Duratuf Otago Lifestyle Workshop – Shell Only

Customising Your Otago Lifestyle Workshop

The Duratuf Otago Lifestyle Workshop – Shell Only is designed to be configured around how you actually work and store your gear. A wide range of layout, access, glazing, and colour options means you can tailor the building to your site and your projects.

• Front Wall Layouts: Select from multiple combinations of roller doors, PA doors, windows, and ranch sliders to create the ideal mix of vehicle access, pedestrian entry, and natural light.
• Glazing Choices: Choose between single and double-glazed ranch sliders and windows, and mix fixed and opening units to balance warmth, light, and ventilation.
• Window Quantities: Configure 1, 2, or 3-window sets in both fixed and opening styles to suit your preferred working areas inside the workshop.
• Colour Coordination: Customise cladding, flashings, roller door, joinery, and PA door colours from an extensive palette to match your home or create a bold, standalone feature.
• Natural Light Options: Add a clear roof panel to bring in overhead daylight where you need it most.
• Height & Structural Upgrades: Optional extra wall height and structural kits for very high wind, coastal, or high snow load areas let you adapt the workshop to your local conditions.
