Outposts are made with compressed metal paneling designed for commercial construction. This lends to a highly insulated interior (R value = 20) that retains both heat and cold well. Each unit comes with an A/C unit on the top and an electric fireplace on the inside.

When setting your Outpost, you’ll want to consider how you’ll anchor it to the land. Often this can be a leveled gravel bed. If you’re looking at elevation, perhaps concrete or steel support is a better solution.

Other site items to consider: utilities (water & electrical). We partner with premium vendors to offer solar and composting options. Outpost 1875 is not responsible for site development; however, we can aid in providing suggestions for placement.

We are happy to make accommodations for tweaks to the underlying designs. Some possible changes: the entry door could be placed to the side, the door, the interior accent wall, flooring, vanity, light fixtures.

Any custom requests may incur additional costs. All pricing for customized units will be provided in a quote prior to signing the sales agreement.
