Lok-N-Logs

What Lok-N-Logs does

Lok-N-Logs is a privately held, vertically integrated manufacturer of pre-cut log home kits and structural log components, founded in 1975 and headquartered in Sherburne, New York. The company produces red pine logs that are hand-peeled for a rustic finish, kiln-dried to approximately 19% moisture content, and pressure-treated with EPA-registered sodium borate preservative in its own treating facilities — a combination it describes as unique in the industry and the basis for the only transferable lifetime warranty against wood-digesting insect and decay damage. Standard residential offerings span Ranch, Cape, Gambrel, and Two-Story floor plans (e.g., Oneida, Florida II, Frasure, Maple Crest Lodge) with list prices from roughly $47,595 to $328,432, plus compact Hunters Cabin kits and matching Log Garage Kits; a separate e-commerce shop sells individual wall logs, log siding, tongue & groove lumber, stair material, posts and railings, fireplace mantels, and OlyLog/LogHog threaded fasteners.

The business serves four primary customer segments: residential home buyers (primary), commercial businesses (restaurants, retail, camps, offices), real estate investors and developers building resort or rental properties, and government/historic-preservation clients undertaking fort and public-project restorations. Distribution combines direct-to-consumer e-commerce, inside sales (phone and free Planning Sessions via Jotform and Google Calendar), a physical showroom (the Hunts Mountain Lodge model home in Sherburne), and a regional dealer representative network covering at least seven US states, with international shipments to 8 countries on 4 continents. Commercial revenue is generated through one-time log home package sales, project-based custom quotes for commercial and historic-restoration work, and component/hardware sales via the online shop; pricing is largely quote-based for custom and commercial work and unit-priced for components, with FOB shipping from Sherburne, NY. The company holds no disclosed external funding, no AI/ML technology stack, and no formal certification beyond EPA preservative registration and third-party grading by Timber Products Inspection (TPI) under ASTM standards.
