Double-Ended Door Container Dimensions
SEA Containers specialises in providing a diverse range of shipping container options, including those with double doors. These double door containers, also known as tunnel containers, feature doors on both the front and rear ends. They are designed for superior accessibility and efficiency in loading and unloading. This article will explore the benefits of double door tunnel containers.
Advantages of double-ended doors
Enhanced accessibility: Double door shipping containers are more accessible from both end walls, eliminating the challenges of moving cargo in tight spaces. Their double doors make loading and unloading smaller items easier and facilitate using a forklift for heavier loads.
Improved space utilisation: Tunnel container design maximises space usage, which is especially beneficial when transporting or storing large quantities of goods. The doors on the open ends make the unit easier to partition; it’s simple to manage the use of its open room from the front and rear ends.
Flexibility: The double door shipping container is versatile and suitable for a wide range of uses. For example, they can be used in loading and transporting materials or creating temporary workspaces, making these double door containers highly adaptable.
