Training and career opportunities are an integral part of what we do and, with a looming skills shortage in our industry, it couldn't come at a better time. For more information, contact us today.

More affordable housing solutions coming to Bowden! Seventy new affordable housing opportunities have been unlocked in Bowden through a partnership between Renewal SA and UnitingSA. This initiative will further diversify the quality residential options within Adelaide’s inner-city ring. Known as Uniting on Second, the $37 million all-affordable apartment project will leverage its proximity to public transport, Adelaide’s CBD and high-quality local amenities. The development will also showcase a strong commitment to environmental and social sustainability featuring a spacious communal rooftop terrace and an extensive rooftop solar array that will reduce living costs for residents. The planning process was facilitated by Michael Dickson from Future Urban, working in partnership with the project team, including: Architect – City Collective Traffic – CIRQA Civil and Stormwater – CPR Engineers Acoustic – Resonate Consultants Sustainability – dsquared Consulting Waste – Rawtec Arborist – Arborman Tree Solutions Project Management/Builder – Kennett Builders We look forward to seeing this project come to life! Further information regarding the project is available on UnitingSA’s website: https://lnkd.in/dvfQFZ_M

Pre-Covid, finding and building greenfields facilities was a “relative” breeze. During and post-Covid it has been anything but a breeze… Despite the head winds, KBH has toiled away quietly from our little office in O’Connor and is very pleased to have compiled another impressive suite of state-of-the-art industry-leading facilities that will service our valued customers for decades to come. Projects and Acquisitions (with opening date) - KeepSafe Waroona - now open - KeepSafe Exmouth - now open - KeepSafe Joondalup - Dec 2024 - KeepSafe Coburg Nth - Jul 2025 - KeepSafe Belmont - Sep 2025 - KeepSafe Bayswater - Apr 2026 The last 4x facilities alone will add close to 4,000 new storage units to service new catchments. These are in addition to the existing award winning; Balcatta, O’Connor, Wangara & Welshpool facilities totaling over 3,000 storage units. The new projects total approximately $150mil, and these have come to fruition as a result of the team behind KBH. These projects are years in the making, to not only pull them together, but to make them industry leading. So a huge thank you to Graham Moffitt, Julia Sanders, Matt Kenny, Phil Barker and Jaime Coffey. We are also fortunate to have an amazing team of consultants and two amazing builders to bring our designs to life: - Indecon in WA, and - Kennett Builders in Vic As I’m sure our future customers are (in the new catchments), KBH is eagerly awaiting the opening of these new facilities throughout the next 24 months.
