At Waikato Shed Company, we’re proud to offer top-notch shed building and design services, specializing in the use of the portal frame system. This construction method is crucial for New Zealand’s diverse building needs, whether you’re looking for a functional garage, a spacious shed, or even a barndominium that blends living and working spaces. With the versatility and durability of the portal frame system, we can help you create the perfect structure to meet your specific requirements. Here’s how this system can be used across a variety of projects to make specialized structures.
Garages
For homeowners and businesses alike, the portal frame system is an excellent solution for building garages. At Waikato Shed Company, we design garages that maximise space, whether you need a single-bay garage for personal use or a large commercial garage with multiple bays for equipment and vehicles. Our portal frame designs provide open, unobstructed areas that can be customised with roller doors, side entrances, and extra storage, making your garage not only practical but also highly functional.
Shed Houses (Barndominiums)
Shed houses, or barndominiums, are an exciting new trend in New Zealand, and we’re experts at designing and building them. Using the portal frame system, we can create a unique space that combines the functionality of a shed with the comfort of a home. Whether you want an open-plan living area with high ceilings or a workshop attached to your living quarters, we can design a space that suits your lifestyle and work needs. These structures are perfect for rural living, offering cost-effective and customizable solutions that blend the best of both worlds.
Farm and Industrial Sheds
Waikato Shed Company has years of experience building farm and industrial sheds using the portal frame system. Whether you need a large shed to store equipment, house livestock, or protect your feed, we can design a structure that meets your specific agricultural needs. Our structures are built to withstand New Zealand’s ever-changing weather conditions, ensuring long-lasting durability. For industrial purposes, we offer sheds that provide wide open spaces for machinery and operations, ideal for workshops, storage facilities, or manufacturing sites.
Commercial Warehouses
Our portal frame structures are perfect for commercial warehouses, providing the large open spaces needed for efficient storage and logistics. We can design your warehouse to include mezzanine floors, office spaces, and loading docks to suit your business’s specific needs. With Waikato Shed Company’s expertise, your commercial space will be both functional and adaptable, offering a cost-effective solution for businesses looking to expand or optimise their operations.
Recreational Facilities
At Waikato Shed Company, we can design and build recreational facilities that meet the needs of your community or business. Whether it’s a sports centre, gym, or community hall, the portal frame system allows us to create large, open spaces perfect for a variety of activities. These facilities can be customised to include courts, changing rooms, or equipment storage, making them versatile and practical for a range of recreational purposes.
Aircraft Hangars
Our expertise also extends to constructing aircraft hangars using the portal frame system. These structures require large, unobstructed spans to accommodate planes and helicopters, and we can design hangars that meet these specific needs. With wide door openings and durable construction, our hangars provide ample space for aircraft storage, maintenance, and operations.
Garages with Attached Workshops
Many of our clients are looking for garages that double as workshops, and we’re here to design the perfect multi-use space for you. Whether you need a place to store your vehicles and tools or a full-fledged workshop attached to your garage, the portal frame system allows us to create a layout that works best for you. We’ll work with you to ensure your space is functional, practical, and customised to your exact requirements.
