How to Build a Shed Videos
To better help our customers build their sheds, we have created a series of diy shed building videos. Let us know if you have any questions or have a video request.
User Friendly Design
Designed by an engineer who has personally built well over 100 sheds, and in doing so, worked out the best way to design sheds that are user-friendly to build. We have used our experience from building sheds, to gradually refine our shed kits, making them easier to build. The end result of this refinement is a shed kit that is marginally harder to make, but much quicker to build.
Easier to Assemble, “Like Lego”
It is essential for businesses to have a goal. We decided that ours would be to make sheds that are easier to assemble on site. Putting more emphasis and care into the manufacturing phase reduces mistakes and results in less time spent on site.
What Makes Our Shed Kits Easier to Assemble?
Our shed kits use bolted connections instead of tek screws, even on our smaller sheds. We do still use teks for sheeting, to ensure that they are watertight.
- Largely Bolted together
- Purlins bolted to rafters
- Girts bolted to columns
- Less reliance on teks holding the structure together
- Bolt holes are pre-punched, minimising the need for constant measuring and reducing mistakes
To Your Unique Requirements
Your requirements and ideas are different. Seldom do two customers need the exact same shed, which is why Roys Sheds communicates with you, understands your unique requirements, and ensures that they are met.
Visualise Your Vision
To accomplish our customers’ vision, we have created a custom, in-house, interactive 3D shed design software that allows us to virtually design your shed.

Structural Grade Steel
A Roys Shed is composed of structural grade steel, providing the strength to last. We only source quality materials and always use a qualified engineer to review all of our designs.

Roys Sheds has gone through the process of becoming a registered builder to uphold the standards conveyed by the Building Commission of Australia (#101219). This allows us to better assist our clients, offer advice and use our expertise to supply and build sheds.
