All Gauteng and Western Cape units come standard with a Colorplus Steel Framed Shutter board Floor

 

There are a few different options with regards to the flooring. We recommend the option of a Colorplus Steel Framed Shutter Board Floor (R11220 per meter squared for in stock units and R1280 for non stock units). 

 

Often a concrete slab is more suitable for the larger units.

If you choose a Colorplus floor for your smaller shed , there are some extras available such as adjustable legs (R200 each) and specialised concrete holding down blocks (R200 each) necessary on loose soil and grass.
