Tunnel Containers
The main feature of tunnel containers, as the name implies is the dual door design at both ends 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 a partition. We have also helped customers utilize them to store equipment for their plants and to provide secure site access using turnstiles.
Dual Access
A tunnel container is a modified version of standard shipping containers with double doors at both ends. These containers are also referred to as a "double end door container" or a "tunnel-shaped container". They allow access to the stored items on both ends.
Dual-end access allows cargo to be unloaded or loaded at either end of the container. This is ideal for transporting larger or heavier items that need to be moved into and out of the box. The double-end access eliminates the need to unload the entire container to access the items stored inside, which reduces time and reduces the risk of causing damage during transport.
This unique feature makes tunnel containers adaptable and flexible. They can be used for a broad range of storage and transport requirements, such as being transformed into living spaces or mobile offices. These containers are constructed of tough, corrosion-resistant Corten steel and are able to stand up to the most severe weather conditions.
If you're seeking a more secure alternative, we can join in steel bulkheads on one of the long sides of the container, resulting in two separate storage compartments of 10 feet. Self-storage companies can use bulkheads to separate customers' belongings in different areas, increasing security. Our double-end door containers are very popular at large events as ticket entry points because they can hold large crowds and keep them dry.
Our 20ft double-door tunnel containers come with fork pockets suitable for large industrial forklifts, which means they can be easily stacked and lifted from the corners of both long sides. We've also added PIR insulation and heaters to these units, making them suitable for storage throughout the year.
We can manufacture tunnel containers in custom sizes to meet your precise requirements if you require an even more customized solution. We can manufacture them in both double-sided and single-sided versions and in a variety of lengths. However a custom-sized tunnel container is more expensive than an ordinary shipping container, so we recommend selecting the one that is closest to your needs.
Temperature-Sensitive Goods
The most dangerous products like explosives, flammable liquids and organic peroxides, must be stored at the right temperature. 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.
Sometimes these fluctuations can be difficult to identify, especially during a hectic workday. Container terminals should have an instrument to monitor the temperature of all reefer containers within their facility. This allows staff to react promptly to any anomalies and avoid any risk.
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 enhances accessibility and expedites loading and unloading processes when warehousing and transportation. They can be used to store large items like vehicles or machinery.
These modified containers are usually constructed from a standard 20ft or 40ft shipping container. The solid end is removed, and new double doors welded in place, allowing two-way access. These modified containers are often used on construction sites where heavy machinery must be able to pass over and under.
Some container terminals also transform their tunnel shipping container s to serve as a secure entry point to the site by installing a turnstile or manual security checkpoint as users go through. Although these conversions aren't readily available in a standard size however, they can be custom-made to suit specific requirements and are highly cost effective as compared to the construction of an entire facility from scratch. Tunnel containers are generally only available in a 'new one-trip' type. This is due to the fact that their owners construct them for a specific purpose and then retain them for a period of time. They are therefore highly sought-after by those who wish to expand their business or warehouse without having to invest in 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
A tunnel container is the ideal container to store your cargo. These containers come with double doors on both ends of the container, in contrast to traditional dry storage containers that have one door at the end. This lets you access your storage container on either side. This makes it easier to unload and load goods.
This dual entry point can be particularly beneficial when storing goods that require regular access, like machinery and equipment. This means that you don't have to constantly reverse vehicles to and from the container, which can cause damage to your vehicle as well as the container.
You can also make use of a tunnel container to store things that you want to keep at a specific temperature. The thermal and refrigerator tunnel containers are perfect for this as they have temperature control that keeps the items inside at a specific temperature.
A tunnel container is a great solution for a workshop or garage. It lets you access all areas of your workspace without the need to move furniture. The dual doors at the ends let you 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 with two sets of double doors, or modified from a standard shipping container. In the latter case the solid part of the container is removed and a set of double doors welded in place at each end of the container.
Containers for shipping are typically only available as new 'one-trip condition', because the owners have constructed them for a particular reason and don't want them to be sold. Some companies still offer renovated tunnel containers. These refurbished containers are tested to ensure they are safe for transportation and are sold with a longer warranty.
Easy Transportation
The double cargo doors at both sides of a tunnel container make it easy to unload and load items from either end. This makes them ideal for transporting all types of general and bulk cargo, including special goods such as motorbikes or cars. These containers are also used as makeshift tunnels at construction sites due their security, durability and the ease of alteration.
Shipping containers with double doors can be great storage. The ability to gain access to both sides of a container will save you time and money, by removing the requirement to remove the entire container or a section to access the items stored at the back. The doors on both sides can also be locked to prevent any unauthorized access.
They're extremely robust, and since they're made from corten steel, they're designed to withstand harsh weather conditions. These containers are water and wind-proof, and feature ventilation to ensure airflow. These features will protect your goods from moisture and minimize the risk of loss or spoilage.
mouse click the up coming post can pick from a range of options for a container tunnel depending on your needs. Open top containers, for example they have bow-tops that can be removed to allow loading of large and heavy cargo more convenient. Side-open containers come with doors that are set on the side of the container making them ideal for the storage of smaller goods. 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 versions in sizes 20ft and fortyft with doors at both ends to make it easy loading. These containers can be customized to meet your specific needs however, they will cost more than a standard double-end door container.
