Tunnel Shipping Container
Also called double door shipping containers, tunnel containers have the cargo doors on both ends. This is why they are ideal for larger items.
The 2013 KOBE Biennale saw designers Masakazu Shirane and Saya Miyazaki design an ethereal container tunnel . It is the first example of Zipper Architecture, where the surfaces open and close like windows.
Easy loading and unloading
Whether you're transporting products or simply using a shipping container to store your items It is crucial to ensure that your cargo is properly secured. In the absence of proper security, you could cause damage to your possessions and the possibility of your shipment falling in transit. Use load securing materials to secure your items in place to avoid these problems. This includes straps, load bars for plywood bracing and dunnage bags.
There are many kinds of shipping containers available on the market, tunnel containers are especially useful for transportation and storage because they provide easy access to the items inside. These containers have double doors at both sides, making it easy to load and unload items. This makes them a great option for loading vehicles such as snowmobiles and motorbikes.
Tunnel containers are also used for storage of items like heavy equipment and machinery. Dual entry points make it easier to move heavy equipment into and out of a container without the need to reverse your vehicle or tractor. They are also great for onsite storage, as they can be altered to include an opening in the middle.
In addition to having two standard double doors on both the end walls, tunnel containers have an extra door in the side (long) wall. This gives them the same accessibility as open-side storage containers but at a cost that is lower.
Tunnel containers can also come with side windows and lighting. This allows them to serve as a storage area or office. This type of modification is very cost-effective particularly if you have to store a significant amount of equipment.
Tunnel shipping containers can also be fitted with a refrigeration system, which is an effective way to preserve temperature-sensitive goods. They are also referred to as refrigerated ISO containers or reefer containers. They can be used in a variety of applications that include cold storage and food distribution.
Enhanced Security
When it comes to the storage of sensitive or expensive items security is of paramount importance. Shipping containers are designed to be highly secure, however there are additional features that can improve security. Modification options include steel window bars as well as alarm systems. These can be placed both inside and outside the container making it difficult for anyone who is not authorized to gain access.
A tunnel container may be fitted with an additional high-security lock. The lock locks the door and blocks unauthorised access. A locking box can be used to protect the lock, increasing security by making it impossible for tampering to occur. A crossbar lock system may be added to the lock, which extends across the doors of the container and makes it more difficult to pry them open.
Shipping container tunnels are extremely adaptable and can be altered to satisfy a variety of requirements. They can be used as workshops or offices and create a safe and secure environment for workers in volatile situations. Furthermore they can be modified to accommodate a wide range of equipment and machinery. They can also be fitted with a ventilation system as well as fork pockets, which allows them to be easily moved on industrial forklifts that are large in size.
In contrast to traditional ISO shipping containers, which have doors at one end, tunnel containers have double cargo doors on both ends. This allows for quick and efficient access, which is essential when storing heavy vehicles and other equipment. These features make the tunnel shipping container the ideal solution for any application that requires the highest level of flexibility and efficiency.
These units were previously used as ballistic shelters for workers who worked in hostile environments. In particular, they were shipped to Erbil in Iraq where the threat of terrorist attacks was a daily reality. In collaboration with local engineers the ballistic shipping containers offered workers an area of safety that was easily accessible from their workplaces. They also provided rapid access to emergency supplies. The specialized ballistic shipping containers were made from high-quality Corten steel, which is known for its outstanding durability.
Versatility
A tunnel shipping container is a specialized container that has double cargo doors on both sides of the container. These containers are also known as tunnel boxes with double doors. They allow easy access to the inside of the container from either side. This increases their versatility and their usability. These storage units can be constructed from scratch and used as tunnels or modified from one-trip containers that are standard. The solid part of a conventional container is removed and new double doors are put in place, allowing two-way access to interior.
Tunnel containers are extremely popular for storage of large machinery or equipment. You can load and unload heavy equipment quickly, without needing reverse your vehicle or risking losing cargo. Dual-end doors allow you to easily rotate your stored items. This is crucial for high-frequency applications, such as construction or steel.
Apart from being extremely versatile tunnel containers are extremely cost-effective. They're often less expensive than traditional storage options and they're perfect for intermodal transport because they can be transported by flatbed trucks or trains. They can also be fitted with advanced security ventilation systems or systems for ventilation, according to your requirements.
Security is also enhanced due to the dual-end doors on the tunnel container. They make it easier to check your stored items from both sides, which can significantly reduce the risk of theft and loss. This feature is especially useful when it comes to storing expensive equipment or materials.
Apart from being highly efficient, tunnel shipping containers are also extremely durable and long-lasting. They are made of corten steel, which is one of the strongest metals found on earth. These steel-framed containers are built to withstand the rigors of ocean travel and the rigors of years of usage.
A tunnel container is a great solution for secure storage at home or in your business. They're not only cost-effective and durable and durable, but they're also flexible enough to be transformed into a relaxing living space or a cozy office space. These shipping containers are sleek and modern, and will enhance the appeal of any home or business.
Cost-Effectiveness
Tunnel containers offer several advantages over conventional shipping options that could save companies money. One major advantage is that they don't need the use of cranes. This is a significant savings for companies that need to rent cranes on an ongoing basis for loading and unloading cargo. They can also be stacked higher than conventional shipping containers. This helps to save space in storage yards and lowers shipping costs. They are also a great option for businesses that require storage or transportation of large machines.
Contrary to traditional shipping containers, the tunnel container has double doors at both ends. This makes it easier to get items into storage compared to containers that have only one door. It also aids in speeding the handling of containers and increase efficiency at the port. This can help to reduce delays and other costs associated with container handling on ships.
Tunnel containers are also a good choice for transporting equipment and machinery. Our customers have used them to transport everything from generators and water treatment plants to awnings and tents for road shows. The double-end entry permits quicker and easier loading of equipment and other supplies.
The units are available in a brand new "one trip" condition and can be customised for various applications. You could, for instance, convert the tunnel container into a mobile security office equipped with a turnstile and manual entry checkpoint. You could also use them as food and retail stalls at events or markets.
Tunnel containers are also a great solution to store plant equipment and provide safe, easy access for employees. We have even seen them converted into offices, which is an economical way for companies to house their employees on the job. They can be easily transported from one location to the next, saving time and money in the process of setting up. Additionally they can be equipped with a retractable roof that can protect against the weather conditions.
