Library/Reading Nook

For book lovers, a man cave can be a quiet retreat filled with shelves of books, comfortable reading chairs, and soft lighting. Add a coffee or whiskey bar for added comfort.

A Man Cave isn't just about what's inside; it's also about the comfort and functionality of the space. Insulate the shed, install heating or cooling systems, and add comfortable seating to make it a retreat worth spending time in year-round.

Relaxation often takes a backseat to responsibilities. With a Man Cave, you can finally enjoy a peaceful retreat where you can read, meditate, or simply soak in some solitude.

We understand your desire to personalise your space and make it uniquely yours. Wide Span Sheds offer a diverse range of additional options to help you design your shed and maximise its comfort. These options include:

• Insulation & Ventilation - Shed insulation not only helps lower your energy costs but also ensures proper air circulation, maintaining a comfortable temperature inside. Additionally, ventilation is crucial for keeping your space fresh.
• Vermin Proofing - Protect your Man Cave from rodents and insects, which can wreak havoc on it. We offer solutions to keep these pests at bay.
• Cantilever Awnings - Custom-designed awnings shield your Man Cave from rain and sun, preserving its exterior and enhancing its aesthetics.
• Eave Extensions - Add extra storage space in a stylish way with eave extensions, providing both functionality and visual appeal.
• Fibreglass Skylight Roof Sheeting - These sheets create a greenhouse-like effect or flood your space with natural light, depending on your preference.
• Window Openings - Let the outdoors in by incorporating window openings. They not only flood your Man Cave with natural light but also allow for a refreshing breeze to flow through.

Whether you need planning permission to build a man cave shed depends on several factors, including the shed's size, location, and intended use. In Australia, planning permission might not be required if the shed is for personal use and meets specific criteria, such as:

1. Size and Height: Sheds under a certain size and height (which varies by local council) may not require planning permission.

2. Setback Distances: The shed must be positioned within the legal setback distances from property boundaries, which are defined by your local council.

3. Intended Use: If the man cave is purely for recreational purposes and not for living or sleeping, it might not require the same level of approval as a habitable structure.

However, if the shed will include plumbing, electrical work, or any features that could affect neighbours (like noise or bright lighting), or if it is a larger structure, you may need to seek approval.

It's best to check with your local council for specific regulations in your area, as rules can vary significantly between regions.

When designing your Man Cave Shed, you can customise various aspects to suit your preferences, including the shed’s size, roof style (gable or skillion), and cladding options with a wide range of COLORBOND® colours. You can also add features like roller doors, PA doors, windows, and mezzanine floors for additional space. For comfort and functionality, consider insulation, ventilation systems, and vermin proofing. To enhance natural light, skylights can be included, and if planning for solar panels, ensure the shed is engineered accordingly.

Yes, it is possible to install solar panels on your Man Cave Shed. However, it's important to ensure that the shed is engineered to support the additional weight and wind resistance that solar panels introduce. This can involve site-specific engineering to meet local council regulations and ensure the structure's safety. Incorporating solar panel capability during the initial design phase is advisable to avoid costly retrofitting later.

Choosing COLORBOND® steel offers several advantages, particularly in terms of durability, aesthetic appeal, and versatility. Known for its long-lasting performance, COLORBOND® steel is highly resistant to Australia's harsh weather conditions, including rain, wind, and sun, ensuring your structure remains robust over time. Aesthetically, it provides a modern and sleek appearance, enhancing the overall look of your shed or building. Additionally, COLORBOND® steel comes in a wide range of colours, allowing you to customise your structure to match your personal style or surrounding environment, making it both a practical and visually appealing choice.
