Tunnel Containers

The key feature of tunnel containers, as the name implies, is the dual doors at the two ends of the container. This significantly improves accessibility, making them ideal for storage and goods handling.

They are also popular for converting into self storage units as you can divide them by putting up an enclosure wall. We have also helped customers use them to house plant machinery and provide secure access to the site with turnstiles.

Dual Access

Tunnel containers are an altered version of a standard shipping container with double doors at both ends. These containers are also known as a "double door end container" or a "tunnel-shaped container". They provide access to the stored items at both ends.

The dual-end access permits cargo to be loaded and unloaded from both sides of the container. This is ideal for transporting heavier or bulkier items that would otherwise need to be backed into and out of the container. The double-end access also eliminates the need to unload the entire container in order to access the goods that are stored within, which can be time-saving and decreases the chance of causing damage during transportation.

This unique feature is what makes tunnel containers so versatile and flexible. They can be used for a broad range of storage and transport needs, including being converted into living spaces or mobile offices. These containers are made of rugged, corrosion resistant Corten steel that can 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 10ft. Self-storage companies can use bulkheads to separate customers' belongings into different areas, thereby increasing security. Our double-end door containers are popular for use at large events as ticket entry points because they can handle large crowds and keep them dry.

Our new 20ft tunnel containers double door tunnel containers have fork pockets that are suitable for industrial forklifts. This means they are able to be stackable or lifted from the corners of each side. These containers are also outfitted with heaters and PIR insulation which makes them ideal for year-round storage.

We can manufacture tunnel containers in custom sizes to meet your exact specifications if you require an additional bespoke solution. We can produce them in both single- and double-sided variants and also in various lengths. Custom-sized tunnel containers are more expensive than standard shipping containers, so we recommend choosing the closest size that is suitable for your needs.

Temperature-Sensitive Goods

The most dangerous products including explosives, flammable liquids and organic peroxides require storage at optimal temperatures. Temperature fluctuations can lead to many problems, including a fire 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 spot, particularly during a hectic workday. This is why it's crucial that container terminals utilize an instrument that provides real-time temperature monitoring across all reefer containers in their facility. This allows personnel the ability to respond quickly in the event of any issues and also to 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 which makes it easier to load and unload during transport and storage. They can also be used to store bulky objects, such as vehicles and machinery.

These modified containers are usually constructed from the standard 20 or 40 foot shipping container. The solid end is removed, and the double doors is welded into place, allowing two-way access. They are often used on construction sites where it is necessary to move through and under heavy machinery.

Some container terminals even convert their tunnel shipping containers to serve as a secure entrance to the site by installing a turnstile or an automated security checkpoint when visitors pass through. These conversions, not available in standard sizes, can be customized to meet specific requirements. They are also more affordable than building an entire facility. 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 use and then retain them. They are sought-after by those who want to expand their business or warehouse without having to invest in 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

Tunnel containers are an excellent option for storing your cargo. The containers are double doors on both sides of the container, which is different from traditional dry storage containers that have one door at the end. This means you can enter the storage container from both sides which allows for more convenient access and faster loading and unloading of goods.

This dual entry point is particularly beneficial for a container which is intended to store items you need frequent access to equipment or machinery equipment. This means that you don't have to reverse your vehicle into and out of the storage container continuously which could cause damage to the container and your vehicle.

You can also store your goods in a tunnel container when you want to keep an appropriate temperature. The refrigerator and thermal tunnel containers are ideal for this since they have temperature control that will keep the goods inside at a certain temperature.

In addition to offering an easy access, a tunnel container is an ideal solution for garages or workshops as it permits you to access all areas of your workspace without having to move things around. The dual doors at each end mean that you can access and exit the storage container quickly should you need to.

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 case the solid end is removed from the container, and a pair of double doors are joined to the other end.

The shipping containers are generally only available in brand new one-trip condition, as their owners have designed them for a specific purpose and will not wish to sell them on. However, you can still purchase refurbished 20ft tunnel containers containers from some companies that provide this particular type of container. The recycled containers have been checked to ensure they're safe for transport and are sold with an extended warranty for additional security.

Easy Transportation

Double cargo doors at both ends of the tunnel container make it easy to load and unload items from either end. This makes them ideal for the transportation of all kinds of bulk and general cargo, as well as special items such as motorbikes or cars. These containers are also often used as tunnels for temporary use at construction sites due their durability, safety, and ease of modification.

Shipping Containers with double doors are extremely useful for storage. The ability to gain access to both sides of a container can save you time and money by eliminating the requirement to remove the entire container or section to reach the items that are stored in the back. The doors at both ends can also be locked to prevent any unauthorized access.

These containers are made of corten steel and are designed to withstand tough conditions. These containers are water- and wind-proof and feature ventilation to ensure that airflow is maintained. These features will safeguard your goods from moisture and decrease the risk of loss or spoilage.

You can choose a variety of options for a container tunnel based on your requirements. For instance open top containers feature a bow-top that is removable, which allows for the easier loading of large and heavy cargo. Side-open containers have doors that are set on the side of the container which makes them ideal for storage of smaller goods. A refrigerated ISO container, or reefer, has a regulated temperature and can be used to store temperature-sensitive goods.

They are available in new and refurbished options in sizes of 20 and 40 ft tunnel container feet with doors on both ends to make loading easy. They can also be sized to suit your unique needs, but this will be more expensive than a standard double-end door container.
