FAQ SECTION
What’s included in the carport or shed kit?
Our carport and shed kits provide everything needed for construction, including structural steel components, roof and wall sheeting, guttering, rainwater components, downpipes, brackets, and fasteners. Additionally, a construction guide is included to assist with installing your building kit.
Do I need council approval?
Before building aanything on your property, it’s important to check with your local council authority to see if you need approval. While most properties require council approval, some rural properties may be exempt. Contact the planning and development department via phone to obtain the specific requirements for building on your property.
How long does it take to build a double carport?
The construction of a double carport can vary in terms of time frame, but typically it takes two tradespeople around 2 to 3 days to finish a standard one. However, the duration of the project may depend on the type of footing and concrete that will be used, as well as the roof style and construction complexity.
How close can I build a carport to my property boundary?
To determine the maximum distance you can build up to the property boundary, it’s important to check with your local council. The height limit can vary depending on factors such as the proximity to a street or a neighbouring property. Usually, the limit is around 900 millimetres, but it’s best to confirm with your council to get accurate information. They can provide you with this information over the phone.
How much is a double carport? (20x20ft or 6m x 6m)
If you’re interested in a double carport, the cost of a kit can vary depending on the type of roof you choose. Generally, you’ll find prices ranging from $4,200 to $9,000. For a more affordable option, consider a skillion or Gable roof. If you’d like a more high-end option, a Dutch Gable or hip-end roof would be suitable.
Can I put a roller door on a carport?
If you’re interested in installing a roller door on your carport, you can contact a local roller door installation company to do a conversion on the existing structure. This will involve adding in the necessary tracks for the roller doors and setting it up to function properly. Alternatively, you could also purchase a pre-designed carport with a roller door already included. If you’re interested in this option, simply give us a call and we can provide you with a free quote.
Can I enclose the walls on a carport?
It is possible to add walls to your carport, but it’s important to keep in mind that carports are designed to be open structures that allow wind to flow through. By adding walls, you create a surface that wind can push against, which can be problematic. To address this issue, it’s recommended to add additional bracing to counteract the wind’s effects. So, while adding walls is an option, it’s important to carefully consider all factors before doing so.
Can MSB help me design my shed?

All of these components are made using genuine BlueScope and Colorbond® materials that BlueScope provides. The warranty is subject to the proximity of the build to the ocean and how well the shed is cared for.
