A purpose-built industrial shed brings convenience and efficiency to your business, increasing storage and operational capacity. Need even more room? Our large sheds deliver the same strength and versatility on a grander scale.
At ABC Sheds, we design and build wide-span steel structures tailored for commercial and industrial use. Built with high-quality Australian steel and robust structural framing, our sheds are engineered to withstand Australia’s harshest environments. From compact workshops to expansive large sheds, we have a solution that meets every demand.
Ideal for workshops, warehouses, factories, distribution hubs, and more, every shed is designed to suit your workflow and location. Key inclusions can be tailored to your needs, such as:
Increased height or clear-span widths
Insulation, skylights, and ventilation
Internal office spaces or fit-outs
External loading areas and access points
Our fully fabricated frames use hot-dip galvanised components for maximum durability. We customise every structure to its wind region, ensuring full compliance with council regulations, including cyclone-prone and coastal areas. With bay spans up to 60m wide and no internal columns, you get the space and flexibility your business demands.
That’s why every building is backed by our 25-year "You're Covered" guarantee.

Every commercial and industrial project has different requirements, so we focus on how you plan to use the building before finalising a design.
Whether you are running a warehouse, workshop, processing facility, or distribution hub, ABC Sheds can tailor a structure that fits. We work with you on span, height, cladding, and access so your building supports how you store, process, or move goods on site.
Our sheds can be configured with open front access, enclosed loading bays, or fully enclosed walls. You can combine different bays or areas within a single building to accommodate storage, work areas, and customer-facing spaces in one layout.
Pricing typically starts from $400–$500 per square metre, depending on the size, span, and level of customisation. Location, engineering complexity, and extras like mezzanine floors or internal fit-outs can affect the final cost.

Our shed frames are engineered for Australian conditions and can be customised to suit your site and operations.
Typical clear-span widths include:
12 m, 15 m, 18 m, 21 m, 24 m, 30 m, 36 m, 40 m, 46 m, 50 m, 60 m
These spans provide large areas of uninterrupted floor space, giving you freedom to plan racking, machinery, and vehicle movements without working around internal columns.
If you have a specific clearance or opening height in mind for vehicles or specialised equipment, let us know and we can design the structure around those requirements.
How enclosed your new building should be depends on how you use it.
If you are frequently moving vehicles or goods in and out, a semi open layout keeps access simple and reduces congestion at doorways. Open front or drive-through designs can be ideal for loading, unloading, or service bays.
Where security, weather protection, or dust control are priorities, a fully enclosed shed with lockable doors and solid walls offers reliable protection day and night. This helps safeguard stock and equipment while supporting a safer, more controlled working environment.

Access points are a key part of the design, and we offer a range of door options to suit different areas of your shed.
Metal sliding doors run smoothly along a rail and provide wide openings for vehicles and large loads. They are durable and low maintenance, making them well suited to high-use commercial and industrial sites.
Roller doors provide secure, weather-tight access and roll neatly above the entry without needing extra clearance inside the building. They work well for multiple bays, loading docks, and areas where motorised operation is preferred.
Personal access (PA) doors allow staff and visitors to enter the building without opening large vehicle doors. This supports safety, security, and climate control, especially in busier work areas or where goods are being stored.
You can enhance your shed with practical upgrades that improve strength, comfort, and day to day usability in a commercial setting.
Concrete panels offer excellent durability and impact resistance. They are well suited to bulk storage areas, traffic zones, and applications where heavier equipment operates close to wall lines. Concrete walls can also assist with temperature stability and reduce noise transfer between different parts of the building.
Natural light can improve comfort and visibility for staff. We can add windows or glazed sections to suit your layout, whether that is along warehouse walls, workshop areas, or office and showroom spaces.
Internal partitions, cages, or gated areas can be incorporated to create secure storage zones, separate public and operational areas, or define different workspaces. This helps you keep the building organised and aligned with your safety and access requirements.

For projects that suit a pre-designed footprint, our Durakit range provides structural steel kit sheds with streamlined delivery timeframes.
Each kit includes the fully fabricated structural steel frame, cladding, gutters, downpipes, bolts, screws, flashings, and clear installation guidance. This gives your builder everything needed on site for a straightforward, efficient build.
Because the designs are pre-engineered, Durakit kit sheds can often be delivered more quickly than a fully custom build, while still meeting the same Australian standards for strength and safety. They use the same heavy-duty structural steel system as our custom sheds, giving you long-term performance in demanding conditions.
Kit sheds are a good fit when:
You need a proven layout that is already engineered for similar applications
You have a builder ready to erect the structure and want all major components supplied together
You want the reliability of a fully fabricated steel frame with a more predictable cost and timeframe
If you think a kit shed could suit your site, talk to our team about the Durakit options available or visit our Durakit kit sheds page for more details.
Warehousing & distribution centres (Typically $400–$500 per m² AUD; from $350/m² with steel walls; from $550/m² with concrete walls)

Yes. In most Australian states large sheds fall outside the “exempt” size limits, so you will usually need either a building permit or development approval before construction begins.
Typical trigger points include:
ABC Sheds supplies certified engineering drawings and footing details for all large sheds and can liaise with private certifiers to streamline the approval process. Always confirm exact requirements with your local council, as wind region or bush-fire zoning can add extra structural conditions.
