Protect your caravan at home with WA‑engineered steel sheds and carports

Perth sun, sea breeze and Fremantle Doctor can punish caravan gelcoats, seals and electrics. A purpose‑built Colorbond steel caravan shelter, custom‑built double garage in Perth, or a high‑clearance skillion carport stops UV, heat and salt corrosion in their tracks.

Why a custom Colorbond shelter beats a generic cover

  • Engineered for AS/NZS 1170.2 wind actions (N2/N3 typical for Perth) and WA coastal corrosion categories
  • Made from BlueScope Colorbond or Zincalume with long warranty support
  • Correct clearance for tall caravans and air‑cons (e.g., 2.7–3.3 m under‑beam)
  • Smart options: full-height roller doors, extra-wide bays, enclosed sides, whirlybirds, insulation, integrated power
  • DIY shed kits or turnkey build with concrete slab, drainage and council paperwork handled
Definition — Wind region (AS/NZS 1170.2): Perth is non‑cyclonic (Regions A/B). Engineers convert region + terrain + topography into an N2/N3 rating to size purlins, hold‑downs and footing details.

What Are the Best Shed Materials for Perth’s Climate?

Perth’s hot summers and coastal salt air mean your shelter materials must manage heat and resist corrosion. Here’s the quick Colorbond vs Zincalume comparison for WA.

Colorbond vs Zincalume — Which is better for WA conditions?

Feature Colorbond steel Zincalume steel
Finish Pre‑painted, wide colour range; great for matching home aesthetics Metallic silver/grey; industrial look
Heat performance Cooler colours with Thermatech can reflect more radiant heat Reflective when new, can dull over time
Corrosion resistance Excellent in Perth’s coastal C3–C4 zones when detailed correctly Very good; prefers inland or non‑marine splash zones
Maintenance Low; periodic washdown near the coast Low; periodic washdown near the coast
Best use Homes, custom Colorbond garages Perth, caravan carports Rural sheds, farm machinery storage, budget DIY shed kits
Definition — Colorbond vs Zincalume: Both are BlueScope steel products. Colorbond is pre‑painted for UV durability and colour choice; Zincalume is an aluminium‑zinc alloy coating that prioritises raw corrosion resistance and value.

Roof styles: gable, skillion or flat?

  • Skillion: modern look, simple falls for water, ideal for boundary side carports
  • Gable: classic, great airflow, extra headroom for tall vans
  • Flat: budget‑friendly but mind water management and span limits

How to Get Council Approval for Your Custom Shed in WA

Most caravan carports and enclosed sheds are Class 10a structures under the NCC. You’ll typically need a building permit from your local WA council; some sites may also require planning approval for height or setbacks. We deliver truly council-approved sheds WA with certified engineering.

Step-by-step permit pathway

  1. Site check: Identify boundaries, easements, sewer, overhead power, and coastal corrosion category.
  2. Prelim design: Choose footprint, height, bay spacing, door sizes, and slab thickness with your engineer.
  3. Engineering: AS/NZS 1170.2 wind design (N2/N3 for Perth), AS/NZS 4600 cold‑formed steel, and footing/slab details.
  4. Submit: Forms, title, site plan, engineering certificate, bushfire or heritage overlays if applicable.
  5. Build and sign‑off: Concrete, install, final inspection if required.

Added 2024 WA wind-rating compliance notes: Many Perth suburbs now specify N3 for corner or exposed lots. Coastal suburbs may require upgraded fixings, sealed laps and periodic washdowns for warranties.

Designing outside WA? We can engineer for Australia‑wide loads including cyclone-rated sheds QLD (C/C4) and rural regions. We also supply custom carports Melbourne and rural sheds NSW on request.

Definition — NCC Class 10a: Non‑habitable building such as a private garage, carport or shed. Energy ratings usually not required but insulation helps reduce heat and condensation.

5‑Step Buying Guide for Custom Sheds in Australia

  • Measure your caravan: Overall height with A/C, awnings and satellite domes; allow 200–300 mm clearance.
  • Pick materials: Colorbond for coastal/hot zones; consider insulated roof sheets to cut summer heat.
  • Select roof style: Skillion for simplicity near boundaries; gable for airflow and headroom.
  • Door strategy: Roller doors sized for drawbar swing; consider extra‑wide bays or garaport style.
  • Paperwork and site works: Confirm setbacks, stormwater, slab thickness (commonly 100–120 mm with thickenings) and electrical provisions.

Example build: Scarborough WA — caravan carport + 12V upgrade

A Perth couple needed parts and protection for a 21‑ft semi‑off‑road van near the coast.

  • Shelter: 7.0 m × 3.5 m skillion Colorbond carport, 3.0 m underside of beam, N3 design, marine‑grade fasteners, gutters to soakwell
  • Electrical: 200 W roof solar on van, 100 Ah LiFePO₄ battery, 40 A DC‑DC charger, shunt monitor, LED interior upgrade
  • Outcome: 10–12°C cooler measured under cover on 36°C day; battery SOC stayed above 70% on weekenders; zero water ingress on first winter storm

FAQs — caravan parts and sheds in Perth

Do I need a building permit for a caravan carport?

In most WA councils, yes. Class 10a structures require a building permit; some also need planning approval if you exceed height or encroach setbacks.

How high should my caravan shed be?

Measure to the highest point (A/C, antenna). We recommend at least 200–300 mm extra clearance under the lintel/beam. Many caravans need 2.8–3.3 m clearance.

Can you deliver across Perth and WA?

Yes. We offer supply‑only DIY shed kits or turnkey install across metro Perth and regional WA. Parts and accessories can be shipped statewide.

What brands of caravan parts do you stock?

We source leading brands across brakes, suspension, 12V, appliances and hardware. Ask us to cross‑match OEM part numbers for older models; we can help locate hard‑to‑find caravan spare parts Perth WA owners need.

How do I prevent rust near the coast?

Choose Colorbond for cladding, specify marine‑grade fasteners, seal roof laps, and rinse with fresh water periodically. Keep gutters clean and maintain stormwater.
