Had a Duratuf shed before and it worked well, so I bought another. I paid to have it assembled and the experience was very good. Would definitely recommend.

Bought it for the strength and quality, and it didn’t disappoint. Assembly was actually fun — a great little project. Thanks for the great shed!

Overall, the shed seemed like good value. Assembly was okay, though more detailed photos in the instructions would have made some of the steps easier to follow. Still, a good experience and I’d recommend it.

Features
Full-Timber Frame
The strongest full timber framed garden sheds in NZ? You bet! Once you have stepped into a Duratuf shed and experienced it for yourself you won't want anything else! Like a roll-cage in a race-car, the full timber frame creates incredible strength and protection against the harsh NZ elements.
Everglide Door System
Our Everglide Door System features a beefed-up aluminium door track and ball bearing rollers. Giving you years of smooth, quiet shed access to your Kiwi shed. We reckon it's the best garden shed door on the market!

Outstanding Weatherproofing
Duratuf's waterproofing pedigree is legendary! The 'No Leaks' roof system is unique to Duratuf, and the timber frame means no flashings at the bottom of the wall that might trap water and cause corrosion.
Accessories & Add-ons
Shed Alarm
This innovative mains free shed alarm is easily fixed inside the framing of your Duratuf shed. Features an ultra-loud 130db siren.
5-Tier Shelf Unit

Tool Board
Organise your workspace with the Duratuf Built-in Tool Board. Different sizes are available to fit into the end wall of most sheds. They come cut to fit and complete with ply, extra framing and installation hardware.
Built-in Workbench
It’s a bloke thing - a built-in workbench that’s solid enough to mount your vice on and tough enough to take the hard knocks. Different sizes are available for most models and are custom built to fit into the end wall of the sheds.
Heavy Duty Workbench
For a solid working area and extra storage capacity you need a heavy duty work bench. This well designed bench has a unique lock together construction with a 250Kg load rating per shelf support. Approximate size: 1140mm W x 500mm D x 900mm H
Timber Floor Kit
Duratuf Timber floor kits create a strong, level working platform that fits inside the shed and on top of the bottom plate, not underneath like other sheds. Which allows the cladding to extend below the floor level for superior weatherproofing. Comes with installation fixings an attractive doorway flashing.
200mm Extra Wall Height
If you require a little more head space in your Duratuf garden shed, simply opt for the Extra Head Height Option. This is especially useful in a workshop situation where you are spending a lot of time working in your shed.
Coastal Warranty Upgrade
Because we are so confident in the quality of our cladding, we back it up with a 30-year warranty in non-coastal regions (conditions apply). For those sheds in coastal areas, we also offer a high-durability grade of cladding option for your peace of mind. With an extra thick layer of zinc-aluminium protection, our Coastal grade cladding provides enhanced resistance to the harsh conditions in New Zealand’s coastal environment.
For full details of our Coastal Upgrade Option, refer to our Warranty Page.
Clear Roof Panels
Duratuf Clear Roof Panels provide UV free natural daylight inside your shed. This is perfect if you are using your shed for a workshop and need light while the door may be closed.
Bolt Down Kit
If your shed is to be attached to a concrete floor or base, the Bolt Down Kit allows you to securely anchor your shed without damaging either your concrete pad or the timber frame of the shed.
Peg Down Kit
Perfect for anchoring your garden shed on ground such as grass, dirt or metal. The 6 x H5 treated pegs are driven into the ground and screws to the bottom plate with the stainless steel screws provided.
Door Security Upgrade
Keep intruders at bay by upgrading your shed doors to keyed locking handles. These are not only more secure, but also easier to open with one hand if you are holding an armful of gear as you enter.
Raised Floor Modification
The unique design of all Duratuf sheds allows them to be easily modified for use with a raised concrete pad.
This modification causes the wall cladding to overhang a concrete floor slab, which creates excellent weather-proofing, something that can't be done with non-timber framed garden sheds.
