“We’re now able to keep all our toys in one place and still have a workshop space, it’s the ultimate man shed.”

Man Shed
Project Description
Client: Noel & Barb McCrostie
Location: Alexandra
Key materials: Steel portal, colorsteel cladding
The challenge
The owners needed space to keep a number of vehicles, boats and machinery all in the one.
Our approach

Discover
The initial discussions were about what needed to fit in the shed, the workshop space required, the door sizes and heights required.
Design
The building was then designed in three parts to suit the different space requirements, it’s basically three sheds put together with different roof heights. A 15 x 12m smaller toy shed, 11.55 x 11.2m centre workshop, 18 x 15m large toy shed.
Build
Specialised Structures supplied a kitset, local builders constructed this building for the owner.
The result
Here is a modern contemporary structure, reflecting what can be done with flare and initiative.
