Tiger Bin Store - Single

Most of our wooden buildings will be treated with our standard water-based red cedar factory treatment. However, this treatment is temporary and will not last. You will need to re-treat your building as soon as possible, both internally and externally, using a high quality spirit/solvent treatment. 

Log Cabins are completely untreated and will therefore need to be treated as soon as possible both internally and externally, to prevent any water-damage. We would advise the use of a good quality spirit/solvent based treatment.

Wooden buildings should be re-treated annually as part of their standard maintenance.

It is essential that all garden buildings are assembled on a firm and level base constructed from an appropriate and durable material. 

Without the correct base, buildings may be very difficult to assemble. In many cases, an incorrect base may lead to future deterioration of the product if assembly cannot be completed correctly as a result. Problems may include doors dropping out of square and becoming difficult to open and close, and/or water leakage.

Assembling a garden building on an incorrect base is also likely to invalidate any guarantee that your product may carry.

For full details and examples of how to create an appropriate base visit our Build a Base Guide.

We would recommend using a specifically developed exterior paint or stain to colour your garden building. There are several brands that are available on the market: we would recommend choosing a product that has been purposefully-developed to coat timber garden buildings and fencing, and uses a higher grade water-repelling timber colour coating. 

With this in mind, we offer Protek Royal Exterior paint for use on Tiger buildings, if you are considering to paint directly on to the timber once it has been assembled. For the choice of colours available direct from Tiger, please see the selection here.

Every Tiger model has a set of helpful instructions to help assemble the building. A copy will be sent with your delivery, but there will be an electronic version on the product page in the DOWNLOADS section you can access. All the instructions can also be found in the Help Section in the Instructions library.

There should be an assembly video available to help put your building together. These cover different building types rather than individual building ranges, so while they are very helpful in showing how different building features are fitted please always use the instructions for your building model.

You can find the assembly video in the video player section on the product page, and also in the video library in the Help Centre - just click this link.
