We like to keep things as easy as possible. For our container mounted shelters, all you need to do is ensure that your site is level and compacted. To hold the containers in place, you can choose to use either ballast in the containers or concrete footings, or a combination of the two methods – whichever works best for you.
For pole mounted shelters, the site requirements are also very straightforward. A clear, level site is usually all that we need, along with information about ground conditions. Our sales consultants are always happy to talk through your specific situation, so don’t hesitate to call us if you would like to discuss things in more detail.
Your site has a required wind rating based on council wind map standards. We design and engineer your SmartShelters structure to suit the wind conditions of your specific site. These ratings vary, and we have supplied structures with wind ratings of more than 290km/h. Get in touch to find out what you require for your site.
