Protecting Your Vehicles: Why Shade Sheds Are a Smart Choice

Shade Shed

When it comes to safeguarding your vehicles, investing in adequate protection is crucial. Harsh weather conditions such as scorching sun, heavy rain and strong winds can take a toll on your cars, boats or caravans. That’s why shade sheds have become an increasingly popular choice in Australia. Here, QLD Shade Sheds, trusted supplier of car shelters, explores why all weather shelters are a smart choice to protect your vehicles.

Relocatable

QLD Shade Sheds offers 100% portable car shelters in Australia. Our car shelters are completely relocatable, and can be easily repositioned on your property or even taken with you if you ever move home.

Robust Structures

Investing in a shade shed from QLD Shade Sheds means investing in our quality, durability and our guarantee. We have engineer-designed and certified our own range of shade sheds and shelters to the highest Australian Standards. Although cheap, imported fabric and metal roofed models are easily available in today’s market, few are robust enough to handle the harsh sun and storms we experience in Australia and can cause considerable third party damage should they collapse or let go. Our structures are constructed using RHS galvanised steel and Colorbond® sheeting and flashing, built to withstand the harsh Australian climate.

Protection From the Elements

The Australian climate can be harsh, with intense heat, strong winds and intense storms. QLD Shade Sheds’ all weather shelters offer reliable protection against these elements, shielding your assets from the sun’s harmful UV rays, preventing paint fading and interior damage. Our car shelters are certified for wind regions A, B and C and fully backed by our 10-year Structural Warranty. QLD Shade Sheds guarantee a perfect solution to affordable weather protection for your assets.

Modify Your Structure

Our shade sheds are available in a wide range of sizes and designs, making them suitable for various vehicle types and applications. QLD Shade Sheds offers customisable options, allowing you to tailor your shed to meet your specific needs. Each Shade Shed is built to order using RHS galvanised steel and Colorbond® sheeting and flashing, in your choice of colour from their standard range. As a standard, we build our Shade Sheds with one Colorbond® sheet in each side wall, but this can be easily modified to include half and full side walls on one or both sides for added protection.

Protecting your vehicles from the elements is a smart choice, and QLD Shade Sheds has the customisable, relocatable and quality solution for you. Contact us online for your free quote.

Let’s talk sizing

At QLD Shade Sheds we will make a product for exactly what you need.

We are 100% Australian made and family owned, our workshop is based on the beautiful Sunshine Coast, and we can delivery Australia wide.

Below is our standard sizing chart for our Shade Sheds.

Standard Sizing chart

We offer standard sizes, or you can use this as a guide and custom your shade shed to what you need.

We can customize the length and height dimensions however, our widths need to remain the same to provide our engineering certificate and a strong built to last structure. When you choose a width wider than 5.9 meters you then go into our large span category.

Our Large Span Shade Sheds use a 150mm galvanised steel frame to support the size of the shed. When using the 150mm steel frame, our ground anchor hold down option will no longer be applicable.

Our cyclonic rated shade sheds have some limitations on the height to width ratio, this is to make sure we are providing you with the highest quality Shade Shed on the market.

If you’re considering purchasing a Shade Shed, please contact our friendly team so we can answer any questions you might have.

Can it be December already? That’s the question most of us ask every year, around this time.

We will be closed from the 23rd of December and coming back bright eyed, and bushy tailed on Monday the 10th of January.

We assure you that all enquiries will be answered as soon as we return.

The Sunburnt Country

Australia can be described as the Sunburnt Country and for good reason. We are almost in Summer although, let’s be honest many areas of Australia feel like we are in Summer all year around. During these extreme heats many of us experience overs the warmer months ourselves and our belongings are vulnerable to sun damage.

High UV rays will overtime fade the paint of your cars, caravans, and boats.  It’s not just cosmetic damage you need to worry about. Your dashboards can crack, liquids can evaporate, and rubber can melt. Pets and livestock also rely on cooler temperatures to promote heat loss and shade is essential for this, especially for dark-coloured animals that readily absorb heat.

Our Shade Sheds are a great economical alternative to a fully enclosed structures and as they are free standing, they can be positioned almost anywhere on your property with no major excavation works required.  Totally relocatable, they can be easily repositioned or even taken with you.

Our Shade Sheds are made to order in our workshop on the Sunshine Coast. We are proud of our high quality Australian made products, so if you want to protect your goods and furry friends this summer choose QLD Shade Sheds.

On the 24th to the 26th we attended the Sunshine Coast Expo at Sunshine Coast Stadium.

The Expo featured the latest outdoor adventure vehicles,  caravans, camper trailers, boats, 4×4’s, hybrids and more with a total of 160 exhibiting companies.

It was a jam-packed three days, with live music demonstration and interactive programs.

We were protected from the elements under our 5.9m width x 7.4m long x 3.1m high Shade Shed with Surfmist Colourbond sheeting.

Lots of friendly faces came to visit our stand, We noticed a similar trend of questions being asked so I would like to answer some.

Council approval: We always advise contacting your local council office to find out if approval is needed to erect a relocatable structure on your property. Our sheds come with full documentation that you can submit if needed.

Price lists: We don’t have prices available online, because we make each shed to order! They all vary in price depending on what dimension you need and your wind rating.

Wind and cyclone rated: Our Shade Sheds are certified for all Wind Regions within Australia and are backed with a full 10-year Structural Warranty.

Thank you to everyone that came by our stand for a chat and a big thank you to the organisers of the Expo.
