Why Alpine Sheds are the Easiest and Fastest to Build

In New Zealand, builders prioritise speed and simplicity in shed construction to avoid costly delays. Alpine Buildings addresses these needs with sheds that are  quick and easy to build without sacrificing quality. With over 5,000 successful projects, Alpine sheds are a trusted choice for efficiency.

Pre-Dried and Pre-Graded Timber

Alpine’s timber is pre-dried, reducing moisture content from 80% to less than 20%, making it lighter and easier to handle. This speeds up the building process  and reduces strain on builders. The timber is also pre-graded for consistent, high-quality, straight material, minimising waste and ensuring faster, more efficient  construction.

Pre-Welded Structural Steel and Bolted Connections

Alpine’s pre-welded purlin cleats on structural steel eliminate the need for time-consuming joist hangers, which typically require 6-8 screws each. The use of  bolted connections not only strengthens the structure but also simplifies and speeds up the construction process.

Triple-Checking System

Alpine Buildings takes care to ensure that no part is missed during the kitset packaging process. Each kit is checked three times to confirm that all components  are present, reducing the risk of delays or mistakes due to missing materials.

Plumb-Cut Beams

Alpine provide plumb-cut beams, pre-trimmed and ready to bolt in place, eliminating on-site adjustments and reducing labour time while ensuring a precise,  professional finish.

Non-Structural Concrete Floors

Alpine sheds don’t require a structural floor, eliminating the need for perimeter thickenings or complex reinforcing designs. This reduces both construction time  and costs.

Proven Track Record

With over 5,000 completed shed projects across New Zealand, Alpine has earned a reputation for building reliable, high-quality sheds that are quick to assemble and built to last.

Real Builders, Real Experiences

Builders who have used Alpine sheds consistently praise their ease of assembly. Northland builder Andre Nicoali loves the structural steel rafter system, stating:  “It just makes everything so much easier; the boys just go up and slot it in, drill four holes and it’s done, onto the next one.” Levin builder Rob Farmer enjoyed the ease of construction: “The timber’s great to work with, it’s dry and the poles are straight. The rafter system works great, it’s easy to install in terms of the purlins  and putting them up is real fast.”

Gisborne based contractor Charlie Johnston highlighted how Alpine made it easy for his builders: “The builders that put this shed up have done quite a few  sheds and said this Alpine shed was by far the easiest. Everything was there, they didn’t have to go back into town to get any missing parts, and that made it  easy.”

Speed Without Sacrificing Quality

Alpine sheds are easy to assemble without sacrificing durability. Predried timber reduces warping, ensuring a stable, long-lasting structure. Alpine use 5-10mm  thick, hot-dip galvanised structural steel rafters that offer strong resistance to New Zealand’s harsh weather. The bolted connections provide quick assembly and  added security, keeping the structure firm in tough conditions. Alpine sheds offer a fast, reliable solution without compromising quality. Smart engineering and  attention to detail ensure you’re building something that lasts. With lighter pre-dried timber, pre-welded structural steel, bolted connections, and a triple-checking  system, the kitset design allows for easy assembly. With over 5,000 successful projects, Alpine sheds are a proven choice for builders seeking efficiency and  durability.
