Kanga Cabins are designed to be placed in the country or in areas where there will be no required inspections by a local building authority.  If site access allows, the cabin can be trucked in nearly fully assembled, requiring very little on-site time.  Currently the floorplans for dwellings and cabins are identical.

Kanga Dwellings are designed for locations that will require a permit and inspections.  These are generally located inside a City Limits although there are some areas in City Limits and Towns where a full on site inspection may not be required. Currently the floorplans for dwellings and cabins are identical.

Features

Cabins and Dwellings are available as shell kits, installed shells (Texas only) and turnkey (Texas only) buildings. Shell kits consist of the exterior material building and the Kanga cabin or dwelling will look complete from the exterior upon local install completion with only the pine tongue & groove ceiling cover, exposed studs and interior wall framing on the inside. Installed shells are essentially the shell kit installed by Kanga Room Systems in Texas.

Kit Information

Cabin and dwelling kits are available for DIY-ers in Texas and most other states (some limitations apply). Most of our kit customers have chosen to have local contractors assemble their Kanga homes.          

All kits include pre-framed walls, roof material (rafters, decking, galvalume metal roof cover, and flashing), our standard pine T&G ceiling cover, lap siding, house wrap, optional interior wall framing (for bathroom, bedroom, and closets), loft platform, and windows and doors to your specs. Everything in the kit is pre-cut and panelized, except the siding, and ready for a speedy onsite install.  

Due to the stick-built nature of our prefabbed product, all electrical wiring, plumbing, and painting must be completed onsite by you or your contractor. We are able to send the majority of the material for the buildings (i.e. skid/pier & beam foundation platform, decking, wall cover, flooring, light fixtures, bathroom vanities, HVAC wall unit, etc...), but it is usually more cost effective for you to buy those materials locally. Please note that we do not typically send foundation or deck material with the kits. That is definitely a number one item that is time & cost efficient for you to complete while your kit is being prepared for shipping.
