Hot Dip Galvanised

Hot dip galvanisation is widely known to be the most reliable and predictable finish with the tidiest long-term result. The Rafters are dipped in a molten zinc bath giving an overall coating inside and out.

This results in a coating that is 2.5 times thicker than cold-formed steel which is electroplated before forming.

Designed for Your Site

All of our sheds are designed for the wind and snow loads at your specific location. Every project has a number of elements that affect how the shed needs to be designed. These factors can include the following:

• Snow loads
• Wind zone
• Terrain / Height above sea level
• Salt spray / Exposure zone
• Earthquake zone

With Alpine, you can rest assured that your shed will be designed especially to suit your proposed site location.

Clearspan

Make your shed more user-friendly with a clear span design. A clearspan structure provides you with:

• More usable space as equipment can be stacked in
• Less risk of damage from moving vehicles
• Fewer foundations to dig
• A more 'future proof' building as clearspan areas increase long-term flexibility & resale value

With the Alpine steel rafters, you also have the added benefits of the 'Hot-Box' and 'Zero-bird-perch' features.

Timber Framing

There are many benefits to using timber framing, and some may surprise you; 

• Timber framing serves for better noise reduction than an ‘all steel shed’ as the cladding is fixed to timber rather than direct to steel.

• Wood has a better structural tolerance in extreme heat than steel.

• Timber is more environmentally friendly in numerous ways.

• When wiring for electricity is involved, timber is a lot easier, cost-effective and safer to work with.

• Another great advantage of timber framing is that it allows for easy internal fit-out. The timber means you can simply nail in any additional extras such as plywood lining, shelves or hooks.
