Tunnel Containers
As the name implies the main feature of a tunnel containers is the dual-door design on each side of the container. This greatly increases access, making them ideal for storage and handling.
They are also popular for converting into self storage units because you can divide them by putting up an enclosure wall. We have also helped customers use them to house plant machinery and provide secure access to the site with turnstiles.
Dual Access
Tunnel containers are an alternative to the standard shipping container that has double doors at both ends. Known as a 'double end door container' or tunnel container, These containers allow access to stored items from both ends.
Dual-end access allows cargo to be unloaded or loaded from either end of the container. This is ideal for transporting heavier or larger objects that must be moved into and out of the box. Double-end access eliminates the need to empty the entire container to reach goods buried deep inside, which saves time and reducing the risk of damage.
This innovative feature makes tunnel containers versatile and flexible. They can be used for a wide range of storage and transport requirements, including being transformed into living spaces or mobile offices. Because they're constructed of tough and corrosion-resistant Corten steel These containers can withstand the most extreme weather conditions.
If you're looking for a more secure solution, we can weld steel bulkheads onto one of the long sides, resulting in two separate storage compartments of 10ft. This makes them ideal for self storage businesses who want to increase security by segregating their customer's items into separate areas. Double-end door containers are popular for use at large events as ticket entry points, as they can accommodate large crowds and keep them dry.
Our 20ft double door tunnel containers feature fork pockets that are suitable for industrial forklifts. This means that they can easily be stacked or lifted from the corners of each long side. We've also added PIR insulation and heaters to these units which makes them suitable for storage all year round.
If you're looking for a bespoke container solution We can also create custom-sized tunnel containers to meet your exact specifications. We can produce tunnel containers with single or double-sided versions, and different lengths. Custom-sized tunnel containers are more expensive than standard shipping containers, so we recommend choosing the closest size that will meet your needs.
Temperature-Sensitive Goods
The storage of the most hazardous items such as explosives or liquids that ignite is best done at optimal temperatures. Temperature fluctuations can alter their stability and cause explosion or release of toxic fumes. When storing temperature-sensitive hazardous goods, it's essential that container terminal facilities are equipped with the appropriate monitoring equipment to track and identify any anomalies or deviations from set temperatures.
Sometimes these fluctuations can be difficult to identify, especially during a hectic workday. This is why it's essential that container terminals use an instrument that provides real-time temperature monitoring of all reefer containers in their facility. This allows staff to react quickly in case of any abnormalities and prevent any risk.
Tunnel containers are a practical option when it comes to transporting and storing temperature-sensitive goods. Double doors are located at both sides of the container, which makes it easier to load and unload during transportation and storage. They can be used to store large items like vehicles or machinery.
look at here now modified containers are typically constructed from the standard 20 or 40 foot shipping container. The solid end is removed and new double doors is welded into place, creating two-way access. These modified containers are commonly employed on construction locations where heavy machinery needs to be moved over and under.
Some terminals convert their tunnel shipping containers to function as a secure site entrance with a turnstile, or a manually-operated security checkpoints as visitors traverse through. Although these conversions aren't readily available in standard sizes however, they can be customized to meet specific requirements and are extremely cost-effective as compared to the construction of an entire facility from scratch. Tunnel containers are typically only available in a brand new "one-trip" model because their owners design them specifically for a certain purpose and then hold onto them. They are highly sought-after by those who want to expand their business or warehouse without the need to purchase brand new refrigeration facilities. They are also a very economical solution for those who want to store temperature-sensitive goods over long periods of time, or for transporting large volumes of cargo over long distances.
Convenient Storage
A tunnel container is the ideal container to store your cargo. The containers are double doors on both ends of the container, which is different from standard dry storage containers which have a door on one end. This lets you access your storage container from either side. This makes it easier to load and unload items.
This dual entry point is particularly useful for a storage container that is used to store goods that you require frequent access to like machinery or equipment. This means you won't need to reverse your vehicle into and out of the storage container on a regular basis, which could damage both the container and your vehicle.
You can also store your goods in a tunnel container if you need to maintain a certain temperature. The refrigerator and thermal tunnel containers are ideal for this since they feature temperature control that keeps the items inside at a certain temperature.
A tunnel container is an ideal solution for a workshop or garage. It lets you reach all parts of your workspace without the need to move any furniture. The double doors at each end mean that you can get in and out of your storage container in a matter of minutes in the event of need.
One trip tunnel containers can be constructed from scratch using two sets of double doors, or adapted from a standard shipping container. In the second instance the solid end is removed from the container and a pair of double doors is joined to the other end.
These containers are usually only available in new, 'one-trip' condition, as their owners have designed them for a specific purpose and will not wish to sell them off. Some companies still offer recycled tunnel containers. The refurbished containers have been inspected to ensure that they are safe to transport and can be sold with an extended warranty for added peace of mind.
Easy Transportation
Double cargo doors on both sides of the tunnel container make it simple to load and unload items from either end. These containers are ideal for transporting bulk and general cargo, as well as specific items such as automobiles or motorbikes. These containers are often used to construct temporary tunnels on construction sites due to their durability, safety and flexibility in modifying.
Shipping Containers with double doors are extremely useful for storage. Having access to both sides of the container eliminates the need to completely unload the goods or even remove a section of the container in order to access the contents stored in the back, which can save time and money. Furthermore, the doors at both sides can be locked to prevent unauthorised entry.
These containers are made from corten steel and are designed to stand up to harsh conditions. They are wind and watertight, and they have ventilation to ensure that airflow is maintained. These features protect goods from moisture, reducing the risk of loss and deterioration.
You can choose a variety of options for a container tunnel based on your needs. For example open top containers feature a bow-top that is removable, which allows for a simpler loading of large and heavy cargo. Side-open containers have doors on the side making them ideal for the storage of small goods. A refrigerated ISO container, or reefer, has a regulated temperature and can be used to store temperature-sensitive goods.
The containers are available in new and refurbished options in sizes of 20 and 40 feet, with doors on both sides to make loading easy. They can also be sized to meet your individual requirements, but it will cost more than the standard double-end door container.
