Explore our most common questions about storage tents below.
What is a storage tent?
A storage tent is a temporary or semi-permanent structure used to store tools, stock, vehicles, equipment, or raw materials. Typically made with a steel frame and heavy-duty PVC cover, storage tents are ideal for industrial, agricultural, or commercial use where rapid deployment and cost-efficiency are essential.
What are the common uses for industrial storage tents?
Our storage tents are used across multiple industries, including:
• Construction Sites – for storing plant, tools, and materials
• Farming & Agriculture – for hay, feed, or equipment
• Transport & Logistics – as covered loading/unloading zones
• Events & Exhibitions – for temporary backstage or staging areas
• Retail & eCommerce – for overflow or seasonal warehousing
• Manufacturing – as temporary workshop or storage bays
What sizes are available for storage tents?
Our storage tents are modular and available in widths from 4m to 25m+, with adjustable lengths in bay extensions (typically 2m–5m each). Height can also be configured to meet clearance needs. Whether you need a small 6x6m tent or a 20x50m warehouse-sized unit, we can build to spec.
Are storage tents waterproof and weather resistant?
Yes. All our tents are manufactured with UV-stabilised, flame-retardant PVC covers (typically 650gsm to 900gsm) and galvanised steel or aluminium frames. This ensures full protection from rain, snow, wind, and sunlight. Many models can be certified to meet wind and snow load standards in the UK, US, and EU.
How are storage tents anchored?
Depending on your surface and site, storage tents can be:
• Ground anchored (via stakes or base plates on hard/soft ground)
• Fixed to concrete slabs (using chemical or mechanical anchors)
Our team will advise the safest anchoring system for your environment.
How long does it take to install a storage tent?
Most storage tents can be delivered and installed in 1–3 days, depending on size and complexity. We offer a full turnkey service—from delivery and unloading to full erection and handover. Self-install kits are also available for smaller models.
Are storage tents suitable for long-term use?
Yes. Although many are marketed as “temporary,” our tents are built to perform for 5 to 20+ years, depending on conditions and maintenance. We offer both temporary-use models and long-term warehouse-grade tents.
Can I heat, light, or ventilate a storage tent?
Yes. Storage tents can be fully equipped with:
• LED lighting systems
• Forced air ventilation or extraction
• Guttering & drainage
• Insulated PVC or fabric walling
We can customise your tent to suit storage needs, season, and location.
