Additional Steps to Strengthen Security:

  • Install security cameras: Act as a visual deterrent and provide valuable footage in case of an incident.
  • Upgrade lighting: Motion-activated lights can discourage potential intruders.
  • Secure access points: Reinforce windows, install alarms, and ensure only authorised personnel have access.

By taking these preventative measures, you can reduce the likelihood of a break-in and protect what matters most.

Frequently asked questions

Do personal access doors in sheds need to be wind rated?

Yes. In most engineered sheds, personal access doors must be wind rated to suit the site’s Australian wind region and meet engineering requirements.

What wind regions apply in Australia?

Australia is divided into wind Regions A, B, C, and D, with increasing wind severity. Doors must be tested and approved for the applicable region.

What happens if a shed door is not wind rated?

A non-compliant door can delay engineering approval, prevent building certification, or require replacement after installation.

How do I know if a personal access door is wind rated?

A wind-rated door should have supporting test reports or certification, clearly stating the approved regions and installation requirements.
