Keops vs Flat-Pack Garden Rooms: What’s the Difference?
With so many garden room options available, from flat-pack kits to fully bespoke cabins, it’s worth knowing what you’re paying for. Here’s how Keops stacks up compared to a typical flat-pack supplier.
1. Custom Built vs One-Size-Fits-All
Flat-Pack: Off-the-shelf models, limited layouts and materials.
Keops: Every single cabin is manufactured to order, in the size, shape and style you choose, including door/window position, insulation level and timber thickness.
2. Quality of Materials
Flat-Pack: Thin cladding, basic framing, poor insulation.
Keops: Sustainably sourced Northern Scandinavian timber, 33mm, 45mm or 56mm log thickness, 14mm, 24mm, or 28mm double glazing, insulated floor, roof and even wall options, aluminium folding doors, PVC or timber windows.
3. Insulation and Year-Round Use
Flat-Pack: May be suitable for summer use only.
Keops: Designed for all seasons, including various insulation systems for comfort year-round, right up to fully compliant building regulations house build insulation levels.
4. Installation
Flat-Pack: DIY or hire a general contractor unfamiliar with the product.
Keops: Expert installation team with decades of experience assembling cabins and mobile homes nationwide.
5. Long-Term Value
Flat-pack kits may seem cheaper upfront, but you’ll often pay more over time in repairs, upgrades, and replacements.
A Keops garden room is a long-term investment in your home, built to last for decades with minimal upkeep.
