Auckland bestsellers

SmartStore 1.5 × 0.7m lean-to — from $499

The tight-section shed. Sits against a fence or the house on a 400–600m² Auckland lot and still takes a mower and tools.

Garden Master 2.3 × 1.1m — from $707

The step-up backyard shed. Coloursteel or Alu-zinc, lockable door, 50-year warranty. Grey Friars and Ironsand match most new-build roofs from Silverdale to Papakura.

Garden Master 3.0 × 1.8m — from $1,100

Mower, bikes and a bench. Door position and extra height can be specified — something you will not get off the rack at Bunnings.

All Sheds are NZ made. Assembly videos included. Spare parts stay in the country. Packed as a kitset so they collect from the depot cleanly.

Why Auckland backyards are a different job

Auckland sections are getting smaller, and a Saturday hunt through Mitre 10 for the right size and colour is a half-day you do not get back. You order from us. We freight the kit to your local depot. You pick it up when you are ready — no shop, no waiting on whatever happens to be on the shelf.

Salt. Waitematā and Manukau spray is hard on cheap imported steel. Garden Master and Galvo Premium use high-tensile Alu-zinc or Coloursteel with a deep rib — the same system that has been made in New Zealand since 1974. If you are in a coastal suburb (Mission Bay, Bucklands Beach, Beachlands, Te Atatū, Hobsonville Point, Gulf Harbour), do not buy the bargain zinc import.

Space. A lean-to 1.5 × 0.7m or 2 × 1m along the boundary is the typical Auckland answer. Since October 2025, sheds under 10m² can usually sit up to the boundary without a building consent. That is most of our small SmartStore and Garden Master sizes. Always check the Auckland Unitary Plan for yard and height rules on your site.

Colour. Grey Friars, Ironsand and Ebony are the three that disappear against a new-build roof. Karaka still suits older weatherboard in the isthmus and West Auckland. Garden Master lets you mix roof, wall, door and trim colours so the shed looks like it belongs with the house, not like a leftover from the hardware aisle.

New builds. Silverdale, Millwater, Whenuapai, Paerata, Drury and the south Auckland growth belt all create the same problem: the house is finished, the garage is full, and there is nowhere for the mower. A made-to-order Garden Master (any size up to 3.8 × 3.8m, extra door, extra height) is the bit Mitre 10 cannot do.

We freight to depots covering the North Shore, West Auckland, central isthmus, eastern suburbs, Manukau, Papakura, Franklin and the Hibiscus Coast. We will confirm your nearest PBT or Mainfreight depot when you order. Rural Waiheke and Great Barrier are a conversation — phone us.

Do I need building consent in Auckland?

This is a guide, not consent advice. Check with Auckland Council.

  • Under 10m², single-storey, no plumbing, no sleeping: typically no building consent. Since October 2025 the old height-equals-setback rule has gone, so these sheds can usually go up to the boundary.
  • 10–30m² (including our larger Garden Master sizes up to 3.8 × 3.8m, which is 14.4m²): often still exempt if the shed is single-storey, lightweight, and at least 1m from the boundary and from the house. District-plan yards still apply.
  • A “studio” with a sink or a bed is a different building. Storage sheds are what we sell.

Unsure? Measure the spot and call 0508 743 348. We will tell you which of our sizes sit under 10m² and which sit in the 10–30m² band.

Steel or timber in Auckland?

Steel (Garden Master, Galvo Premium, SmartStore)

Best default for Auckland. Low maintenance, lockable, handles humidity and salt if you spec Alu-zinc or Coloursteel. Garden Master is fully custom. SmartStore is the value lean-to for a town section.

Timber (Pinehaven, QwikBuild, cedar)

If the garden is part of the house — older villas in Ponsonby, Mt Eden, Kingsland, or a lifestyle block in Whitford or Kumeu — timber looks right. It needs stain or paint. Cedar is the low-upkeep timber option.

How freight works in Auckland

  1. Choose online or call Mark on 0508 743 348. Send a photo of the spot if you want help on size.
  2. Made in New Zealand. Stocked sizes move faster. Garden Master is made to order — allow around 15 working days.
  3. Freighted to your local depot. Free to your nearest PBT or Mainfreight depot. We will tell you which one when you order. We do not deliver to the house.
  4. Collect. The depot will contact you when the kit arrives. Bring a ute or a trailer. Panels are packed as a kitset for exactly this.
  5. Assemble with the written instructions and videos, or ask us for an assembler. QwikBuild timber is a two-person job of about 90 minutes; steel kitsets are a weekend for two.

If you cannot collect yourself, a local carrier can usually do the depot-to-section leg. Phone us and we will discuss options available.

Auckland shed questions

Can I put a shed on the boundary in Auckland?

Sheds under 10m² typically can, since the October 2025 rule change. You still need to meet the Building Code and the Unitary Plan (height in relation to boundary, yards, overlay rules). Phone us with the size and we will tell you which models sit under 10m².

Do I need consent for a 3 × 3m shed?

3 × 3m is 9m², so it usually sits in the under-10m² exemption. A 3.8 × 3.8m Garden Master is 14.4m² — often still exempt, but 1m off the boundary and the house. Confirm with Auckland Council.

Steel or timber next to the harbour?

Steel, Alu-zinc or Coloursteel. Cheap imported galvanised sheds rust out on the Waitematā.

Do you deliver to my house?

No. Freight is to your local PBT or Mainfreight depot only. Collect from there.

Which Auckland depot?

Depends where you are. We will confirm your nearest PBT or Mainfreight depot when you order (Mt Wellington, Otahuhu and Hobsonville cover most of the city). Same free freight wherever that depot is.

How long to Auckland?

Made-to-order Garden Master is around 15 working days, then freight to the depot. Ask us for the current lead time before you order. The depot will call you when it is ready to collect.

Can you beat Mitre 10 on Garden Master or Duratuf?

We buy direct from the manufacturer and have no shop rent. Call with the model and we will price it freighted to your depot. Custom sizes and door positions are not on a Mitre 10 shelf.

Do you cover the North Shore / West Auckland / Pukekohe?

Yes. Freight to the nearest depot for that area. Lifestyle blocks in Franklin, Kumeu and Dairy Flat collect from the same network.
