Hay sheds designed for protection and efficiency.
Although hay sheds are probably one of the simplest sheds built in the agricultural industry. There still are considerations that are important to the overall design. Our building consultants will discuss with you all aspects, but to get you started visit our resource hub to refine your ideas.
Frequently asked questions.
Any questions you may have our building consultants will be more than happy to assist you.
When working with our clients we look at factors such as height clearance for trucks and machinery. Your hay shed, when built can always be extended in length but not lifted for height. You will need to ensure that traffic flow, in and out of the hay shed is seamless and without interference as this can affect your productivity and impact safety.
The position of your hay shed is important in accentuating ventilation for effective airflow.
Proper ventilation is essential for maintaining the quality of your hay. Hay quality can be compromised significantly from poor airflow. Ventilation helps to prevent moisture buildup and mold growth while ensuring optimal air circulation.
Power lines near farming equipment or vehicles can be fatal. We strongly advise that your hay shed is not built near powerlines. Hay sheds can be quite expansive in length, anywhere from 20m to over 100m. They can also stand over 7m in height. Considering height and length dimensions, we must look at traffic flow, how you will operate in and around your hay shed.
For instance, stacking hay bales, loading and unloading using equipment such as a telehandler can be quite risky, if your hay shed is near powerlines. This is something our building consultants will discuss with you in more detail.
Farming equipment such as telehandlers can reach heights of between 5 - 7 meters. Therefore it's important to consider the height when designing your hay shed. This is also true for any other farming machinery or vehicles especially when using your hay shed for machinery storage.
Height is an important factor, remembering future growth, equipment gets bigger so it's important to consider this. Your shed can always be extended in length, but height cannot be extended.
Your hay shed can be built to handle a capacity of anywhere from 500 bales to -10,000 bales, use our calculator to find out how much volume you will require.
