Retractable Gazebo
Stratco describes the gazebo as:
Protect your family and friends from the elements under the Sunscape Retractable Awning. This Gazebo is suitable in all types of weather and the retractable awning can be open or shut.
- Spun polyester canopy for durability
- Painted steel frame for strength
It does not appear to be steel at all, it very bendable aluminium. The strength was what attracted me to it. After setting it up it is very wobbly, and definitely not “suitable for all types of weather”. In the end it is very expensive for a cheaply made aluminium gazebo. If we get a year or 2 out of it, I’ll be happy. But at the moment I feel lied to and ripped off. I should have bought the cheap Bunnings one.

Stratco rang and refunded some of the cost. They appreciated the feedback and said they will review the product. I’m happy with the resolution.

Friendly, helpful and professional
We had to replace fences and damaged goods after the recent bushfires, the assistant was knowledgeable,helpful and empathetic. We ran over time when the store should have been closed but there was no pressure to move on

Great service
We had a delivery yesterday. The delivery gentleman, Sahi was a true gentleman, polite and helpful. It was a delight to dealing with him. Thanks for employing people like Sahi.

Cooldek Pergola Kit
l highly recommend Stratco Deer Park in Victoria for the service and the help with the pergola kit l purchased. Scot Hyland went out of his way to help me with the design, colour selection and engineering information that l needed. Also the delivery driver Sahi went out of his way to helpme move the kit into the side access of my home. l could not be more pleased to have bought the from Stratco and with the service they provided.

Customer service.
Customer service was ok until the product was delivered. Parts were missing and it was difficult to get Stratco to get the parts delivered in a reasonable time. We had to continue to chase them up to find out where the parts were. They said they would call be we did not receive ANY follow up from Paul unless we called and asked to speak to him.
I would not recommend Stratco Deer park to anyone

Product is of good quality...but!
The ordering of the shed is simple and easy. The quality is great, however I was delayed a week when I had 2 different coloured wall sheets delivered and a few stuff ups from stratco in trying to rectify the issue. Instructions could also do with an overhaul, particularly the roller door section as it's generally guess work as they are not very accurate or descriptive. The instructions for roller door don't even show you how to attach roller for to the frame or roller roller door brackets. So I will be doing what I think is right instead of relying on the provided instructions to guide me.

Hi Dan, thanks for your feedback. Glad to hear you're happy with the quality, but it sounds like we could improve the roller door instructions. We'll be reviewing what we can do to improve in this area.

extremely difficult to deal with - would never use again
We ordered a clear span gable with attached pergola kit which was delivered by a very helpful delivery man on time, although no inventory of parts was provided. That is the only good thing I can say about the whole experience. The initial ordering experience should have warned us. The guy we dealt with (Damien) kept getting the design wrong - he couldn't work out the difference between length and width. After several goes trying to get it fixed with him, we finally got this sorted with Vicki over the phone and thought all would be OK from then ...Read more
on. However, because we didn't have a standard design the "installation" videos and written material weren't helpful. The brackets and fittings we were given weren't even shown on the video or any of the printed material so it was hard to see how they were supposed to go together. Phone calls to both the head office and to the store were useless as no one ever returned a phone call, and the store seems to have a very high staff turnover so the person we dealt with last time is not there the next time. We did get to speak to the so called "expert" at one stage who gave us completely the wrong info about how the brackets were supposed to work and what measurements they had used, which made the whole thing even more confusing. The brackets provided seem so small and flimsy we could not believe that was how they were supposed to work. We did not at any stage receive detailed drawings with measurements - they only the overall measurements which did not always match the measurements of the materials we actually had. Finally after several return visits to the store which did not make anything any clearer, we got to speak to Kyle who was very helpful. However, there is an interactive video which if we had a copy of, would allow us to see the design in detail, turn it around etc. Damien offered to send it but didn't, and Kyle has tried to email it to us but the Stratco system apparently won't allow it to send. Head Office denies that such a program even exists, although we have looked at it in store. No one at Head Office is ever available to talk, and so far have failed to return 4 phone calls - we still haven't completed the build.1 comment

Disaster from the off.
I arranged for a stratco rep to come around to my house to supply a quote to replace my already existing veranda.
The rep (Steve) came around in late July on the time and date as planned and discussed options. A week later Steve called to say that the documents were ready for collection as it needs council approval. On two occasions now I have taken this information pack to my local council only to have them reject it due to lack of information. Four and a half months have now passed and we are no further down the line. Frustrating is not the word. We are seriously contemplating taking our business elsewhere.

Poor Everything.
Bought a gable roof shed, parts were missing, came bent, damaged and scratched. Was given wrong instructions and what instructions were given provided little detail to complete job. Shed was overpriced and poor customer service at store.

Fantastic Service by Roland Mapa
Roland was very helpful and explained thoroughly about my order. Roland went out of his way to make sure that I got some materials by delivering personally to my place, that to me is excellent customer service which does not exist nowadays. Well done. Eddie Webb

Stratco 6 x 4 Gable Shed - What a joke
Your bring the dream, ...........they dont know the how to? They should re-write the slogan, You bring the dream, we will show you how incompetent we are. I had ordered several shed kits from Stratco before without a problem. This time it was a total stuff up.
The shed arrived with the wrong purlins. I rang up and informed then that I wanted the correct items delivered in 2 hours which they did. Then when it was time to install the wall sheets it was the wrong size and colours. Here again I complained and sent an email to the state manager an...Read more
d the problems was fixed the next day. Then it was the 3M roller door what an absolute @$#%&^$&*. These people simply sent me an off the shelf roller door that did not fit the shed. My installer had to carryout serious modifications to get it to fit. I now have a shed that you have to duck your head to go thru. I am in the process of going to consumer affairs to get a serious credit for the shed. I had to pay the installed an extra $350 which Stratco paid me for the extra work. Several days after I finished the shed I received another batch of material and it was from another client that was getting Stratco to build a new shed. He was waiting weeks for the material and they delivered it to me. I called him and he was not happy.. I dont believe that there is quality assurance system in place. They should not sell kit form sheds. They make a good shed with bad engineering and service. Furthermore there was only one salesman Luke that had a clue. Cant say much for the others.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Very happy!
The customer service was great, I like the quality of your product as well, I like the fact that it's all pre-cut, pre-pressed. I like the fact that it's a c-channel truss, rather than just a little tinny frame. Overall I was just quite impressed

Can you buy a Frontier Double Carport with clear roofing instead of a zinc roof as I would like to place one over a pool but still let the sunshine in.

Thinking of installing a flat roof pergola - how do they go in high wind storms?

Hi Amanda, our large carport has just been built. In answering your question, there hasn't been any strong storms/winds Our structure from Stratco is quite strong. If you have any concern, you really should direct that question with the Salesman thats given you the quote.

Ingrid L.asked
I have just had stratco ambient blinds installed and one is hanging down lower on one side than the other. Does not retract fully. Is this fixable
1 answer
Hi Ingrid, when you had your ambient blinds installed didn't you question it with the tradies? Every step of my carport that didnt look right I questioned it at that moment. I look time off work but I have to say the tradies I had were fantastic and very professional. My advice to you, contact the installer and complain that you're not happy with the craftsmanship.
