BLACK PINES
BLACK PINES unique cabin escapes
teknoroof has had the privilege of working with Black Pines recently, not only supplying our unique LOKFOLD standing seam metal roofing for their distinctive woodland cabins, but also helping the company to install this unique material too. We are so pleased with the results, as are our clients who were looking for an elegant, contemporary aesthetic for their premium brand.
As an on-trend brand dedicated to providing accessible, high quality ‘nature experiences,’ these distinctive cabins needed to stand up to the tough challenges of rural environments. Both LOKFOLD and our KANOPY mm10 metal roofing (which you see on some of the cabins) more than measure up – equally highly durable and aesthetically pleasing
Additionally (and worthy of note) some of these cabins were intended to be used as chic outdoor saunas – testament to the robust and enduring quality of our metal roofing material.
The cabins are meticulously designed; with giant windows, incredibly cosy beds, roaring wood burners, en-suites and East-London-cool accessories.

LOKFOLD fixing details
Although there is no technically correct or incorrect end as a start point for a roof, the direction of the prevailing wind should be considered.
In general, each sheet is fixed to the substrate by two fixed clips towards the ridge of the roof, with sliding clips along the length of the slope. The upstand of the next sheet is then laid over and interlocks with the upstand of the tray already in position.
The first fold of the upstand is then formed manually as shown opposite, before mechanical crimping of the upstands using the power seamer.
The sliding clips allow the metal to expand and contract freely along its length. Across the width, the profile of the sheet allows expansion and contraction through a gap at the foot of each standing seam.
