16. WHAT ARE THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BASE ?

You should pay attention to these basic facts to choose the place you will locate your cabin.

1. Avoid swampy areas

2. Avoid steep grades if possible

Flat pack cabins do not require any special foundations. However, it is always good to level the ground. We recommend you to level and prepare the site before the day of delivery. You can level the ground as much as possible, in order to avoid the possible balance problems of doors and windows. The container units can be located on a rigid ground (like concrete, asphalt, etc) or they can be easily located and assembled on any ground (including the soil) by using supporting blocks for leveling the units.

These options will help to prolong the life of your cabins. It is always advised to use the supporting blocks if the ground is not concrete. You should locate blocks on the corners for any sized cabin. In addition to the corners; for the 4m cabin locate another block to middle of each of the long sides, for the 6m cabin put a block under each of the load bearing posts.  Supporting blocks should be solid and durable, preferably concrete block, briquet or hard wooden block.
