 Hi-Tech System
Our HI-TECH SYSTEM is our most popular system and frequently requested by our customers.

Our HI-TECH SYSTEM provides our customers with many options. If you are wanting more dry wall interiors, our HI-Tech System is a great option for you! This system has versatility and is great for those that want a large amount of wood or a mixture of drywall and wood.

Our logs are precision milled, full round with double tongue & groove for superior interlocking strength and rigidity. The logs are machined for a rustic finish with a 3 degree angle on the top and bottom log which improves wall stability and provides natural water runoff. It's tight fit saddle notch corners form a solid interlocking system that meet our high strength and seal standards. Our thru-bolt connecting system interlocks walls and corners, bolted from top to bottom with a constant spring tension on the walls for extra strength and stability to maintain weather-tightness and energy efficiency.
