When your garage is your go-to storage space for those prized possessions or a handy workshop, a garaport can be the perfect solution – after all, your car still needs protection from Australia’s harsh elements.
Whether you need a small or large storage space, parking for one car or parking for multiple cars, we can design exactly what you need. Your garage space can also be designed as a purpose-built space – whether that’s a business, hobby workshop, storage space, home gym or something else.
Play with inclusions like partition walls, lean-to lengths, mezzanine floors, insulation, personal access doors and more – so you can tailor the garage space according to use, plus make sure your cars are tucked away safely from the direct elements.
Designed to Australia's tough building code and ShedSafe® accredited, you'll know that your garaport is made from COLORBOND® steel and will be built to stand the test of time.
Let’s get started and find out what your perfect garaport looks like.

What are the different garaport design options?
Flat Roof Garaports
Our Flat Roof Garaports are a nod to modernity and efficiency. This design is characterised by its clean lines and uncluttered appearance, making it a perfect fit for contemporary architecture. Despite its minimalist design, each flat roof garaport promises sturdy protection against weather elements.
Skillion Roof Garaports
Add a touch of dynamism to your property with our Skillion Roof Garaports. Also known as monopitch roofs, these garaports feature a single, sloping surface that adds a unique flair. Apart from its visual appeal, the angled design facilitates easy water runoff, making it a practical choice in rainy climates.
Gable Roof Garaports
Our Gable Roof Garaports embody a blend of classic aesthetics and functionality. With two sloping sides converging at a central ridge, this design creates a peak or gable at the end. The design provides additional space and ventilation while offering superior resistance against wind and rain.
FAQs about building a garaport
For a seamless building process, planning permission is typically required for a new shed or garaport exceeding 10m² in floor area or 3m in height. If situated within 1m of a boundary, the height limit is 2.4m. These rules differ from state to state – so please make sure you give your local Fair Dinkum team a call or check in with your local council on specific requirements for your area.
Your choices are vast at Fair Dinkum Builds. From compact, single-car garaports (12'-18' wide), perfect for smaller properties, to spacious five-car garaports (50'-60' wide) for larger families or car enthusiasts, we cater to your unique needs. The options are endless – have a chat with our local team and they'll help fit the garaport to your space!
Absolutely! A well-designed garaport that meets ShedSafe® standards and is built to the National Construction Code not only provides practical storage and vehicle protection but also enhances your property's aesthetic appeal, potentially boosting its market value.
As every garaport is custom-designed to fit individual requirements, costs can vary. We encourage you to contact us directly for an accurate, no-obligation estimate tailored to your specific needs.
