Steel Garage Sheds NZ – Engineered Strength, Built Local

 

Your Garage, Your Way – Custom Sheds Built for NZ

For over 20 years, Waikato Sheds has been building custom garage sheds that stand up to New Zealand’s toughest conditions. Whether you need a single-bay car garage or a full-size workshop, our garages are engineered for strength, security, and long-term performance — all built on solid concrete foundations.

We’re trusted by homeowners, tradies, and rural property owners across Waikato and beyond — and we deliver the same high quality you’d expect from major names like KiwiSpan, Wide Span Sheds, or Alpine Buildings, but with local expertise and truly custom service.


Built with Premium Materials and Proven Experience

We only use NZ-made steel and COLORSTEEL® roofing and cladding, so your garage looks great and stays that way for decades.

Key features:

  • COLORSTEEL® in modern and traditional colours
  • Roller doors, PA access doors, or automatic sectional doors
  • Optional windows, skylights, internal walls and storage areas
  • High-stud clearance for hoists, utes, boats or tools
  • Built on a fully engineered concrete pad (no skids or timber subfloors)
  • Site-specific engineering for wind and seismic zones

From tidy single-car garages to larger builds that compete with anything from KiwiSpan or Alpine — we build garages that last.


Flexible Layouts to Suit Your Property

Every garage shed is designed for your site and purpose. Whether you’re parking vehicles, storing tools, or running a side business — we’ll create the space you need.

Common garage layouts:

  • Single garage with workshop
  • Double or triple garages with extra stud height
  • Boat or caravan storage
  • Workshop garage combos
  • Custom rooflines to suit your home or shed cluster

Looking for a 30m² consent-free garage? We’ve got you covered there too.


Kitset or Full Build — NZ-Wide

We offer:

  • Kitset garages shipped NZ-wide, including steel frames, cladding, and engineering plans
  • Full build service throughout Waikato, Auckland, Bay of Plenty, Coromandel and Taupō

Like Totalspan or Versatile Garages, we deliver engineered quality — but with NZ made product and no cookie-cutter templates, so you can get the best shed for you.


Frequently Asked Shed Questions

How do your garages compare to other shed companies in NZ?
Unlike many shed companies, we only use top-quality, NZ-sourced materials and never cut corners. Our garage sheds are fully engineered, built with precision, and include custom flashings and structural enhancements that many other brands skip. We don’t just meet minimum code — we build stronger, longer-lasting sheds with full design flexibility and clear pricing.

Do you offer consent-free garage options?
Yes — we can design a 30m² garage that meets NZ’s building exemption rules. Perfect for simple, standalone garages without the paperwork.

What’s included in the kitset?
Every kit includes NZ steel frames, COLORSTEEL® cladding, fasteners, roller doors (or other options), and full site-specific engineering plans.

Can I convert a garage into a workshop or hobby space?
Absolutely. Many customers add benches, lighting, wall linings or mezzanines — we’ll design your garage with future use in mind.

How long have you been building sheds?
We’ve been designing and constructing sheds in New Zealand for over 20 years — and we’ve built and delivered hundreds of garages, lifestyle sheds, and habitable sheds across New Zealand.
