frequently asked questions

In 50+ Years, We've Answered It All

What materials are the frames made from?

All of our shade house structures are made from tough, galvanised steel — no cheap PVC here. Each frame is carefully shaped and finished at our Toowoomba facility, using steel that’s been hot-dipped in zinc for maximum durability and long-term protection against rust and wear.

How long will my shade house last?

Our shade houses are built for the long haul. With galvanised steel frames and premium-grade shade cloth, they’re made to withstand harsh Aussie conditions year after year. We’ve even had customers return 20+ years later to upsize — with their original frame still standing strong.

Where are your products made?

All Peters Glen shade houses are proudly designed and fabricated right here in Toowoomba, Queensland. We’ve been doing this for over 50 years — and we still believe in good, local craftsmanship that lasts. We also ship Australia-wide!

What’s included in a DIY kit?

Each kit comes with everything you need to get started — the pre-cut, frame, high-quality shade cloth, fittings, and a detailed, step-by-step instruction guide. No guesswork, just straightforward building. We also ship Australia-wide! We are only ever a phone call away if you get stuck with anything during your build or have any questions. 

Why should I use a shade house?

Shade houses help you control sun exposure, humidity, and airflow — perfect for seed propagation, veggie patches, orchids, and tropicals. They also protect your plants from wind, frost, heavy rain, hail, and heat stress. Plus, they help keep out pests, wildlife, and even weeds.

Will I need extra parts or tools?

Your kit includes all the parts you need for a complete build — no additional components are required. However, you will need a few basic tools for assembly. We recommend having spanners, Allen keys, and a pair of pincers on hand to help with fitting bolts, tightening connections, and securing clips.
