Kit layouts that earn their keep

Explore the layouts below. Each can be adjusted to suit your property and the way you’ll use it.

Room for the caravan. Space to get things done.

Start with what needs to fit, then the room you need around it. Bring the caravan’s overall dimensions if you have them, think about benches and storage, and check the approach to the doorway. A rough idea is enough to begin.

  • Single / double / triple
  • Roller doors
  • PA doors
Concept Design - Rural garage with gable extension, 9 x 7 x 3m, two doors
Concept design — an example layout, not a completed project.

Farm sheds & rural kits

Machinery sheds, hay storage and workshop sheds in open-front and multi-bay configurations. Sized around your gear, your access and the way you move through the shed, not a generic footprint.

  • Machinery & hay
  • Open-front
  • Multi-bay

Workshop kits

Spaces built to work in, not just store in, with room for benches, gear and movement. Add windows, glazing, insulation and ventilation to make a shed you’ll actually want to spend the day in.

  • Bench-ready
  • Insulation
  • Natural light
Concept Design - Workshop with mezzanine, 10 x 10 x 3m, three roller doors
Concept design — an example layout, not a completed project.

Carports & garaports

Simple shelter coverage for vehicles and equipment: the fast, cost-effective option when you don’t need to lock things away. Garaports combine an enclosed bay with open cover for the best of both.

  • Vehicle cover
  • Enclosed + open
  • Cost-effective

Industrial & commercial-style kits

Larger spans, higher clearance and access planning for vehicles and equipment. Options for office areas and mezzanine-ready designs where applicable, engineered for the loads and use you’re putting on it.

  • Larger spans
  • High clearance
  • Mezzanine-ready
Concept Design - High-clearance storage, 12 x 12 x 3m, commercial 15-degree roof

The right fit for your property

Engineered for your site

A kit still needs to suit its actual location and intended use. Your property details, wind conditions, span and height inform the engineering. We’ll explain the specification and the build or approvals support included in your chosen option.

Why us

Practical help with your shed kit

Spec’d properly from the start

We help you size span, height, bays and openings around what you’re storing and how you’ll use it, so the kit fits the job, not just the budget line.

Premium Australian materials

We sell Australian-made BlueScope steel, with COLORBOND® steel options. Your quote confirms the materials and finishes for your shed.

Site-specific engineering

Wind region, exposure and site conditions all matter. We engineer your kit for your location and supply the documentation that supports approvals.

Help that fits your plans

Use your own builder, build the kit yourself where appropriate, or discuss approvals and construction support. We’ll confirm the work and responsibilities in your quote.

SHEDSAFE ACCREDITED

Confidence starts with the right specification.

Rural Built Co is ShedSafe accredited. The program independently reviews shed engineering design principles. For your shed, we work through the site, intended use and wind requirements so you can understand the specification behind the quote.

Materials

Australian-made BlueScope steel. COLORBOND® steel options.

Tell us where your shed is going and how you’ll use it. We can discuss the design, steel and finish options for your project, with the specified materials confirmed in your quote.

Customisation

Start with what your shed needs to do.

A kit can be shaped around a caravan, a workshop, farm storage or something else entirely. You do not need a finished design to start exploring the options.

Try your ideas in 3D

Have a play with the shed designer, then bring your ideas to us. We can help work through what suits your site.

Open the 3D designer

Size & layoutSize the kit around what is going inside.

  • Your tallest and widest item
  • Clearance for a tractor, horse float, caravan or truck
  • Approach lines and how you move through the shed
  • Future expansion plans

Roof styles & pitchFind a roof shape that suits the site and use.

  • Gable roofs: classic, efficient, strong
  • Skillion roofs: clean lines, great for access orientation
  • Flat / low-pitch options (site and engineering dependent)

Doors & accessPlan openings before they become a daily compromise.

  • Roller doors (manual or automation-ready)
  • Sliding doors: great for wide openings
  • Personal access doors
  • Placement planning so you’re not fighting posts and wind

Windows & glazingBring natural light into the places you will use.

  • Windows for natural light and airflow
  • Glass sliders (where suitable) for liveable-style or entertaining spaces
  • Skylights and translucent sheeting for free daytime light

Colours & finishesChoose a finish that belongs on your property.

  • COLORBOND colour selection to match home, fencing or existing sheds
  • Trimdek-style and corrugated (Corro) sheeting profiles
  • Or keep it classic rural, the choice is yours

You choose how the build happens.

Our process

How your kit shed comes together: quote to handover

01

Request a quote

Tell us your location, intended use, preferred size and any must-haves.

02

Design support

We refine layout, openings, heights and add-ons so the kit suits your site.

03

Engineering & paperwork

Site and wind-region considerations, plus the documentation approvals typically need.

04

Finalise & order

We confirm the kit inclusions, payment options and indicative production and delivery timing in your written quote before you order.

05

Delivery, checked off together

Delivered by crane truck — the rollformer’s or our own — and lifted off at the closest safe access point. Unloading isn’t your job; you just make sure the truck can get in. We check the load off together against the bill of materials, in writing. Tell us in writing within seven days of delivery if anything is missing or damaged.

FAQs

Questions, answered

How much do shed kits cost?

You won’t find a price list here, and that’s deliberate. Every shed we quote is engineered to your specific site: wind region, soil, spans, doors, what it has to carry. Two sheds with the same footprint can be two different structures. Tell us where it’s going and what it has to do, and we’ll price it properly: one firm quote, GST included.

What’s included in a shed kit?

The engineered steel kit — frames, purlins, girts, cladding, fasteners — plus site-specific engineering certification for your block’s wind region and soil, plans and elevations (watermarked until paid in full), an installation manual with build-stage phone support, and delivery to site. Just as importantly, your quote lists every exclusion line by line: concrete and slab work, erection, moving materials beyond the crane truck’s drop point, council and certifier fees, earthworks and site prep, stormwater connection, make-good. Anything discussed but not detailed has not been allowed for.

What does ShedSafe accreditation mean for my shed?

Rural Built Co is ShedSafe accredited. The program provides an independent review of shed engineering design principles.

The practical question is whether the quoted specification suits your site and intended use. Ask us to explain the site wind speed and the factors behind it. This helps you compare the engineering as well as the price. Council and building approvals still need to be confirmed for your project.

How ShedSafe supports your shed design.

How customisable are shed kits?

Very. Dimensions, roof style, access points, openings, cladding coverage, colours and add-ons can all be tailored to your gear and site.

Steel kits vs other materials: what’s better?

Steel kits are popular for strength, durability, low maintenance and speed of install, particularly in rural and exposed conditions.

Can I DIY a shed kit?

Yes. Kit-only is a standard way to buy from us, not a fallback. You get the engineered kit, site-specific engineering certification, plans, and an installation manual, with phone support at every build stage. You build it as an owner-builder, or your local licensed builder puts it up.

How do I make sure it meets council requirements?

Depends which way you buy. Kit Supply Only: the build and the council application are yours. You (or your installer) build it, you sign the owner-builder acknowledgment, and we supply the certified engineering that goes into your application. Kit + Approvals: you still run the build, but we coordinate the council and certifier side, with fees and reports at cost. We lodge it properly, but the approval decision is always council’s. Built With You: we’re the builder of record and the whole thing is ours to run.

See the whole kit journey, stage by stage.

How long does a shed kit take after deposit?

Typical kit lead time is around 6–8 weeks after deposit, subject to manufacturing capacity and delivery availability. We’ll confirm the timing for your kit and any Christmas cutoff in your written quote. A pre-Christmas delivery date is not guaranteed until we confirm it with you.

How does delivery work?

Your kit arrives by crane truck — the rollformer’s or our own — and is lifted off at the closest safe access point on your property. Unloading isn’t your job; you just make sure the truck can get in (tight tracks, gates and soft ground — tell us on the quote). Once it’s down, we check the load off together against the bill of materials, in writing, so anything short or damaged is on record from day one. Tell us in writing within seven days of delivery if anything is missing or damaged. Delivery is confirmed on your quote, for your actual address. The full delivery rundown is here.

Can I upgrade or extend later?

Often yes, especially if you design for future lean-tos, extra bays or enclosing from the start. Tell us your stage-two plan early and we’ll design for it now so you’re not boxed in.

We’re outside your build zone — can we still get a Rural Built Co shed?

Yes. Full builds stay close to home in the Somerset; that’s how we keep one crew on one job. Kits travel: engineered to your site from your property details, certified, and delivered — across South-East Queensland and surrounds, confirmed on your quote for your address.
