Series 4
Trusted by many to deliver long lasting performance when it matter most.
Series 4, the standard in basecamp shelters.
The Series 4 shelter has built its reputation on trust, withstanding some of the harshest climates on Earth. From polar ice sheets to desert heat, it consistently delivers comfort, safety, and durability when lives depend on it most. Trusted by governments, research institutes, mining operators, and relief agencies, the Series 4 is deployed on all seven continents, demonstrating its versatility and performance wherever rapid accommodation or infrastructure is required.
Flexible modular design adapts seamlessly to client-specific requirements
Series 4 is designed with adaptability at its core. With widths ranging from 2.4m to 9.0m and lengths only limited by need, the shelters can be configured for a wide range of applications. Whether supporting mining operations, hosting research teams, or acting as mobile hospitals, Series 4 adapts without compromise. Its modular, scalable architecture ensures operators can expand or reconfigure facilities as missions evolve, making it a shelter system that grows with operational demand.
Key Features
High strength, light-weight portable shelters designed for operation in all weather conditions including extreme heat, and cold.
Capable of withstanding strong winds and heavy snow loads.
Large range of standard sizes and options for extended height or custom variants.
Durable tensioned metal frame components with powered coated aluminium or galvanised steel options depending on requirement and environment.
Advanced multilayer fabric covers made from flame retardant, UV stabilised materials, suited to your operating environment.
Simple frame construction which is quick to assemble and takedown and requires no specialized knowledge or tools.
Designed for logistical movements into difficult areas.
All manufactured in our own facilities ensuring the highest quality of delivery.
Strong lightweight structure ensures rapid deployment and lasting resilience
Constructed with powder-coated aluminum or galvanized steel arches, Series 4 delivers both strength and portability. Its frame can withstand heavy snow loads, high winds, and extreme temperatures while remaining light enough for efficient transport and rapid deployment. This makes it ideally suited for remote or hostile locations where resilience and speed matter most. When weather conditions threaten operations, Series 4’s robust engineering ensures continuity, giving users confidence that their shelter will endure.
Ease of assembly reduces time, tools, and manpower requirements
Series 4 is innovative, yet remarkably simple to assemble. Its frame system requires no specialist tools, making it quick to set up or dismantle. Designed with field practicality in mind, the shelter can be deployed with minimal manpower, reducing both costs and setup time. This ease of installation is a critical advantage for military operations, humanitarian relief, and research teams working under pressure in environments where every hour can make a difference.
Options available to transform shelter into complete operational facilities
More than just accommodation, the Series 4 platform can be tailored into complete mission facilities. Weatherhaven offers solutions such as kitchens, ablutions, washrooms, laboratories, workshops, and medical wards. Options include HVAC systems, rigid flooring, power distribution, and customized insulation. Modular partitions and connectors further enhance usability, while bespoke outer fabrics and doors allow shelters to be tailored to environmental or aesthetic requirements. Series 4 evolves from shelter to fully functional infrastructure, supporting complex field operations.

Reliable in remote locations with minimal maintenance needs
When operating in isolated regions, reliability is critical. Series 4 is engineered to require minimal maintenance while still offering ease of repair if issues arise. This ensures continuity of operations in places where spare parts, tools, and technical support are scarce. Whether serving as a field hospital in Antarctica or a mining camp in South America, Series 4 provides long-term dependability, allowing users to focus on their mission instead of infrastructure challenges.
Scalable shelter solution for projects large and small worldwide
The strength of Series 4 lies in its scalability. It can form a single research shelter in Greenland, or grow into a 3,000-person basecamp supporting mining or humanitarian operations. Its proven track record across all continents demonstrates unparalleled flexibility in scope and function. Whether the need is temporary housing, permanent outposts, or a full-scale headquarters, Series 4 delivers reliable infrastructure, reinforcing Weatherhaven’s commitment to versatile, mission-ready solutions wherever clients operate.
