Duratuf Tamahere Lifestyle Sheds

Customise Your Tamahere Lifestyle Shed to Suit Your Property

The Duratuf Estate Tamahere Lifestyle Shed is designed with flexibility in mind so you can tailor both its appearance and interior to suit your site and storage needs.

• Exterior colour choice: Mix and match from a wide range of wall, roof and door colours to complement your home, fencing and landscape.
• Roof fall direction: Configure the mono-pitch roof to lean forward or backwards to suit your site drainage and preferred look.
• Natural light & ventilation: Add fixed or opening windows, and choose a clear roof panel to increase light levels and airflow inside the shed.
• Access options: Combine the wide roller door with an optional PA door so you can quickly step in and out without lifting the roller.
• Interior fit-out: Take advantage of the full timber frame to easily fix shelving, tool hooks and ply lining, creating a more finished and organised interior.
• Floor & base setup: Choose from timber or plywood floor options and a raised floor modification when installing on concrete, so you can match the foundation style you prefer.

These sheds are designed to be DIY projects, however we also offer a full install service at fixed prices should you prefer someone else to do this for you. Typically a shed of this size would take one of the installers we use one day. See shed options for pricing.

Construction is straightforward for a builder or anyone with solid building experience, provided the shed is built in accordance with the building code. The kit includes precut timber framing to nail together, wall and roof steel sheets to fasten, along with flashings and door tracks to screw or rivet on.
