DESCRIPTION
Need serious storage but only have a narrow side passage or tight courtyard? This clever 2.03-meter tall SpanBilt shed maximizes vertical space while keeping the footprint slimline - at just 1.07M deep, it fits between house and fence, along narrow side passages, or tucked into apartment balconies where traditional sheds won't work.
The tall-and-narrow advantage: Most narrow sheds sacrifice height (typically 1.5-1.8M), wasting valuable vertical storage. This 2.03M skillion roof design captures that upper zone - add shelving up the walls and you've created a mini warehouse that holds way more than its compact footprint suggests. Professional organisers emphasize vertical storage as key to maximizing limited spaces.
Perfect for space-constrained living: Townhouse courtyards, apartment balconies, narrow side passages between house and fence - this shed thrives where others fail. At 1.76M wide x 1.07M deep, it's genuinely slimline without being token storage. The 98cm door width accommodates most garden tools, bikes stood upright, or storage shelving units rolling through.
Add shelves = storage magic: The 2.03M height means you can install 4-5 shelf levels (sold separately) creating organised zones: garden tools bottom, power tools middle, seasonal items top. The slender 1.07M depth keeps everything visible and accessible - nothing buried at the back like with deeper sheds.
Built for Australian narrow spaces: SpanBilt engineers these sheds to Australian standards with wind ratings for Region A, B & C (upgradeable to C2 cyclonic). The skillion roof profile keeps the front height low (1.8M) so it fits under eaves or won't obstruct windows, while the 2.03M back provides that valuable vertical storage.
Key Features:
- Extra-Tall Height: 2.03M back / 1.8M front maximizes vertical storage
- Slimline Depth: Only 1.07M deep - fits narrow passages, tight spaces
- Generous Width: 1.76M provides good storage capacity
- 98cm Door: Wide enough for bikes, shelving, garden equipment
- Skillion Roof: Low-profile front, tall storage back
- Lockable Security: Protects tools, bikes, equipment
- Free Anchor Kit: Masonry anchors for concrete mounting
- Australian Made: SpanBilt - trusted for 40+ years
- 15-Year Warranty: Premium long-term coverage
Ideal for storing:
- Garden tools (shovels, rakes, hoses vertically)
- Bikes (2-3 stood upright or hung)
- Power tools and equipment
- Camping gear organized on shelves
- Sports equipment (golf clubs, fishing rods)
- Pool maintenance supplies
- Seasonal decorations on upper shelves
- Firewood stacked efficiently
Vertical Storage Strategy: With 2.03m height, create organised zones:
- Top (1.7-2M): Seasonal items, rarely-used gear
- Upper-Mid (1.3-1.6M): Medium-use tools, equipment
- Lower-Mid (0.8-1.2M): Frequently-used items, power tools
- Bottom (0-0.7M): Heavy items, bulk storage
Why Extra Height Matters: Standard narrow sheds (1.5-1.8M tall) force horizontal storage - everything piled on the floor. This 2.03M height lets you go vertical with shelving, multiplying usable storage by 3-4x in the same footprint.
Shelving Configuration Ideas:
- 4 shelves: 50cm spacing (garden supplies, tools, equipment)
- 5 shelves: 40cm spacing (smaller items, organised bins)
- Custom: Mix tall spaces (bottom) with shorter (upper shelves)
Add wall-mounted shelving units (not included) to transform this into a mini warehouse.
Placement Ideas:
- Side passages: Measure width between house and fence (need ~1.1-1.2m minimum)
- Under eaves: Front height (1.8M) fits most eave clearances
- Courtyards: Backs against walls, opens to courtyard
- Balconies: Check balcony weight limits (43kg + contents)
Narrow Space Sizing: The 1.07m depth is specifically designed for tight Australian spaces. Typical side passages run 1.2-1.5m wide - this shed fits with clearance for access.
Why Slimline Sheds Cost More Per SQM: At ~1.9 sqm footprint, this seems expensive per square meter versus larger sheds. But you're paying for:
- Specialised narrow design (harder to manufacture)
- Same quality materials in compact format
- 15-year warranty regardless of size
- Solution for spaces where NO other shed fits
