Great Guide to Log Racks

Those of us who regularly use our fire throughout the year know that you need a log rack to store your wood. Log racks stop your wood becoming a hiding place for small animals and vermin, keep wood rotting by keeping it off the damp ground and more than any thing, log racks act as an aesthetically pleasing way to store your logs.

By using a log rack to keep your wood from the resting on the damp, cold ground (and thus starting to rot) you are keeping your wood dry so when you come to use your logs on the fire you are getting a more efficient, cleaner and warmer fire from your timber. You will be very thankful for this during those long cold winter months when you need your logs to be kept dry and produce maximum warmth.

What to look for in a log rack.

When it comes to log racks, size matters and bigger is better. Obviously the larger the dimensions the more logs can safely be stored on your rack. Strictly speaking the number of logs that can be stored depends greatly on the person who cut the logs and what size they cut to.

How to use a log rack.

Being a log rack enthusiast I personally have two log racks. I have my large log rack outside in my garage that I use for storage and then I have my smaller more ornamental and elegant log rack which I keep by the fire to contain my daily logs meaning less drudging out in the snow on the cold winter days.

With the indoor log rack I use a bracket to attach the small log rack to the wall so it doesn't tip over scattering wood an debris everywhere.

By keeping my large log rack in my garage I am ensuring that while the wood can breathe it is kept dry and well aired so it doesn't begin to rot.
