Block Mounted Shelters

Covered Storage Built onto Lego Blocks or Concrete Walls

Block mounted shelters are designed to fix directly onto lego blocks, concrete push walls, or precast panels, creating a durable covered storage space that can be positioned exactly where you need it.

Instead of relying on fixed foundations, this system allows you to build and adapt your storage bays using modular block walls, giving you far greater flexibility over layout, capacity, and future expansion.

Ideal for aggregates, recycling, agriculture, and industrial use, block mounted shelters provide reliable weather protection while maintaining full access for machinery.

What is a Block Mounted Shelter?

A block mounted shelter is a steel-framed structure that sits directly on top of concrete block walls such as lego blocks or push walls.

These walls form the storage bays, while the shelter provides overhead cover and optional cladding. Because the blocks can be moved and reconfigured, the entire system becomes far more adaptable than traditional fixed buildings.

This makes it a popular choice for sites that need to evolve over time.

Scalable as your site grows

Build flexible, covered storage around your site

Use lego blocks or push walls to create bays where you need them, then add a durable shelter over the top.

Designed for Bulk Materials & Heavy Use

Block mounted shelters are widely used in environments where materials need to be protected from the weather but remain easy to access.

Typical uses include:

  • Aggregate and quarry storage
  • Recycling and waste handling
  • Agricultural feed and grain
  • Biomass and woodchip
  • Industrial bulk materials

The open front design allows for quick loading and unloading, while the covered roof helps keep materials dry and usable
