Benfield ATT have a reputation for
providing high quality, Advanced timber design
solutions for all aspects of timber framed buildings,
supplying both the domestic and private markets at
home and abroad.
Show Stoppers!
In September of 1998, we provided
the "Central Feature" at the Alexandra
Palace Self Build Show, hosted by "Build it"
magazine. The central feature was an example of one of
the large range of "Garden Lodges" which
Benfield ATT manufacture and erect.
The response from the show was so enormous that we
were unable to satisfy the demand. To address
this we invested heavily in R&D to overcome the
time consuming elements of manufacture. In the
relatively small quantities envisaged, the earlier
design was not thought to be a problem, as it only
represented a fringe activity to our core business of
supplying timber framed houses and commercial
structures.
Evolution
Our brief was to design and engineer
a system to meet all demands. It had to be totally
flexible in its design principles and to be able to
offer virtually any design shape from a standardised
set of components. It had to meet/exceed the stringent
building regulation requirements, whilst at the same
time offer unrivalled value for money. But most of
all, it had to have appeal.
We believe we have achieved this
design brief in full. Judge for yourself if you
think that we have!
Materials: (For full
specification see
web sheet……)
All garden and leisure lodges are
manufactured from high-grade components that have been
sourced specifically to maximise the overall
performance of the structure.
Long Life Flexibility with Economy
Our lodges can be purchased in their
most basic form, then upgraded when required to suit
specific requirements. You can save on the
initial cost, whilst maintaining flexibility to
enhance the structure at any point in the future.
All lodges are designed to take
"office loading" so lodges can easily be
used for as many purposes throughout its long life
span.
Design & Size
All garden and leisure lodges share
the same attributes: · Large range of standard
designs and shapes in both single and two stories. ·

system, customer's individual design requirements can
