Ashley Barrett

Managing Director

With over 12 years of experience designing and selling high-quality Australian-made sheds, Ashley keeps designs practical, strong and straightforward.

Shale Grey™ is one of Colorbond®'s most versatile and widely loved colours, ideal for sheds, garages, and steel buildings that combine modern design with classic appeal. Inspired by Australia's natural elements, this soft, warm grey is reminiscent of sun-bleached timber, coastal rocks, and silvered bark.

At True Blue Sheds, we offer a full range of sheds, garages, barns and workshops clad in genuine Colorbond® Shale Grey. Whether you're matching a coastal setting or softening a contemporary home design, this adaptable mid-grey is a customer favourite thanks to its natural tone and versatility. It's a practical colour choice for carports, backyard storage sheds, and even rural barns thanks to its ability to stay cool and hide dust.

Made with 100% Australian BlueScope® steel and available in both Trimclad and corrugated sheeting profiles, our Shale Grey sheds are engineered to handle harsh Aussie conditions and still look sharp. Every structure is ShedSafe® accredited and can be customised down to the millimetre using our online shed designer.

Choose Shale Grey™ from True Blue Sheds to achieve the perfect balance of durability, sophistication and subtle elegance, wherever you are in Australia.
