3D Shed Configurator

A 3D shed configurator customers can design and price themselves

Sheds, garden rooms and barns configured in the browser — size, cladding, roof, doors and windows — with a price that updates as they go.

No credit card required

3D shed configurator showing a configurable garden building

What customers can configure

Size and layout

Width, depth and height set by the customer, with the building rebuilding around the numbers.

Roof style

Apex, pent or hipped roofs with the covering material shown on the model.

Cladding and treatment

Timber profiles, metal cladding and paint or stain finishes rendered as real materials.

Doors and windows

Door type and position, window count and placement — the choices that make a shed usable.

Floor and foundations

Floor grade, bearers and base options presented as priced choices rather than small print.

Live pricing

The total updates as options are added, so the customer knows where they stand before enquiring.

Configurable garden building shown in 3D

Show the shed they are actually buying

A shed range multiplies quickly: several sizes, a couple of roof styles, a handful of cladding options and a choice of door and window positions. Photographing that is impossible, so most sites show one example per size and leave the rest to the imagination. A configurator lets the customer place the door where they want it, pick the cladding they like, and look at the result from every side before committing.

Garden building viewed in augmented reality at true scale

Put it in the garden with AR

Size is the thing customers get wrong about garden buildings. Augmented reality places the configured shed at true scale on the ground through the camera, using AR Quick Look on iOS and Scene Viewer on Android — nothing to install. Seeing an 8 by 6 in the actual space answers the question that otherwise turns into a return or a cancelled order.

Building shed configurator options in Simplio3D

Build the rules faster, and check them properly

A shed configurator carries a lot of logic: options that only apply above a certain size, combinations that cannot be manufactured, prices that move with dimensions. Getting that right by hand is slow, and checking it is slower. Simplio3D can generate a working configurator from a product description to give you a starting point, and its AI assistant can audit an existing project — reviewing option coverage and conditional logic instead of leaving you to click every combination. For larger catalogues, the MCP server lets an assistant connect with a scoped token and evaluate logic or calculate prices directly, proposing changes rather than applying them silently.

How to build a 3D shed configurator

A working configurator from one model of your standard building.

  1. Upload your shed model

    Import the building and separate the walls, roof, cladding, doors and windows so each can be swapped or repositioned.

  2. Build the option blocks

    Add dimension inputs for width and depth, dropdowns for roof style and door type, and swatches for cladding profile and finish.

  3. Add conditional logic

    Restrict door and window positions by the size chosen, and cladding by the roof style, so every configuration is one your workshop can actually build.

  4. Price it and collect the enquiry

    Price the base building by size, then add windows, floor upgrades, treatment and delivery as options so the total is the price the customer pays.

  5. Embed it on your site

    Publish and embed it on the product page. Enable AR so buyers can check the footprint against the actual garden before ordering.

Outdoor structures configured online

Glass roof terraces priced in real time from an ERP, and pop-up tents in six sizes with AR and a quote request.

Frequently asked questions

Yes, if your model exposes those positions. Options can control which openings are visible and where they sit, with conditional logic keeping the combinations valid.

Bigger structures

Halls, garages and carports work the same way, with dimension-driven pricing and rules that keep configurations manufacturable.
