Lockwood has been exporting pre-manufactured homes and commercial buildings around the globe for over 50 years. Designed to perform in extreme climates, our durable homes are ideally suited to regions prone to cyclones, earthquakes, or remote building conditions—making them a popular choice throughout the Pacific Rim, Asia, and beyond.
Each Lockwood building is custom-designed and fully pre-manufactured at our facility in Rotorua, New Zealand. Components are precision-cut and carefully packed into containers for efficient transport and easy on-site assembly. We manage all logistics, including freight and phytosanitary export requirements, to ensure a smooth import process.
Our homes and buildings are designed for fast and straightforward construction. They can be assembled by local contractors with basic training, and construction support is available to to maintain our high standards, wherever in the world you’re building.
We guide you through the design and costing stage and can assist your local representatives with navigating local consents or building regulations. For remote projects, we also offer the option to include additional materials beyond our standard scope, such as kitchen and bathroom fixtures, joinery, and even paint, to simplify sourcing and ensure a cohesive, high-quality result.
We specialise not only in residential builds but also in commercial and institutional projects, including churches, meeting houses, clinics, schools, and accommodation. Our low-maintenance materials and robust construction make Lockwood buildings a smart, long-term investment for a wide range of applications.
