AVRAME standard homes customization guidelines
AVRAME offers 17 different kit home models : 3 SOLO+ tiny houses, 4 DUO models, 5 TRIO models and 5 Classic models. Core values of AVRAME kit homes are affordability, simplicity and speed of construction. When making a decision of buying/building a new home or leisure house, most buyers want to make it fit their needs and wants. In case of too many customizations standard home might lose its benefits and become a custom home. To avoid this, some guidelines have to be followed:- Smaller the unit, less customizations it can accommodate. Our smallest model, SOLO+42 can only have the main facade altered for more glass.
- Customizations other than those described below should always be sent to AVRAME head office for feasibility check. AVRAME guarantees feasibility checks on all customizations on larger orders exceeding 120 000€ value.
- Decks/terraces are drafted as outline on ground plan only. AVRAME can calculate approximate quantities for terrace boards and support beams and deliver them. AVRAME will not provide step-by-step assembly instructions for decks/terraces nor can we guarantee the sufficiency of boards/beams. Those are sold by linear meters.
- Some custom modifications have been successfully implemented in previous builds. However, this does not mean that the same or similar changes can be made in every situation or for every future build. Each project is different, and the feasibility of modifications depends on several factors.
Our customization service costings are as follows:
Interior planning/partition walls
Default: 45x95mm stud wall placed on floor plans as shown on www.avrame.com/floorplans
Available choices: As all interior walls in a-frames are just partition walls (not loadbearing) our standard wall constructions can be placed as customer defines. NB! It does not apply on Classic Series homes as those have load bearing interior walls.
What if the default/optional choices are not enough? If you want drywall-on-metal-frame or any other interior wall construction, you’ll have to use local engineers, suppliers, builders for those.
