Need inspiration for your farm machinery workshop shed? We recently worked in with an existing custome to deliver this impressive farm machinery storage and workshop shed!
Project Overview
Location: Maroona VIC
Build Date: 2020
Project Features
- Hi-bay lights are installed throughout the shed. These are particularly beneficial in the maintenance and workshop area of the shed shed as they make it easier to undertake detailed repairs. The workshop area also features a concrete floor the full length of the shed.
- Sliding doors at each end of the shed provide quick and easy machinery access and also allow the shed to be fully enclosed and locked up, making the shed a secure and versatile investment.
- The tank installed at the back of the shed is able to harvest the huge catchment that comes with a roof of this area.
- One of the most useful features of this shed is the drive-through configuration. Accessing the shed from the gable end means the full length of the shed can be used and this configuration also allows large machinery to be quickly put undercover if required.
