To account for the hot summers and cold, wet winters in Lonsdale, you need a sturdy carport, shed, or garage. We offer just that with our steel buildings. We use on the best, high quality australian bluescope steel for our sheds, garages, and carrots. It is incredibly durable, with excellent heat resistance so you don't need to worry about it warping. It is also very rust resitant, so rain is not an issue. We recommend adding gutters to buildings installed in Londale to help push rainwater away from your structure, keeping it dry.
While our steel comes at a higher price, you will get excellent longevity from it and won't need to worry about expensive repairs or replacements. Plus, all of our steel is backed by a thirty-year warranty, providing complete peace of mind.

Do I need planning permission for sheds, garages, or carports in Lonsdale?
You will need planning permission for a shed, garage, or carport in Lonsdale if it is larger than 15 square meters and higher than 2.5 meters. Like in other parts of South Australia, where your building will sit also determines if you need to apply for council approval. You will need approval if your building will sit within 900 millimetres of any boundary. You can find a full breakdown of your requirements on South Australia's planning website.

Can I install my shed myself?
Unless you purchase a shed kit with detailed instructions or are a builder, we do not recommend installing your shed.

The last thing you want is to injure yourself or damage your dream shed, so leave the installation to the professionals.
