Tunnel Containers
Like the name suggests the most important feature of a tunnel containers is the dual-door design on each side of the container. This greatly improves access and makes them ideal for handling and storage of goods.
container tunnel efficiency are also popular for conversion into self-storage units since you can divide them by adding an enclosure wall. We have also assisted customers use them to house plant machinery and provide secure access to the site with turnstiles.
Dual Access
A tunnel container is a modified version of the standard shipping containers that have double doors on both ends. These containers are also known 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 perfect for transporting larger or heavier goods that would need to be backed into and out of the box. The double-end access also makes it unnecessary to unload the entire container to access the goods that are stored within, which saves time and reduces the risk of causing damage during transport.
This clever feature is what makes these tunnel containers so versatile and flexible. They can be used to fulfill a variety of storage and transport requirements and can also be converted into mobile offices or living spaces. These containers are made of tough, corrosion-resistant Corten steel and are able to withstand even the most extreme weather conditions.
If you're looking for security we can weld steel bulkheads onto one of the long sides, creating two storage compartments with a total of 10 feet. This makes them perfect for self-storage businesses that are looking to improve security by the items of their customers into individual areas. Our double end door containers are also popular as ticket entry points at large events, since they can easily handle crowds while keeping them dry.
Our 20ft double door tunnel containers come with fork pockets that can be used with industrial forklifts. This means they can easily be stacked or lifted from the corners of each long side. We've also installed PIR insulation and heaters to these containers which makes them suitable for storage all year round.
We can build tunnel containers with customized sizes to meet your precise requirements if you require an even more customized solution. We can produce them in double-sided and single-sided models and in a variety of lengths. However a custom-sized tunnel container 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 the most dangerous goods such as explosives or liquids that ignite is best stored at temperatures that are optimal. Temperature fluctuations can lead to various issues, including flame 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.
Often, these fluctuations can be difficult to spot, especially during a hectic workday. This is the reason it's vital that container terminals utilize a system that can provide real-time temperature monitoring across all reefer containers within their facility. This enables personnel to respond quickly to any abnormalities and prevent any risks.
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 transportation and storage. They can also be used to store bulky objects such as vehicles and machinery.
These modified containers are made from typical shipping containers of 20 or 40 feet. The solid end is removed and double doors is welded into place to create a two-way entry. They are popular for use at construction sites, where it is necessary to pass over and under heavy machinery.
Some terminals convert their tunnel shipping containers to function as a secure entry point to the site by installing a turnstile or an automated security checkpoint when visitors go through. These conversions, which are not available in standard sizes, can be modified to meet the specific needs. They are also more cost-effective than building an entire facility. Tunnel containers are usually only available in a "one-trip" condition since their owners build them specifically for a specific purpose and then keep them. This makes them a sought after product for those who want to increase their business' or warehouse storage capacity without the need to purchase 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
A tunnel container is an ideal option to store your cargo. They have double doors at both ends, in contrast to a standard dry storage container which only has one door. This means you can access your storage container from either side, allowing for easier access and quicker loading and unloading of items.
This dual entry point is especially beneficial for a container that is used to store goods that you require frequent access to equipment or machinery equipment. This means you won't need to shift your vehicle in and out of the storage container continuously, which could damage both the container and your vehicle.
You can also store your goods in a tunnel container if you require a certain temperature. The thermal and refrigerator tunnel containers are ideal for this, as they have temperature control that will keep the goods inside at a specific temperature.
A tunnel container is a great solution for a garage or workshop. It allows you to reach all parts of your work space without the need to move any furniture. The dual doors at each end allow you to get in and out of the storage container quickly if necessary.
One-trip tunnel containers can be built from new with two sets of double doors or adapted from a conventional shipping container. In the second instance, the solid end is removed from the container. A pair of double doors is attached to each end.
Containers for shipping are typically only available in new 'one-trip condition', because their owners have built them for a specific reason and don't want them to be sold. However, you can still purchase refurbished tunnels from companies that offer this type of container. These refurbished containers have been inspected to ensure they're safe for transport and can be sold with a warranty that is extended for added peace of mind.
Easy Transportation
Double cargo doors at both ends of the tunnel container make it simple to unload and load goods from either end. This makes these containers ideal for carrying all kinds of bulk and general cargo, including specific goods such as motorbikes or cars. These containers are also used as makeshift tunnels on construction sites due to their security, durability and flexibility to modify.
Shipping containers with double doors are great storage. The ability to access both sides of the container means that there is no need to completely unload the goods or take a portion of the container to reach the items stored in the back, which could save time and money. The doors at both ends can also be locked to prevent any unauthorized access.
These containers are very sturdy, and due to being constructed of corten steel they're designed to endure harsh weather conditions. They're water and wind-proof and have ventilation to ensure that there is enough airflow. These features can safeguard your goods from moisture and decrease the risk of loss or spoilage.
Depending on your needs, you can choose from several options for tunnel containers. Open top containers, for example they have bow-tops that can be removed to allow loading of large and heavy cargo simpler. Side-open containers have doors on the sides, which makes them ideal for the storage of small goods. 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 ends to make loading easy. They can also be sized to meet your individual requirements however this will be more expensive than the standard double-end door containers.
