Tunnel Containers

As the name implies the main feature of a tunnel containers is the dual-door design at each end of the container. This greatly increases access and makes them ideal for storage and goods handling.

They are popular for converting into self storage units because they can be divided by putting up an enclosure wall. We have assisted customers to use them to store plant machinery and for secure access to sites using turnstiles.

Dual Access

A tunnel container is a modified version of the standard shipping containers with double doors on both sides. It is 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 allows for cargo to be loaded and unloaded from both sides of the container, which is ideal if you're transporting heavier or bulkier items which would otherwise have to be backed into and out of the container. The double-end access also eliminates the need to unload the entire container to access the items stored inside, which reduces time and decreases the chance of causing damage during transportation.

This innovative feature makes tunnel containers versatile and flexible. They can be used to meet a variety of storage and transport requirements as well as be transformed into mobile offices or living spaces. Because they're constructed of rugged and corrosion-resistant Corten steel they are able to endure even the most extreme weather conditions.

If you're seeking a more secure option, we can put steel bulkheads to one of the long sides of the container, resulting in two separate storage compartments measuring 10 feet. This makes them perfect for self storage businesses who want to increase security by segregating their customer's items into individual areas. Our double-end door containers are a favorite for large events as ticket entrances because they can handle long lines of people and keep them dry.

Our 20ft double-door tunnel containers feature fork pockets that can be used with industrial forklifts. This means that they are able to be stackable or lifted at the corners of each side. We've also fitted PIR insulation and heaters to these units which allows them to be used for storage throughout the year.

If you're after a more customized container solution We can also create tunnel containers that are custom-sized to meet your exact specifications. We can produce containers in single- and double-sided variants, as well as different lengths. Custom-sized tunnel containers are more expensive than standard shipping containers, so we suggest choosing the smallest size that will meet your needs.

Temperature-Sensitive Goods

The storage of the most hazardous products like explosives or flammable liquids is best handled at the right temperature. Temperature fluctuations can lead to many problems, such as explosion and 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 identify, especially during the midst of a busy workday. This is why it's essential that container terminals utilize a system that can provide real-time temperature monitoring across all reefer containers in their facility. This enables personnel to respond swiftly to any issues, preventing any potential risks.

Tunnel containers are a practical option when it comes to transporting and storing temperature-sensitive goods. They are designed with double doors at both ends, which significantly improves accessibility and speeds loading and tunnel shipping containers unloading procedures during transportation and warehousing. They can be used to store large items such as machinery or vehicles.

The modified containers are constructed from standard shipping containers of 20 or 40 ft tunnel container feet. The solid end is removed, and a set of double doors is welded into place to create two-way access. They are a popular choice on construction sites where it is necessary to pass over and under heavy equipment.

Some container terminals also convert their tunnel shipping containers to be used as a secure entrance to the site, installing a turnstile or manually-operated security checkpoints as visitors traverse through. While these conversions aren't available in a standard size, they can be easily customized to meet specific requirements and are extremely cost-effective when compared to building an entire facility from scratch. Tunnel containers are usually only available in a 'one trip' condition, as their owners create them specifically for a specific purpose and then hold onto them. They are highly sought-after by those who wish 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
