Fence sheeting and rails great service

Ordered fence sheeting and rails over the phone. Phone staff were super helpful. Decided to pick up the rails separately from Gepps Cross before picking up the sheeting. No problem. Edward who served me even knew about the pickup and cut the rails to fit in my car. Even carried it to my car. Now that's great service.

Replacement cabinet promised but not delivered

Rang 01.04.2026 regarding a problem we are having with the Stratco 2 door titanium cabinet and was requested by the Stratco Customer Service Officer to support this phone call by email and to attach photos, which was provided the same day.
Email received from Stratco Customer Centre Service Officer on 17.04.2026:
“I do apologise that it has taken so long to get back to you, they do have 2 in stock at the Bunbury store we can have this delivered to you…
… I will organise for the new cabinet to be sent out to you.”
Email received from the same Stratco Customer Centre Service Officer on 29.04.2026:
“I have reached out to the store to get this sorted as quickly as possible, I apologise this has taken so long to get sorted but we are having the team work on it and to contact you with confirmation of the delivery”.

Rang the Stratco Customer Service Centre and left a message, 01.05.2026, for the Bunbury Store to contact me regarding the delivery and no-one has returned my call.

I have emails stating Stratco’s willingness to replace the faulty cabinet and we would appreciate if the Bunbury WA store would arrange for a replacement cabinet to be delivered.

Hi Glenda, thank you for bringing this to our attention and we sincerely apologise for the delays and lack of communication regarding your replacement cabinet.

We understand your frustration, particularly after being advised that a replacement would be organised and delivered. This is not the level of service we aim to provide.

We have passed your complaint onto our WA and Bunbury senior management teams to ensure your replacement cabinet request is reviewed and progressed as quickly as possible.

Thank you for your patience while we work to resolve this matter.

Store being refurbished

Yesterday, I purchased fencing rails at the Kadina store. As the store is undergoing refurbishing many items were not in their usual place. The first customer service chap (no name mentioned) was not helpful at all. However, Deiter spotted me wandering around confused and helped me out to no end, the purchase was completed quickly and efficiently.

I’ve been a customer of Stratco for…

I’ve been a customer of Stratco for over a year now, and throughout that time I’ve regularly worked with Zachary Vidal. Every experience has been consistently excellent.

Zach’s knowledge of the products is outstanding — he knows the range inside and out and always provides clear, confident advice. No matter how simple or complex the project is, he takes the time to understand what’s needed and guides you toward the best solution.

What really stands out is his problem-solving ability. When things get tricky or require a bit of creativity, Zach is always willing to think outside the box and come up with practical, effective options. His input has been incredibly helpful on several challenging projects.

On top of that, he’s always friendly, professional, and easy to approach. He communicates clearly, follows through, and genuinely cares about getting a good result. It makes the whole process smooth and stress-free every time.

It’s rare to receive this level of consistent service over such a long period. Zach has been an absolute pleasure to deal with, and he’s a big reason I continue to come back to Stratco.

Walked into the Blacktown store

Walked into the Blacktown store. No other customers at time we entered seen 4 staff. Not 1 spoke to us or asked if could assist. We were hovering around the outdoor kitchens, walked towards where the outdoor unit that opens up for when kitchen in use. We went back to kitchens, back and forth a female went sat at a computer and couple guys chatting. Was in store for twenty minutes. Nobody spoke to us. I asked hubby should i ask he goes no if they cant be bothered will shop elsewhere. We left there and drove 4 minutes to Weber at ECQ and was spoken to before we actually got both feet in store. Quoted over 20k for kitchen alone as they do not do the closed unit.. but thats a loss to stratco because of lazy staff

An hour after purchasing online

An hour after purchasing online, I found I had ordered the wrong thing. Stratco were so helpful and immediately agreed to refund me as they did not have a suitable product. They even called me two days later to confirm approval for the refund. I had ordered from them before successfully so just confirmed that they are an excellent company.

HM4 Shed

I bought a HM4 shed (sliding door) and overall I'm fairly happy with it. It looks beautiful and assembly was pretty straight forward with good instructions. This was a replacement to an older (10+ year old Stratco shed) and honestly I think the metal feels less sturdy for example, as door doesn't feel secure as puling the handle bends the jamb. I solid yank would probably open it, which I'm slightly worried about. Then we come to the missing parts and one incorrect item delivery. Installation manual said drill bits were supplied, but it wasn't. To be fair, contacting Stratco they did send out the correct item and missing part fairly quickly.

Thank you for taking the time to a review of your HM4 sliding door shed. We’re really glad to hear that you found the assembly straightforward and that the finished shed looks great, those are exactly the experiences we aim for.

We’re sorry to hear, however, that the door and jamb didn’t feel as sturdy as expected. Your feedback is important, and we’ll be passing this on to our product team so they can review the design and materials used in the HM4 model. We want you to feel confident and secure in your shed, so if the door is still causing concern, please send us an email to contact@stratco.com.au.

Rude staff member

Our initial visit was underwhelming as we were not greeted or helped until we had walked around and found what we needed and had to then ask for help,( in an empty store with 2 staff members ) which while she was efficient enough she made us feel talked down to. Once we were advised our order was ready for pickup, my husband was ignored for 30 minutes while they unloaded their delivery truck. When he asked if he could just pick up our items he was told quite rudely by the same sales person to go and park on the street and wait for an hour until they finished unloading. He was quite upset and left, and when he returned a couple of days later, this same woman yelled out to the staff member who had offered to help him carry the items and told him not to help. This person does not belong in a customer service role.

No communication by Stratco of backorder

Ordered fencing planks,poles, screws etc for our fencing contractor to install a new front fence. The supplies arrive on the start day, my husband asked the delivery driver where are the screws? Oh, there on back order! Rang Stratco, yes there on back order. NO NOTIFICATION of this delay to us! If they had told us we could have transferred the start date. How do you put up a fence with no screws. We now have poles and nothing else to show for it. The contractor was booked for 3 days. Now we'll have to wait until he's finished his other booked work. In a month or two. Stratco very disappointing business.
