When it comes to outdoor storage space, versatility is key. But what do you do if you want a building that can protect your vehicle while ensuring easy access and act as a secure storage space? This is where a shed with a lean to is the perfect solution.

At Fair Dinkum Builds, we have years of experience with designing and constructing sheds with lean tos that perfectly fit your needs. We also only use the highest-quality materials and provide a 30-year system warranty, so you can rest assured you'll be getting a shed that is built to last!


Customisable Shed with Lean To

"Out of the box" sheds aren't designed with different needs in mind, which is why our sheds with lean tos are fully customisable. The size of your shed, the profile, colours, roof pitch, and a whole load of optional extras are available to you, making it possible to design a lean to shed that perfectly suits your requirements.

What are the Benefits of Building a Shed with a Lean To?

When you build a shed with a lean to with Fair Dinkum Builds, you'll be bringing a plethora of benefits to your property, including:

  • Increased Storage Space: One of the main advantages of building a shed with a lean to is the additional storage space it provides. The extension offers extra room for storing larger items, including vehicles, while the interior provides the perfect space to store other items.

  • Protection: The lean-to extension also offers protection from the elements by covering the space without fully enclosing it, while the main shed offers 360º protection and security when needed.

  • Easy Access: With the lean to attached to the main shed, you're offered easy access to your vehicle when needed, as the open design means you don't have to navigate through the main shed, saving time and effort in the process.

  • Cost Effective: By combining the two functionalities of a lean to shed into one cohesive unit, you can maximise space and functionality while reducing overall construction and maintenance costs, as there's no need for two separate structures.

  • Versatility: A shed with a lean to is also one of the most versatile outdoor storage solutions out there, and the main shed can be used to store gardening tools, seasonal items, and valuables, while the lean to is perfect for protecting vehicles or creating a covered outdoor workspace.
