Cabins and
Baches

Enjoy the good life

At Fox Cabins we love what we do and that shows in our work. 

Our number one comment we get from prospective clients is “we’ve been around a few builders and these cabins are in a different class to what we have seen”. These are not run of the mill ‘sleepouts’, they are custom designed for you, high quality buildings built to NZ Building Code by experienced craftsmen.

As standard, our cabins and baches are insulated above New Zealand building code (including South Island Alpine Zone) and have custom double-glazed joinery from Origin Windows with options including French and Bifold doors and windows to suit your design needs. We line our cabins to customers specifications in either painted hardboard (for a look like GIB) or Euro Poplar Ply. Our cabins are fully customizable, from lining types, cladding colours to window and door sizes, types and locations, flooring types, skylights, addition of PV solar power, and Heat Pumps.

On the exterior we clad in vertical Colorsteel Corrugate which gives them a stylish look and makes them incredibly durable. We can change the colour from our standard range to any colour on the Colorsteel colour chart. We can also have other cladding options such as Red Cedar for a clean modern look. At Fox Cabins we believe in creating warm, dry, stylish, and durable living spaces that will withstand the test of time.
