Workshop Sheds

Absolutely! Customisation is key to making your workshop shed fit for purpose. Options include adding windows for natural light, installing ventilation systems for safety, electrical wiring to power tools, insulation for comfort, and even plumbing. At Action Framing Solution, we work closely with you to design a shed that meets all your specifications, ensuring it supports your projects effectively.

For workshop sheds, Colorbond steel is an outstanding material choice, blending durability, aesthetics, and practicality. Colorbond is renowned for its resilience against the harsh Australian climate, offering superior protection against corrosion, extreme temperatures, and moisture. Its strength ensures your workshop is secure and capable of withstanding severe weather conditions, making it ideal for housing valuable tools and machinery. Additionally, Colorbond comes in a variety of colours, allowing you to match your workshop shed to your property’s aesthetic seamlessly. Its low maintenance nature also means you can spend more time on your projects and less on upkeep.

Preparing the site for a workshop shed involves several key steps:

• Choose the Location: Select a level, accessible spot on your property. Consider the shed’s purpose and what you need to access it for, ensuring there’s enough space for doors to open and easy entry for larger equipment.
• Clear the Area: Remove any debris, vegetation, and rocks. The ground needs to be as level as possible to provide a stable foundation.
• Lay a Foundation: Depending on the size of your shed and the soil type, a concrete slab is often recommended for workshop sheds, particularly those housing heavy equipment or requiring a level, stable floor.
• Measure and Mark: Accurately measure and mark out the area based on the dimensions of your shed, allowing extra space for construction and future modifications if necessary.

Maintaining your Colorbond steel workshop shed is straightforward:

• Regular Cleaning: Wash the exterior with mild soapy water and a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt, dust, and potential contaminants that could corrode the metal.
• Inspect for Damage: Look for any scratches, dents, or signs of rust. Early detection allows for prompt touch-ups, preventing further damage.
• Check the Roof and Gutters: Clear leaves and debris from gutters and the roof to prevent blockages and water accumulation, which could lead to rust.
• Lubricate Hinges and Locks: Ensure doors and windows function smoothly by regularly lubricating moving parts.
• Pest Control: While Colorbond steel is resistant to termites and pests, keeping the perimeter clear of rubbish and long grass will discourage rodents from nesting.

By following these maintenance tips, you can ensure your Colorbond workshop shed remains in top condition, providing a secure and durable space for your projects for years to come.
