Our Customers Put Us To The Test
We Know the Struggles Because We've Lived Them.
These are the questions you should ask:
At Tough Shelters, our mission is simple: to deliver the toughest, fairly-priced container shelters, dome shelters, and alternatives to pole sheds NZ has to offer. We’re upfront about every detail - from the steel we use to the engineering that makes our shelters last. No shortcuts, no spin. Whether you choose us or not, make sure you’re asking the right questions.
At Tough Shelters, we don’t skimp on steel. Our container mounted shelter systems are built with framing up to 50% heavier gauge than many others on the market. Medium-sized shelters are reinforced with Q235 50mm x 2.5mm steel, while our larger shelters step up to 76mm x 3.5mm framing for serious strength. More steel. More certainty. Built to last.
Absolutely. Every Tough Shelter comes with double-stitched sleeves for extra durability. We use heavy-duty 610gsm PVC canopies and hot-dipped galvanised steel framing, so your container, pole or livestock shelter is built to handle the knocks and keep standing strong.
Every container shelter, dome shelter, and pole shed alternative from Tough Shelters is engineered to meet AS/NZS 1170.2:2021 standards and built in an ISO9001 accredited factory. This certification means your shelter is designed to withstand strong New Zealand wind conditions and manufactured under strict quality controls - giving you confidence it’s built right, every time.
Every container shelter, dome shelter, and all container sheds from Tough Shelters come with a genuine 10-year warranty. No hidden clauses (only clearly stated exclusions). We pride ourselves on being a straight-up family-owned New Zealand business, providing quality shelters that last. We don’t play the “cheapest price” game or run price-beat gimmicks. Instead, we focus on delivering container shelters that meet AS/NZS 1170.2:2021 standards, built in ISO9001 accredited factories, backed by competitive pricing, exceptional customer service, and a transparent warranty you can trust.
