If you are looking for additional all-weather protection on your property, a DIY (or Do It Yourself) Shade Shed kit can be a cost-effective way to safely store and protect your valuable assets from the elements.
If you have been thinking about adding additional storage space/weather protection to your house or property, why not make it a DIY project for the family over the September School Holidays.
We designed our Shade Sheds with simple, easy, and stress-free installation in mind. They are a great economical alternative to building a fully enclosed garage, carport extension or lockable shed.
Their free-standing open-ended design means they can be easily positioned just about anywhere on your block with no major excavation works required.
In most cases all you need to install your brand-new shade shed yourself is a drill and a ladder and away you go! Your Shade Shed kit includes everything you need to mark out and erect your Shade Shed including:
• RHS Steel Frame
• Tek Screws
• Colorbond© sheeting and flashing in your choice of colour
• Colour matched Roofing Screws
• Choice of Hold Down options: Saddles & Bolts, Concrete Pier kits or Ground Anchors
• Full, easy to read instructions with pictures, parts lists, layouts, and plans
Our friendly team is also available to answer any questions you might have while erecting your new Shade Shed.

You’re in the market for a new Shade Shed or Shade Shelter but, how do you know which hold down option works best for you?
Hold downs are what anchor the base rails of the Shade Shed or Shade Shelter to the ground and come in three different styles; saddles and bolts, concrete piers and ground anchors.
Saddle and Bolt Set
Saddles and Bolts are used if you are erecting your Shade Shed or Shelter on a concrete slab. The base rails lay on the slab, the saddles sit on top and are bolted to the concrete. Be sure to check how thick your slab is first, if it is thinner than 300mm you may need to ask for additional hold downs to ensure your Shade Shed or Shelter will meet the minimum engineering requirements when erected.
Concrete Pier Kits
Concrete Piers can be used if you need to cement your footings in, but don’t want to lay a full concrete slab on the property. To install, you need to dig your footings to the required depth and width, locate your pier and cement them in. The base rails of the Shade Shed or Shelter then lay between the exposes ends of the pier and are secured with a saddle.
Ground Anchor Set
For Shade Sheds and Shade Shelters 6m wide and under Ground Anchors are a concrete-free installation option in any region. Yes, they have been engineered for use in Cyclone Rated areas too. The Anchor hammers into the ground and the base rails of the Shade Shed or Shelter then lay between the exposed ends, similar to the concrete pier option, and are secured with a saddle.
Here at QLD Shade Sheds our Kits include your choice of hold down option at no extra cost, you just simply pick which option works best for your property. If you have a tricky or unique site, we can even mix and match the options for you to make sure it is just right.
We have engineer designed and certified our own range of Shade Sheds and Shelters to the highest Australian Standards and build each Shade Shed and Shade Shelter to order using RHS galvanised steel and Colorbond® sheeting and flashing in your choice of colour from their standard range.
