Why Q Cabin Kits?

Q Cabin Kits are the standard in sustainable, disaster-resistant housing.

• Eco-Friendly systems. Our all steel structure does not consume forests and our steel is manufactured with over 50% recycled material.

• All aspects of the Q Cabin Kits are customizable. We have window and door choices, window location choices, insulation level choices, stair configuration choices. Your cabin will be unique.

• Fire resistant. The Q Cabin Kits have been approved in California’s most strict Wildfire areas. We use 2×6 steel studs and track, 2×12 steel floor joists and 18 gauge Quonset material with a 50-year warranty.

• Structurally superior. Our standard models are rated for 60 lb/sqft snow loads and 100 mph wind loads. The Q Cabin Kits have been retrofitted to withstand a 354 lb/sqft snow load at Donner Pass in California.

• Speedy installation. Pre-fabrication means the Q Cabin Kits are ready to be erected super fast. Our largest kit can be installed in 7 days with a 4 man crew, completely dried in and ready for siding and rough in trades.
