks of weathering there will be a small run off of rust. This can be simply wiped/washed off your surface.  Once the initial oxidisation process has taken place the boxes will seal themselves and any future run off will be minimal to none.
