Custom sheds for your backyard

Who thought a simple shed could look this good?

For this project we’ve added a Spotted Gum front to our classic shed to give it that extra appeal.

We’ve further customised this shed with a window, sliding door, plastered internal walls and floorboards.

As all our products are made in our Melbourne factory, we can create the perfect backyard room for your purpose, completely customisable to your specifications.

Customised design for your backyard room

Attention to detail is everything.

As all our products are manufactured from scratch in our Kilsyth factory, you have the opportunity to customise your backyard room as you like (within reason of course).

We think this elegant, custom wooden door is a great example of how our products evolve through a discussion with our customers to reach the perfect outcome.

Up & Overs – the perfect mini-playground

The Up & Over is a great dual-climbing mini playground.

Combining a net rope and a rock wall, its low height also makes it ideal for the little ones.

Our Up & Over allows kids to work on bilateral coordination, sequencing and body awareness in a challenging and fun way.

Wood manufactured Play trains for Childcare centres

As we’ve been busy installing playground equipment in ELC’s across Australia we thought we’d feature another of our popular playground elements – The Play Train.

These certified units come with a fun tunnel and small platform combo to be enjoyed by active kids for years to come.

Reach out if you’re thinking of designing your first playground or if you have a playground that simply needs some love and attention.
