Tunnel Containers
As the name implies the most important feature of a tunnel containers is the dual door design at each end of the container. This significantly improves accessibility and makes them ideal for storage and handling of items.
They can also be converted into self-storage units by incorporating an enclosure. We have assisted customers to utilize them to store plant machinery and for secure access to sites using turnstiles.
Dual Access
Tunnel containers are an altered version of the standard shipping container that has double doors at both ends. These containers are also known as a "double end door container" or a "tunnel-shaped container". They permit access to the items stored on both ends.
The dual-end access allows cargo to be loaded and unloaded from both sides of the container. This is ideal when you're moving bulkier or larger items that otherwise would need to be backed into and out of the container. Double-end access eliminates the requirement to empty the entire container in order to get the goods that are hidden inside, which saves time and reducing the risk of damage.
container tunnel projects COG Containers is what makes tunnel containers so flexible and versatile. They can be used to fulfill a variety of storage and transport needs and can also be converted into mobile offices or living spaces. They're also made of rugged and corrosion-resistant Corten steel These containers are able to endure even the harshest weather conditions.
If you're looking for a safer option, we can weld in steel bulkheads onto one of the long sides of the container, resulting in two separate storage compartments measuring 10 feet. This makes them ideal for self-storage companies that want to increase security by the items of their customers into individual areas. Our double-end door containers are also popular as ticket entrances at large events, as they are able to easily handle crowds while keeping them dry.
Our new 20ft double-door tunnel containers are fitted with fork pockets that are suitable for large industrial forklifts, which means they can be easily stacked and lifted from the corners of both sides. We've also installed PIR insulation and heaters to these units, making them suitable for storage all year round.
If you're looking for a more bespoke container solution we can also make custom-sized tunnel containers to match your specific requirements. We can manufacture them in both double-sided and single-sided versions and also in various lengths. However a custom-sized tunnel container is more expensive than a standard shipping container, so we suggest selecting the one that is closest to your needs.
Temperature-Sensitive Goods
The most dangerous products like explosives, flammable liquids, and organic peroxides require storage at temperatures that are optimal. 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.
These fluctuations can be difficult to identify, particularly in a busy workday. This is why it's essential that container terminals use systems that provide real-time temperature monitoring for all reefer containers within their facility. This allows staff to react quickly in the event of any abnormalities and prevent any potential risks.
Tunnel containers are a practical option when it comes to transporting and storing temperature-sensitive goods. Double doors are situated at both ends of the container making it easier to load and unload during transportation and storage. They can be used to store large items like vehicles and machinery.
These modified containers are made from standard shipping containers of 20ft or fortyft. The solid end is removed, and a set of double doors is then welded to provide two-way access. They are a popular choice at construction sites, where it is necessary to move over and under heavy machinery.
Some container terminals convert their tunnel shipping containers into secure entrances for their site, installing a turnstile as users pass through. These conversions, which are not available in standard sizes, can be easily modified to meet the specific needs. They are also less expensive than building a complete facility. Tunnel containers are typically only available in a new "one-trip" condition because their owners design them specifically for a particular purpose and then keep them. This makes them a highly sought-after product for those looking to expand their business or storage capacity in warehouses without the need to purchase an entirely 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
If you're looking for storage for your cargo, a tunnel container is a convenient option. These containers come with double doors at both ends of the container, in contrast to conventional dry storage containers, which have a door on one end. This means you can access the storage container from both sides and have easier access and faster loading and unloading of goods.
This dual entry point is especially beneficial for a container which is intended to store items you need frequent access to, such as machinery or equipment. This means that you won't have to constantly reverse vehicles into and out of the container, which could damage both your vehicle and the container.
You can also store your goods in a tunnel container when you want to keep a certain temperature. The refrigerator and thermal tunnel containers are perfect for this since they are temperature controlled and will keep the goods inside at a certain temperature.
In addition to providing easy access, a tunnel container is a perfect solution for a garage or workshop because it allows you to easily access all areas of your workspace without having to move anything around. Dual doors at either end allow you to quickly get into and out of your storage container when needed.
One trip tunnel containers can be built from scratch 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 and a pair of double doors is welded to each end.
Containers for shipping are typically only available as new in a 'one-trip condition' since their owners have built them for a particular purpose and don't want them to be sold. Some companies offer refurbished tunnel containers. These refurbished containers are tested to ensure that they are safe for transportation and can be sold along with a warranty that is extended.
Easy Transportation
Double cargo doors on both sides of the tunnel container make it easy to load and unload goods from either end. They are perfect for transporting bulk and general cargo, as well as more specific items such as automobiles or motorbikes. These containers are often used to construct temporary tunnels on construction sites due to their durability, security, and flexibility in modifying.
Shipping Containers with double doors are ideal for storage. Being able to access both sides of the container means that there is no need to completely unload the goods or remove a section of the container to access the stuff stored in the back, which will save time and money. The doors on both sides can also be locked to prevent unauthorised access.
They're extremely sturdy, and due to being constructed from corten steel, they're built to withstand tough weather conditions. They are wind and watertight, and they have ventilation to allow airflow. These features can protect your items from moisture and reduce the risk of loss or loss or.
Depending on your needs depending on your needs, you can select from several options for a tunnel container. For instance, open top containers have a bow-top that is removable, which allows for easier loading of large and heavy cargo. Side-open containers come with doors that are positioned on the side of the container which makes 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 models in sizes 20ft and fortyft, with doors at both ends for easy loading. These containers can be customized to meet your requirements, but will cost more than a standard double-end door container.
