Why is Apex delivered in several pieces?

Modified on Tue, 17 Feb at 12:52 PM

Apexes are partially assembled before the diagonal cuts are made in our factory. For smaller cabins, the apex can often be delivered as a single piece. However, to keep the pack compact and reduce the risk of damage, the apex may sometimes be packed as several separate parts.


In some cabins (flat roof or multi-room cabins), apex sections must be installed row by row because they intersect with other logs. Carefully check that you have all the parts and assemble them in the correct order.


Due to their design, small pieces near openings—such as purlin slots or tenon ends—may break loose. These pieces are not structurally critical and will be hidden under the roof boards. Since each apex logs is fixed to the lower log and also purlins must be screwed to the apex, these parts will be properly secured during installation. You can proceed with installing them and continue building the cabin.

If end piece is completely detached, secure it by screwing it in place according to the drawing provided below.
