Ready to make the smart choice?
When you need a shelter that’s adaptable, cost-effective, and easy to customise, a heavy-duty timber post mounted shelter is a smart choice. Designed with flexibility and durability in mind, these shelters are utilised across agriculture, construction, and industrial sectors.
Anchored with treated timber posts and built to SmartShelters' exacting standards, these shelters are engineered to withstand New Zealand’s extreme conditions. Their modular design also allows for internal configuration—such as logistics bays, HR facilities, or fully enclosed storage areas.

Timber post mounted shelters offer flexible installation for rural, commercial, and industrial applications. Perfect for challenging or non-standard sites where conventional structures may not fit. Our modular builds are also relocatable and can be reconfigured as your projects evolve.
Open layouts and adjustable heights provide excellent airflow and ventilation—ideal for livestock health, dry storage, or team comfort in humid conditions. Combined with SmartShield® fabric, your interior stays naturally light and up to 10°C cooler.
Compared to steel structures, timber posts are often more accessible and affordable. You’ll still benefit from SmartShelters’ proven engineering and fabric strength—just with a smaller capital outlay.
All SmartShelters are engineered to NZS 1170.2:2021 standards, ensuring your heavy-duty structure can withstand regional weather conditions.
Add bays, cladding, partitions, or internal layouts as your business grows. These shelters are ideal for long-term versatility and can be reassembled or relocated as needed—making them a smarter investment over time.
Because timber post shelters are locally produced and simple to erect, they offer faster manufacturing and installation than traditional buildings—without sacrificing structural integrity.
We’re the only genuine NZ-made shelter company—our timber shelters are proudly designed and built in Auckland, using materials that suit New Zealand’s rugged weather conditions. Unlike imported options, we provide full certification, support, and compliance.
