Shade houses can provide the [best growing environment](https://www.cmac.com.au/nursery-equipment/shade-house-with-special-woven-fabric-cover) for your greenery. Some of you may be thinking about designing and building a shade house. Designing a shade house may not be an easy task for you. Hence, considering different factors and conditions beforehand is always essential. You can determine early signs of issues and prevent certain problems from happening that could bring you headache later on. This blog post will guide you on shade house designs and constructions that you can use for your garden. Read on below. ## **How should you plan your shade house?** Before anything else, you should consider these few points when planning to buy or build a shade house. Below is a general shade house guide that every gardener should follow. Most hobbyists build their shade houses to house the maximum number of plants. Maximum bench space is the priority. Pathways should be kept to a comfortable minimum. Remember you will be looking for more bench space if all goes well and grows well. I read the other day that the golden rule of orchid house construction is "Work out how big you want it, build it twice as big, and it will only be half big enough" 1. ### Site preparation #### Basics When preparing your shade house site, the first main item on the list should be [nursery basic tools and equipment](https://www.cmac.com.au/nursery-equipment/other). These tools include containers for growing mediums, pots, seedling flats and hand trowels. Some hobbyists prefer to use biodegradable pots that can be stored in a waterproof container. #### Shade house location Choosing a good location for your shade house is also necessary. Here are a few questions to guide you. - What is the distance between the shade house’s location and where the water supply is? - Does it have a good drainage during wet seasons? - Is the ground levelled? - Are there any weeds nearby? - Are there any big trees nearby? - Is the location accessible to trolleys, wheelbarrow, etc.? - Is the space available for expansion? Going through this checklist can help you evaluate whether your chosen spot is a good one. 1. ### Shade house interior #### **[Shade house shelving](https://www.cmac.com.au/nursery-equipment/benching)** Your shade house should have the right benches or shelving to get your plants off the ground. If you are using any wooden nursery benches, make sure to paint it with a semi-gloss paint for easy cleaning. Doing this will also help protect your wooden benches against moulds. Remember, getting the optimum air flow is important. #### **Storage area** If you want to make use of your shade house space, you can utilise the area under the bench to store gardening tools. You can also use an unused bench or wall to cater for other small items. 1. ### Environment control #### **Shading cloth** [Choosing the shade cloth](https://www.cmac.com.au/blog/choosing-right-shade-cloth-for-your-plants) that will be suitable for your shade house must be thoroughly considered. Also, when selecting your shade nets, you have to consider what density percentages you will need. After planning and preparing for all the things you need when building a shade house, you should also know the different types of shade house that you can build. ## **Shade house designs** [Shade house designs](https://ag.umass.edu/greenhouse-floriculture/fact-sheets/retractable-roof-greenhouses-shadehouses) can vary according to your preference. You can choose from different types of shade house designs below: - ### Lath house Lath houses are framed structures that are covered with wood lath. Lath houses are also known as original shade houses. Lath houses usually have straight sides and a flat top. The lath house frame is similar to a regular shade house but the cover consists of removable wooden strips. - ### Cable frame shade houses In cable frame shade houses, posts that are surrounded by concrete are set into the ground. Deadmen provide the bracing for the tension of the wire. The roof can be fixed with any shade cloth. - ### Rigid frame shade houses For rigid frame shade houses, the shade cloth is attached to roll formed truss through the screws. Diagonal knee braces create the rigid frame diagonally and horizontally. - ### Retractable roof shade houses Shade houses with retractable roofs use the same technology like the one in greenhouses. You can either use a cable or truss to support and carry a design wind load. If you want to build a shade house on your own, below is a quick guide on how to construct it. ## **Quick construction guide** Most of the materials needed to [build a shade house](http://organicterrace.in/blog/how-to-build-shade-house/) can be obtained in a low-cost. Here are the basic materials that you can use: - Poly-pipe arch - Star pickets - Ceiling battens - Shade cloth - Tie wires - Hinges and mesh screen door - Latch - Brackets - metal strapping and tacks - threshold To start, here is a [quick building guide](https://eon.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/publication_001.pdf): 1. Choose the best spot wherein you can build your shade house. Clear the area if there are any rocks, nutgrasses, sharp objects, etc. 2. Estimate where your corner pickets should go and lay them on the ground. For the measurements, you can always refer to your available space. You may also want to call somebody to help you install corner posts. 3. Drive the pickets into their respective places according to your measurements. 4. Place the poly-pipe arch over the pickets. 5. Drill in the battens over the centre of the arch and secure it with screws. Make sure that the holes line up exactly with the pickets. 6. Roll out shade cloth and place it on each poly-pipe. Attach the cloth temporarily and fasten it to the centre batten with tie wires. 7. Secure each length of the cloth with cable ties and make sure it is tight. Cover the remaining part of the shade house (front near the door) with shade cloth. Cut off the excess cable ties to make it neat. 8. Place the threshold under the door opening. Attach the door at the front, making sure it closes easily. Then put the latch in place. ## **Conclusion** Your shade house can be your biggest asset in your garden. It protects your green life from insects and harsh environment and helps your plants grow healthy.  Before building, planning ahead can help you construct your preferred shade house successfully. However, there are [DIY shade houses available](https://www.cmac.com.au/nursery-equipment/shade-houses) on the market today if you want to spend less effort on designing and building a quality shade house. You can build it easily with the materials and instruction provided. [![Looking For Shade House Kits Supplied Locally in Sydney (Made in Australia)?

C-Mac made changes to the tooling to make access and ease of use to decrease service down times. \*\[Service Manager\]\* An industrial fan service company had a failure of a major shopping centre air conditioning fan/ blower. C-Mac repaired the unit within a 24hr turn around for minimum downtime. \*\[Owner/Manager\]\* A major food manufacturer specializing in tomato sauce had a filling machine breakdown. The machine was brought to C-Mac and repaired in 24hrs for minimum downtime of the production line costing $5,000 per hour. \*\[RAAF - Warrant Officer\]\* Airfield support staff required a portable sandbagging frame and requested a design, prototype and trials at no cost. There was nothing suitable on the market i.e. made in Australia. "Sandbagging Frames":materials-handling/1-bagging-equipment#silt-bagging-frame are now on the national procurement data base and some probably overseas at different war zones. \*\[Mechanical Design Engineer\]\* An automotive transmission design customer needed help with designing an automatic transmission gear prototype. We suggested and engineered a more cost effective and practical way for the mass production stage. \*\[Nursery Manager\]\* At an exhibition saw our self tracking nursery trailers and indicated he had a costly issue transporting large (heavy) pots containing advanced trees. Existing method was a bobcat. C-Mac designed and quoted for the manufacture of a Self Tracking “Low Loader”. His comment on the first day of using "Low Loader trailer":nursery-equipment/7-trailers/#low-loader-self-tracking-trailer “Can now move 100 litre pots with trees, 150 metres in 1 hr and not get a sore back”. \*\[Purchasing Officer\]\* A mining design and machining company needed help with machining components urgently as they were too busy to keep up with the demand. C-Mac machined the components so the deadline could be met. \*\[General Manager\]\* Customer had to submit a proposal and compete against other countries for the manufacturing facility. C-Mac submitted drawings to show there was space in existing plant to install the new process and to comply with all Australian OH&S Standards. Working together with customer to submit proposal to the Head Office overseas WON the contract. Project was a success meeting 6month lead time and budget. \*\[Nursery Owner\]\* Needed a specific Potting & Mixing machine. for his yuccas nursery, but the problem was it was no longer manufactured. From his description and specifications our engineers designed and modelled in 3D software his requirements. "Potting Machine":nursery-equipment/3-potting-machines/ was manufactured and fully tested with potting media in our workshop, video was then sent to customer who was very pleased with the results.
