Tunnel Containers
As the name implies, the key feature of tunnel container is the dual-door design at the opposite end of the container. This greatly increases access and makes tunnel containers ideal for storage and goods handling.
You can also turn them into self-storage units with the addition of an enclosure. We have also assisted customers use them to house equipment for their plants and to provide secure site access using turnstiles.
Dual Access
Tunnel containers are modified version of the standard shipping containers that have double doors on both sides. Also known as a double end door container' or 'tunnel container' These containers allow access to stored items from both ends.
The dual-end access permits cargo to be loaded and unloaded from both sides of the container, which is ideal when you're moving larger or bulkier goods that otherwise would need to be backed in and out of the container. The double-end access makes it unnecessary to unload the entire container to access the items stored within, which saves time and decreases the chance of causing damage during transportation.
This unique feature is what makes these tunnel containers so versatile and flexible. They can be used to fulfill various storage and transport requirements, as well as being converted into mobile offices or living spaces. These containers are constructed of durable, corrosion resistant Corten steel and can stand up to the most severe weather conditions.
If you want a more secure solution, we can weld steel bulkheads onto one of the long sides, creating two separate storage compartments of 10 feet. Self-storage companies can use them to divide their customers' belongings into different areas, thereby increasing security. Our double-end door containers are also popular as ticket entrances at large events, since they're easily able to accommodate crowds of people while keeping them dry.
Our new 20ft double-door tunnel containers come with fork pockets that are suitable for industrial forklifts that are large, which means they can be easily stackable or lifted from the corners of both sides. We've also fitted PIR insulation and heaters to these units, making them suitable for storage throughout the year.
We can make tunnel containers in custom sizes to meet your exact requirements if you require a more bespoke solution. We can make containers in single- or double-sided designs, and different lengths. Custom-sized tunnel containers are more expensive than standard shipping containers, so we recommend selecting the most suitable size that is suitable for your needs.
Temperature-Sensitive Goods
Most dangerous goods, such as explosives, flammable liquids, and organic peroxides, require storage at temperatures that are optimal. Temperature fluctuations can alter their stability and lead to a 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 these fluctuations can be difficult to identify, especially during the midst of a busy workday. Container terminals must use a system to monitor the temperature of all reefer containers within their facility. This allows staff to react quickly in case of any anomalies and to avoid any potential 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 significantly increases accessibility and speeds loading and unloading processes during transportation and warehousing. They can also be used to store bulky items such as machinery and vehicles.
These modified containers are usually constructed from the standard 20 or 40 foot shipping container. The solid end is removed, and the double doors are welded in place, creating two-way access. These modified containers are typically used on construction sites where heavy machinery must be able to pass over and under.
Some container terminals convert their tunnel shipping containers into secure entrances for their site by installing a turnstile when people pass through. These conversions, which aren't available in standard sizes, can be easily modified to meet the specific needs. They are also more cost-effective than building an entire facility. Tunnel containers are generally only available as a 'new one trip' condition. This is due to the fact that their owners construct them for a specific purpose and then hold on to them for a period of time. They are therefore highly sought-after by those who want to expand their business or warehouse without having 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
If you're looking for storage for your cargo, a tunnel container is a convenient option. These shipping containers have double doors on both sides of the container, in contrast to standard dry storage containers which have one door at the end. This lets you access your storage container from either side. This makes it easier to load and unload items.
This dual entry point can be particularly useful when storing goods that require frequent access, such as machinery and equipment. This means that you don't have to continuously reverse vehicles in and out of the container, which could harm your vehicle as well as the container.
You can also use a tunnel container to store things that you want to keep at a specific temperature. The thermal and refrigerated tunnel containers are perfect for this because they come with temperature controls that ensure the goods stored inside are kept at a particular temperature.
In addition to offering easy access, a tunnel container is an ideal solution for garages or workshops as it permits you to easily access all areas of your workspace without having to move things around. The double doors at each end allow you to get in and out of your storage container in a matter of minutes if necessary.
One-trip tunnel containers can be built from new with two sets of double doors, or adapted from a standard shipping container. In the second instance the solid end is removed from the container. A pair of double doors is joined to the other end.
The shipping containers are generally only available in brand new"one-trip" condition, since their owners will have created them for a particular purpose and will not wish to sell them on. However, you are able to purchase refurbished tunnels from a few companies who offer this type of container. The refurbished containers are tested to ensure that they are safe to transport and are available with an extended warranty.
container tunnel design on both ends of a tunnel container makes it easy to unload and load items from either end. They are perfect for transporting bulk and general cargo, as well as specific objects like automobiles or motorbikes. These containers are often used to construct temporary tunnels on construction sites because of their durability, security, and ease in modification.
Shipping containers with double doors are excellent storage. Having access to both sides of the container means that there is no 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 will save time and money. Furthermore, the doors on both sides can be locked to prevent unauthorised access.
These containers are constructed of corten steel and are designed to withstand harsh conditions. They're water and wind-proof and are equipped with ventilation to ensure that there is enough airflow. These features can safeguard your goods from moisture and decrease the chance of loss or loss or.
You can choose a variety of options for a container tunnel depending on your needs. Open top containers, for example, have a bow-top that can be removed to enable loading large and heavy cargo easier. Side-open containers have doors that are set on the side of the container making them ideal for the storage of smaller items. A refrigerated ISO container, or reefer, has a regulated temperature and can be used to store temperature-sensitive goods.
These containers are available in refurbished and new models in 20ft and 40ft sizes and have doors on both sides to allow for easy loading. The containers can be customized to meet your needs, but will cost more than a standard double door container.
