Tunnel Containers
The key characteristic of tunnel containers, as the name implies is the double doors at the two ends of the container. This greatly improves access and makes them ideal for storage and handling.
They are popular for converting into self storage units as you can divide them by adding an enclosure wall. We have assisted customers to utilize them for storage of plant machinery and for secure access to sites using turnstiles.
Dual Access
A tunnel container is a modified version of standard shipping containers with double doors at both ends. Also known as a double end door container' or a 'tunnel container' these containers provide access to stored items from both ends.
The dual-end access permits cargo to be loaded and unloaded from either side of the container. This is ideal if you're transporting bulkier or larger items that would otherwise need to be backed into and out of the container. tunnel container for sale -end access makes it unnecessary to unload the entire container in order to access the goods that are stored inside, which reduces time and minimizes the risk of damage during transport.
This clever feature makes these tunnel containers adaptable and flexible. They can be used to satisfy a variety of storage and transport needs and can also be transformed into mobile offices or living spaces. These containers are constructed of rugged, corrosion resistant Corten steel and are able to endure the toughest weather conditions.
If you want a more secure solution we can join steel bulkheads to one of the long sides, creating two storage compartments with a total of 10ft. This makes them ideal for self storage businesses who want to increase security by separating their customers' items into distinct areas. Our double-end door containers are very popular at large events as ticket entrances because they can handle long lines of people and keep them dry.
Our new 20ft double-door tunnel containers come with fork pockets designed for large industrial forklifts, which means they can be easily stacked and lifted from the corners of both sides. We've also added PIR insulation and heaters to these units which allows them to be used for storage all year round.
We can manufacture tunnel containers with custom sizes to meet your precise specifications if you need an even more customized solution. We can create them in single- or double-sided designs, and different lengths. However the custom-sized tunnel containers will be more expensive than the standard shipping container, so we suggest selecting the one that is closest to your requirements.
Temperature-Sensitive Goods
The storage of most dangerous products like explosives or flammable liquids should be handled at the right temperature. 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.
In many cases the fluctuations are difficult to detect, particularly during a hectic workday. Container terminals need a system to monitor the temperature of all reefer containers within their facility. This allows personnel to react promptly to any anomalies and prevent any risks.
Tunnel containers are a practical option when it comes to transporting and storing temperature-sensitive goods. They feature double doors at both ends, which improves accessibility and speeds loading and unloading operations when warehousing and transportation. They can also be used to store bulky items like machinery and vehicles.
The modified containers are constructed from standard shipping containers of 20 or 40 feet. The solid end is removed, and a set of double doors is then welded to create a two-way entry. They are often used on construction sites where it is necessary to pass through and under heavy machinery.
Some container terminals convert their tunnel shipping container s into secure entrances for their site with a turnstile installed as people pass through. Although these conversions aren't offered in standard sizes, they can be easily customized to meet specific requirements and are cost-effective when compared to building an entire facility from scratch. Tunnel containers are usually only available in a "one-trip" condition because their owners design them specifically for a particular purpose and then hold onto them. They are highly sought-after by those who wish to expand their business or warehouse without having to purchase new refrigeration equipment. 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
Tunnel containers are an excellent option for storing your cargo. The containers are double doors at both ends of the container, unlike standard dry storage containers which have a door on one end. This means that you can get into the storage container from either side and have easier access and quicker loading and unloading of goods.
This dual entry point can be especially useful when storing items that require frequent access, such as machinery and equipment. This means that you don't need to reverse your vehicle constantly to and from the container, which can damage both your vehicle and the container.
You can also make use of a tunnel container to store goods that you need to keep at a specific temperature. The refrigerator and thermal tunnel containers are great for this, as they are temperature controlled and will keep the goods inside at a specific temperature.
A tunnel container is a fantastic solution for a workshop or garage. It allows you to reach all parts of your workspace easily without having to move furniture. Two doors at either end let you quickly access and exit your storage container, if required.
One-trip tunnel containers can be constructed from new with two sets of double doors, or modified from a standard shipping container. In the latter scenario the solid end of the container is removed and a set of double doors welded in place at each end of the container.
These containers are usually only available in brand new"one-trip" condition, since their owners have designed them for a particular purpose and won't want to sell them on. However, you are able to buy refurbished tunnel containers from companies that offer this type of container. These refurbished containers are tested to ensure they are safe to transport and can be sold along with a warranty that is extended.
Easy Transportation
Double cargo doors on both sides of the tunnel container make it simple to unload and load goods from either end. These containers are ideal for transporting bulk and general cargo, as well as more specific goods like motorbikes or automobiles. These containers are also often used as tunnels in the form of makeshift ones at construction sites due their safety, durability and flexibility to modify.
Shipping containers with double doors make for fantastic storage. Having access to both sides of the container eliminates the need to completely unload goods or remove a section of the container to reach the stuff stored in the back, which can save time and money. The doors at both ends can be locked to stop unauthorised access.
These containers are extremely durable, and because they're constructed of corten steel they're designed to endure harsh weather conditions. They're water- and wind-proof and come with ventilation to ensure sufficient airflow. These features protect goods from moisture, reducing the risk of loss and spoilage.
You can pick from a range of options for a container tunnel depending on your requirements. Open top containers, for instance they have bow-tops that can be removed to enable loading large and heavy cargo simpler. Side-open containers have doors on the sides which makes them ideal for storing small items. A refrigerated ISO container, or reefer, has a regulated temperature and can be used to store temperature-sensitive goods.
These containers come in both new and refurbished sizes of 20 and 40 feet, with doors at both ends for easy loading. They can also be customized to meet your individual requirements, but it will cost more than the standard double-end door container.
