Types and styles of shelters

In general, shelters are there to protect people from the elements and are used in a number of different ways in public spaces.

Bicycle shelters

These are shelters designed specifically for bicycles, providing a covered area to park and lock bikes. They may be located at bus and train stations, parks, or other public spaces where people frequently bike.

Bus shelter

Bus shelters are designed to give passengers somewhere to wait before the bus arrives, especially during bad weather.

Park shelters

These are shelters typically found in public parks, providing a covered area for people to rest, have a picnic, or enjoy outdoor activities. They can vary in size and design and sometimes cover picnic tables, benches, or barbecues.

The advantages of high-quality shelters

There are many advantages to choosing high-quality shelters in New Zealand. The first of these is to do with the superior-grade materials used in their construction which results in a more robust and reliable shelter that won’t let you down. They’ll be designed specifically for the weather conditions in New Zealand and won’t spring leaks as soon as you get them. Maintenance is also much lower as a result of this with high-end options typically coming from professionals with years of experience in the business. They also tend to have a better sense of style, designed with aesthetics that will suitably enhance public spaces.

How to choose a shelter that’s right for you

There are a number of things to take into consideration when choosing a shelter for a public space. The first is to determine the purpose of the shelter and look at the types that are appropriate be it park shelters, bus shelters or otherwise. You then need to start thinking about the size of shelter you want and what will be suitable for the location. Other aspects of the location should also be considered like the landscape, natural features, amenities etc. This helps you think about what features you might need from a shelter, like seating or picnic tables etc and the aesthetics that will work well with the surroundings. You need to also think carefully about the materials used in the shelter and whether they will be able to withstand the local weather conditions. This will have an impact on your budget but it’s worth investing early on to get a greater return in the long run.
