Pole Shed Applications

Machinery Sheds NZ

Machinery sheds need generous access, practical height and bay spacing that reflects the actual equipment being stored. A pole shed can be configured with open bays, larger openings and selected enclosure.

Recommended shed sizes

Start with a practical size, then adjust bay widths, depth, wall closures and height around your equipment, storage and access needs.

Common bay layouts

  • High open-front bays
  • Clear access from yard or driveway
  • End bay workshop
  • Wide bay options

Roof, wall and cladding options

  • Clearspan rafters
  • Higher eaves
  • Open fronts
  • Roller door openings

Design considerations

Think about the direction of access, prevailing weather, machinery turning room, lock-up needs, door clearances and how the shed may need to change as the property or business grows.

The Baier Group shed designer helps turn those choices into a visual layout before you request pricing.
