A lean-to can be an easy way to add open-air coverage beside your shed for gear that doesn’t require full enclosure—think ride-on mowers, gardening tools, or just a shaded spot to tinker outside. True Blue Sheds designs these lean-to additions with local Aussie conditions in mind, using site-specific engineering to handle everything from high winds to tropical rain.
Whether you choose a single-bay shed with a small lean-to or a sizable multi-bay layout, we can customise everything to match your goals: roof pitch, COLORBOND® colours, and more.
We only use robust BlueScope® steel frames and quality cladding for lean-to structures that stand the test of time. Want a more modern, skillion-style roof? Or prefer a gable design for classic charm? Let us know your preferences, and we’ll help you map out a lean-to shed that ticks all your boxes.

What Are Sheds With Lean-Tos Used For?
Sheds with lean-tos can be so much more than just extra cover—they can give you increased functionality, property appeal, and daily convenience. Here are a few ideas to consider.Adding a Lean-To on a New Shed Design
While plenty of customers expand an existing shed with a lean-to, it’s often simpler to design one on from the start. Popular dimensions for our custom kits are 8m x 6m for the main shed plus a 3m lean-to side extension. This allows ample space for a car or trailer while still allowing for a lockable, enclosed area.Lean-To For Large Item Storage
Many True Blue Sheds customers use lean-to areas for caravans, small tractors, or boats, specifying a slightly higher eave height of 3m or more. We recommend choosing lighter COLORBOND® roof colours like Classic Cream® or Southerly® for strategic thermal regulation.Custom Lean-To Shed Kits
Eager to DIY your build from a pre-designed kit? We deliver everything in pre-cut steel sections, from framing to roofing sheets. Alternatively, we can connect you with trusted professionals from our nationwide network.Ashley Barrett - Managing Director

Got Questions?
Get your Shed With Lean To questions answered here
How much does a lean-to shed cost?
Prices vary based on the size, materials, and design extras you decide on. We’ll provide a custom quote for your bespoke shed lean-to kit based on your specific layout.
Can I add a lean-to on my new shed design?
This is often the easiest way to do it! It also allows us to factor in any extra roofing and potential loads from the outset to ensure optimal stability for your structure.
What can be stored under the lean to portion of the building?
Vehicles, boats, garden equipment—you name it. Using our leading-edge 3D design software, we can help you accommodate anything that doesn’t need a fully enclosed space .
Do you design custom lean-to shed kits?
All True Blue Sheds kits can be fine-tuned to your site conditions and colour preferences, with partial or full side walls if required.
Do you have sheds with a lean-to for sale at True Blue Sheds?
We have everything from smaller 6m-wide residential builds to 12+ metre structures. Many customers choose a 3m to 4m lean-to, but we can integrate any depth into your design.
What is the best base for a lean-to shed?
A level concrete slab is usually ideal, but some owners use a compacted gravel base for the lean-to portion if it’s mainly open-sided.
Are metal sheds better than wooden sheds?
In many Aussie climates, steel is the go-to choice because it resists termites, rot, and fire more effectively than timber. It often requires less upkeep, making it a smarter long-term investment.
