Stockman single garage shed with gable roof

Gable Roof Single Garage Sheds are the time-honoured choice, fitting like a glove with traditional Aussie homes. If you’ve got a tinny or some hefty gear to store, you can hoist up the overall height of your single garage shed and pop in a wider roller door for smooth sailing.

Your typical “Single Garage Shed Kits” are around 2.4m tall, but here at Stockman Sheds, we reckon you might want to think about 2.7m - 3m. This extra bit of height is a small add-on, but it bumps up your storage capacity – all for the same slab and roof costs.

Backed by a 20-year warranty, our Gable Roof Single Garage Sheds are knocked up with the top-notch 100% Aussie steel.

Stockman single garage shed with skillion roof

Our Skillion Roof Single Garages are a great fit for any Aussie property, blending seamlessly with all architectural styles. Their design allows you to position the high side of the roof any way you fancy, making it a top choice if you want a taller roller door or more natural light. These are great for a caravan shed.

The standard single garage shed is about 3m x 6m, but at Stockman, we suggest going at least 4m wide and 7m deep. This gives you plenty of space to move around your vehicle and store gear.

With our customisation options, we adjust the width, depth, or height to craft a garage shed that suits your lifestyle perfectly.

Stockman single garage shed with garaport

In need of a spot for your camping gear, vehicle, toys, or a boat? Our single garage shed with garaport could be the perfect solution. This design offers a generous 3m x 12m space, divided into a 3m x 6m enclosed shed and a matching open-air carport.

The garaport ain’t just a pretty face – it’s a cracking spot for a BBQ or a yarn with your mates. Thanks to its open-air design, you can keep your shed roller door open come rain, hail, or shine.

Made with top-notch Australian steel, our Single Garage Shed with Garaport comes with a 20-year warranty. Plus, it’s yours to customise: size, colours, roller doors, windows - whatever you need, we’ll tailor it. And if you’re after more space, why not eye up our double garage shed or triple garage shed? It’s not just a shed, it’s a lifestyle extension.

Stockman single garage shed with lean-to

A smart choice for a Single Garage Shed is to tag on a lean-to on the left or right flank (Quick Stockman Tip: best to have your lean-to facing your yard - perfect for a bit of alfresco entertaining). This bonus stretch provides that extra room for a get-together with mates or a snug spot for a vehicle or trailer.

If you’re planning on using your lean-to for a vehicle, make sure the opening is a solid 3.5m. As with all of our Stockman Sheds, your Single Garage Shed with Lean-To can be modified to meet your every whim. It’ll become a key part of your lifestyle!

Frequently Asked

Single Garage shed questions, answered

What size is a standard single garage shed?
The Australian standard single garage is 6m × 4m — comfortable for one car, motorbike storage and tools along one wall. Stockman builds singles from 5m × 3m (compact, just one vehicle) up to 9m × 5m (single car with workshop bay or boat extension). The depth (length) matters more than width — a long single-garage suits a workshop pattern.
How tall should a single garage be?
Most kit single garages are 2.4m wall height, which suits a sedan or hatchback. Stockman recommends 2.7–3m — costs almost the same in steel and roof, but gives clearance for SUVs, 4WDs with rooftop tents, hoists and overhead storage. Go higher (3.6m+) if you're storing a 4WD with roof rack, a small caravan, a campertrailer or want to install a hoist.
How much does a single garage shed cost in 2026?
Most Stockman single garages run $15,000 to $25,000. A standard 6m × 4m × 2.7m gable garage starts around $15,000–$20,000; a wider 6m × 5m or skillion-roof variant lands at $18,000–$25,000; oversized singles with workshop or boat extensions push past $25,000. Final price depends on size, height, slab spec, council overlays and finish features.
Single vs double garage — which is right for me?
Single makes sense if you have one vehicle, limited block space, or just want secure storage with a small workshop bay. Double garage makes more sense if you have two vehicles, want a workshop alongside, or plan to add a caravan or trailer later. The cost difference is smaller than people think — a double is usually only 30–40% more than a single, not double, because the slab and roof scale better.
Do I need council approval for a single garage shed?
Yes, in most cases. A single garage at 6m × 4m × 2.7m exceeds all three Class 10a thresholds (10m² / 2.4m / 5m), so it triggers a building application. Stockman handles the council application, certifier inspection and any overlay checks (character, slope, flood, bushfire) as part of the build.
