Leave the trailer at home.
The cart lives here.

The mission

A cart is what makes the round. Nobody comes to the club to march five kilometres with a bag on their back — they come to play golf, and riding is the luxury that makes a full eighteen a pleasure instead of a route march. Given the choice most members would rather ride, and the ones who do play more often and go round again.

But the cart lives at home, and so does the trailer. Every round starts with hooking up, loading the cart, strapping it down, towing it to the course and unloading it — then all of it again after the round, every single time you play. That is what kills the casual afternoon nine. Plenty of members own a cart and use it less than they would like purely because of the towing.

The mess

Carts end up parked wherever there is room. Behind the clubhouse, along the fences, beside the carpark, tucked in with the mowers. They are in the way of the people who have to work around them, and nobody is responsible for any of it.

On a property where appearance is most of the product, that is the first thing a visitor sees. A row of carts under covers and a trailer on the grass verge undoes a lot of good greenkeeping.

It will not rust out on you

The coastal specification adds an extra layer of zinc-aluminium protection to the steel, and it carries a 30 year warranty. Sea air, irrigation spray, wet clippings and morning dew are exactly what eats a cheap shed from the bottom up. This one is specified for it from the start, not patched later.

The same unit every time

This is one engineered unit built to a fixed specification, not a shed drawn from scratch for each club. Order four now and four more in three years and they match, line up and take the same parts. Doors, springs, wall sheets and fixings are standard items in the system, so a unit is still straightforward to repair long after it goes in.

Heavy duty steel takes a knock

Commercial grade hi-tensile steel, noticeably thicker than the light-gauge tin on a garden shed. A reversing cart, a dropped bag, a trolley wheel or a mower clipping the corner does not leave it looking dimpled and second hand. It still looks sharp in year ten.

A roller door that keeps working

A quality New Zealand made roller door system, spring balanced, smooth on its track and properly keyed. It is the part a member touches twice a day and the first thing to fail on a cheap shed. Add the remote kit and the door opens from the cart.

One contract, one contact

The job is project managed from our end. One person the club deals with, one programme, one set of dates, and trades that arrive in the right order. Nobody on the committee is left chasing a concrete contractor and an electrician around a delivery date.

Foundations and groundwork

We set out the row, sort the levels and lay the pad, along with the apron in front of the doors so a cart rolls straight out onto concrete instead of off a step into wet grass. Drainage and access for the truck are dealt with at the same time.

Delivered and assembled

Units arrive on site and our own crew stands them up, lines them through and anchors them down, and there is no scrap left on the grass afterwards. If a club would rather put them up with its own builder or maintenance crew, we can supply and leave that part to you.

Power, and whatever else it takes

Electrical work back to the club board — a charging outlet in every unit, a light on a switch, and the protection and certification that goes with it. Beyond that, engineer-certified plans and council paperwork if consent is needed, and the odd jobs a site throws up: a fence line shifted, a path to the clubhouse, planting to tidy the edge, name plates on the doors.
