A Practical Three-Bay Garage for a Rural Property
With three roller doors, natural light and ventilation options, this custom steel garage in Diddillibah provides a versatile space for vehicle storage and everyday use on a rural property. Designed around an 11m span and 9m length, the gable-style building offers 99m² of floor space, with three access points across the front. The combination of wide roller doors, personal access and window openings provides practical access while allowing light and airflow into the garage.
Finished in COLORBOND® steel Basalt external cladding, with Southerly Custom Orb for the roof and Bluegum trim, roller doors and personal access door, the building brings together a functional layout and a considered colour scheme. For property owners planning a similar garage on the Sunshine Coast, this project is an example of how building dimensions, door placement, ventilation and access can be tailored to suit the needs of a rural property.
Functionality
Custom Designed for Access, Light and Ventilation
The garage features three roller doors, providing separate access points across the front of the building. One door measures 3m wide × 3m high, while the other two measure 2.7m wide × 2.7m high. This configuration provides flexibility when accessing vehicles and equipment, with door sizes selected to suit the building’s intended use.
Two windows fitted with flyscreens allow natural light and fresh air into the garage while helping keep insects out – a practical consideration for Sunshine Coast properties. Two Supaflow S300 whirlybirds provide additional roof ventilation, helping air circulate through the building. Roof insulation was also included, using Bradford Performa 4.0 XHD insulation with a 4mm foam core. This adds another layer to the building’s design, helping reduce heat transfer through the roof.
Planning Your Shed Height
3.6m Eave Height
With a 3.6m eave height, this garage provides useful vertical clearance for vehicles, equipment and general storage. When planning a similar building, consider the height of anything that needs to fit inside, along with any future requirements.
If you’re planning to store a caravan, motorhome or taller vehicle, getting the eave height right from the outset is particularly important. Explore our guide to caravan shed design for more information on planning a shed around your vehicle’s dimensions.

A DIFFERENT WAY TO BUILD
A Welded Portal Frame, Built into Every R&F Shed
Every R&F steel building uses our welded and bolted portal frame system, offering a different approach to construction than traditional bracketed shed kits. We’ve refined this approach over the years, working with local fabricators who take pride in their workmanship. The main structural components are fabricated before they arrive on site, so there’s already a significant amount of skilled work behind your shed before the first truck rolls onto your property.
This isn’t an optional upgrade. It’s a core part of how we design and supply our steel buildings.
