Tunnel Containers

As the name suggests, the key feature of tunnel container is the dual-door design on each side of the container. This significantly enhances access and makes them ideal for handling and storage of items.

They are also popular for converting into self-storage units since you can divide them by putting up walls to divide them. We have also helped customers use them to house plant machinery and provide secure access to their site using turnstiles.

Dual Access

A tunnel container is an altered version of a standard shipping container with double doors at both ends. Known as a 'double end door container' or a 'tunnel container' these containers let you access stored items from both ends.

Dual-end access allows cargo to be unloaded or loaded from either side of the container. This is a great option for transporting heavier or bigger objects that must be removed from and into the box. Double-end access also makes it unnecessary to unload the entire container in order to access the items stored within, which saves time and reduces the risk of causing damage during transportation.

This unique feature makes tunnel containers adaptable and flexible. They can be used to satisfy a variety of transportation and storage needs as well as be transformed into mobile offices or living spaces. These containers are constructed of rugged, corrosion resistant Corten steel that can withstand even the most extreme weather conditions.

If you're seeking a more secure option, we can weld in steel bulkheads on one of the long sides of the container, creating two separate storage compartments measuring 10 feet. This makes them ideal for self storage businesses who wish to enhance security by segregating their customer's items into separate areas. Our double-end door containers are a favorite for large events as ticket entry points because they can handle large crowds and keep them dry.

Our 20ft double-door tunnel containers have fork pockets that are suitable for industrial forklifts. This means they can be easily stacked or lifted from the corners of each side. We've also fitted PIR insulation and heaters to these units, making them suitable for storage throughout the year.

If you're after a more custom-designed container, we can also manufacture tunnel containers that are custom-sized to exactly meet your requirements. We can produce them in single- or double-sided models, as well as different lengths. Custom-sized tunnel containers are more expensive than regular shipping container tunnel containers, so we recommend choosing the closest size that will meet your needs.

Temperature-Sensitive Goods

The storage of most dangerous products like explosives or flammable liquids is best stored at temperatures that are optimal. Temperature fluctuations can trigger a variety of issues, including 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, these fluctuations can be difficult to identify, especially during the midst of a busy workday. Container terminals must use an instrument to monitor the temperature of all reefer containers within their facility. This gives personnel the ability to react quickly in case of any issues and also to prevent any risks that could arise.

Tunnel containers are a practical option when it comes to transporting and storing temperature-sensitive goods. Double doors are found at both ends of the container, which makes it easier to load and unload during transport and storage. They can also be used to store bulky items, such as vehicles and machinery.

The modified containers are typically made from the standard 20 ft tunnel container or 40 ft tunnel container foot shipping container. The solid end is removed, and the double doors is welded into place, allowing two-way access. These modified containers are often employed on construction sites where heavy machinery must be able to pass over and under.

Some container terminals also transform their tunnel shipping containers to be used as a secure entrance to the site with a turnstile, or a manually-operated security checkpoints as visitors go through. These conversions, which aren't available in standard sizes, can be customized to meet the needs of specific customers. They are also more cost-effective than building a whole facility. Tunnel containers are generally only available in a new "one-trip" model because their owners design them specifically for a certain purpose and then keep them. This makes them a highly sought-after product for those wanting to expand their business or storage capacity in warehouses without having to invest in a brand new refrigerated facility. 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 ideal option to store your cargo. These shipping containers feature double doors at both ends, as opposed to a standard dry storage container which only has a single door. This means that you are able to access the storage container from both sides which allows for more convenient access and quicker loading and unloading of goods.

This dual entry point is especially beneficial for storage containers that will be used to store goods that you need frequent access to equipment or machinery equipment. This means that you don't have to constantly reverse vehicles in and out of the container, which can damage both your vehicle and the container.

You can also keep your items in a tunnel container when you require the temperature of a certain level. The refrigerated and thermal tunnel containers are perfect for this since they have temperature controls that ensure the items stored in them are kept at a certain temperature.

A tunnel container is an ideal solution for a workshop or garage. It allows you to access all areas of your workspace without having to move any furniture. The double doors at each end mean that you can move into and out of your storage container quickly, in the event of need.

One trip tunnel containers can be built from scratch using two sets of double doors, or modified from a standard shipping container. In the second instance, the solid end is removed from the container and a pair of double doors are welded to each end.

These containers are usually only available in brand new"one-trip" condition, because their owners will have built them for a specific reason and won't want to sell them on. However, you can buy refurbished tunnel containers from a few companies who offer this specialised container type. These refurbished containers are tested to ensure that they are safe to transport and can be sold along with a warranty that is extended.

Easy Transportation

The double cargo doors on both sides of a tunnel container make it easy to unload and load items from either end. This makes them ideal for the transportation of all kinds of general and bulk cargo, including special goods such as motorbikes or cars. These containers are often used to create temporary tunnels on construction sites due to their durability, safety and ease in modification.

Shipping containers with double doors are excellent storage. The ability to access both sides of the container eliminates the need to completely unload goods or take a portion of the container to access the stuff stored in the back, which will save time and money. Furthermore, the doors at both sides can be locked to prevent unauthorized access.

These containers are made of corten steel and are designed to stand up to harsh conditions. They are wind and watertight, and feature ventilation to ensure that airflow is maintained. These features can protect items from moisture, decreasing the risk of loss and deterioration.

You can pick from a range of options for a container tunnel based on your needs. For example, open top containers have a bow-top that is removable, which allows for the easier loading of large and heavy cargo. Side open containers have doors that are positioned on the sides 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 come in both new and refurbished versions in sizes 20ft tunnel container and fortyft and have doors at both ends to make it easy loading. The containers can be customized to meet your specific needs, but will cost more than a standard double end door container.
