Shipping Container Tunnel

Shipping container tunnels, also referred to as double-end doors, are standard double-doors on both ends of the container. When opened they form tunnels. This facilitates easy access and greatly enhances the convenience of loading and unloading cargo.

Tunnel containers are available in a new "one-trip" condition and are suitable for a wide variety of storage and conversion projects. Many customers utilize tunnel containers to create small storage units for secure storage - simply by dividing them down the middle.

Easy Access

With two standard double doors at both ends tunnel shipping containers give an easier access to stored items than a normal container with just one set of doors. Self-storage companies appreciate them due to the fact that they can be used to create storage spaces for various objects. For example boxes and tools are kept in one place while furniture and other equipment is kept in the other.

Tunnel containers are also great for companies that require storage or transport of large or bulky items e.g. automobile dealerships, construction firms and manufacturing companies. Due to their dual entry points tunnel containers are able to be loaded and unloaded more quickly than conventional containers. This improves productivity, decreases costs and prevents costly delays.

Dual access points make tunnel containers extremely convenient for loading and removing massive items that are too large to fit in one door. furniture, heavy machinery and vehicles. They can accommodate hand dollys and forklift ramps which are extremely useful when working in a busy environment.

Tunnel containers are weatherproof steel and can be used outdoors in a variety of different places.

Two tunnel containers set from side-to-side can keep dozens of people safe from the elements whilst they wait to be scanned or checked for entry.

Recently, we converted two tunnel containers into a cozy gift shop to a railway heritage site. Using PIR insulation and heaters, the shipping container tunnel was equipped with lighting and double sockets for all-year-round use. The customers were so thrilled with the results that they have since ordered another container from us to create an even larger and more attractive shop!

Tunnel containers are ideal for self-storage units due to their dual entry points. A shipping container can be divided into two distinct storage areas of 10ft by creating an internal partition. This is ideal for businesses that need to rotate their stock without the hassle of unloading from both ends. Tunnel containers are also utilized by many of our clients as 'passages' at music events and festivals which help to direct crowds through a specific gap or area.

It's also an ideal idea to put heavier items at the lower part of the container and lighter ones at the top. Keep flammables away from other objects, and also anything that may be contaminated by liquids.

Double doors at each end of a container tunnel make it easier to access items located in the middle, where the standard shipping container might be difficult to access. Tunnel containers are perfect to store personal and business inventory. They are also used by many self-storage companies that divide the containers in half to create two smaller stores, which gives easy access from both sides (where conventional containers could only have one entry point).

Tunnel containers can be modified just as easily as any type of shipping container. This means you can add lighting and even windows, depending on your requirements. They can be transformed into office, retail or workshops.
