Rural Sheds

Rural Sheds Built for New Zealand Conditions

At Waikato Sheds, we design and build custom rural sheds that are engineered to handle the demanding conditions of New Zealand farms and properties. Whether you need a secure farm implement shed, hay storage, a workshop, or a multi-bay open-fronted shed, we provide durable, functional structures tailored to your needs.

Built with New Zealand-Made Steel

Our rural sheds are constructed using high-quality NZ Steel and COLORSTEEL® cladding, providing strength, weather resistance, and long-term durability. Every shed is engineered to meet New Zealand’s building standards and rural requirements, ensuring it performs on any terrain and in any climate.

Custom Designed for Your Land and Operation

No two farms are the same, which is why our sheds aren’t one-size-fits-all. We work closely with you to design a shed that fits your land, equipment, and goals. From layout to access points, roller doors, open bays, and internal divisions — everything is customizable. Whether you need a 3-bay hay shed or a large implement storage solution, we’ll design it right.

Proven Performance Across the Waikato and Beyond

Waikato Sheds has been serving rural clients throughout the Waikato, Bay of Plenty, Auckland, Coromandel and Taupō regions since 2005. With over 600 sheds built, we understand local conditions and council requirements, and can assist with the design, engineering, and compliance process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a building consent for a rural shed?
In many cases, you can build a shed up to 110m² without consent under New Zealand’s building exemptions. However, this depends on shed type, location, and usage. We can guide you through the consent requirements or recommend a consent-free design if needed.

Can I customise the shed layout and size?
Yes, every rural shed we build is fully customisable. You choose the size, number of bays, door placement, cladding style, colour, and more.

Do you offer both kitset and full build options?
Yes. We offer kitset sheds delivered NZ-wide, and a full build service in the Greater Waikato and surrounding regions. You can choose the option that best fits your location and budget.

What’s included in your rural shed kits?
Our kitsets include all steel frames, COLORSTEEL® cladding, fasteners, brackets, engineering plans, and detailed assembly instructions. Optional extras like roller doors, PA doors, and vermin flashings are available.
