Product Details:

Designed for Service Yards and Operational Areas

This outdoor utility shelter is particularly well suited to operational settings where reliable weather protection is required for vehicles and plant equipment. The barrel vault form provides efficient rainwater run-off while maximising usable internal space.

Typical applications include:
• Fleet vehicle storage
• Mini-bus and van housing
• Jet wash bays (including central water gully provision)
• Maintenance and servicing areas
• Groundskeeping equipment storage

Its open-fronted configuration allows easy access for vehicles and machinery, making it a practical addition to service yards and depot environments.

Barrel Vault Structure with Lattice Detailing

The defining feature of this lattice utility shelter is its curved barrel vault roof, supported by a structurally engineered frame. The lattice design introduces architectural interest while maintaining strength and stability.

Key characteristics include:
• Barrel vault roof profile
• Steel structural framework
• Lattice beam detailing
• Generous internal height and span
• Provision for integrated drainage where required

The curved roof shape encourages effective water dispersal, helping to protect both vehicles and equipment beneath.

Built for Demanding Outdoor Environments

Manufactured for permanent installation, this equipment shelter is designed to withstand the rigours of external service areas. The robust framework supports heavy-duty use and can accommodate site-specific operational requirements.

The original commission incorporated a central water gully to support jet washing activities, demonstrating the shelter’s ability to integrate with existing drainage infrastructure.

Such adaptability makes it suitable for:
• Local authority depots
• Education campuses with transport fleets
• Healthcare and hospital service areas
• Commercial estates with maintenance teams
• Leisure and sports facilities

Flexible Specification and Integration

The Lattice service yard shelter can be configured to meet project-specific dimensions and operational needs. Its modular nature allows adaptation for different vehicle sizes and circulation patterns.

It can also be specified alongside complementary external products such as:
• Cycle shelters and motorcycle parking
• Bollards to define vehicle routes
• Waste and recycling enclosures
• Covered walkways linking operational buildings

This coordinated approach supports organised and efficient service areas.

• Provides covered space for vehicles and maintenance equipment
