We also added lighting, double sockets and a 16A power supply.
Tunnel containers are now the ideal space to keep their valuable equipment safely stored away from the public, while providing their employees with easy access for maintenance and repairs. The units are located on an elevated platform to prevent flooding and to shield the contents from inclement weather.
We can install manual or electric rollers on the side to create a secure entry point for customers who have an ongoing need for a tunnel container. This is ideal for sites that require security checks to be carried out when people enter and leave the area.

Simple Stuffing and De Stuffing
Stuffing and de-stuffing shipping containers is a significant operation. It requires planning, warehouse workers, and the right equipment to complete the task quickly and efficiently. It also requires a considerable amount of space in the packing facility as well as the warehouse that receives a container.
The most important factor when packing the container is to make sure that all the items you need can fit comfortably inside the container. This will lessen the damage your cargo may suffer from shifting or compression during transport. It is important to leave enough space for handling and inspecting your cargo. The container must be examined to see that the seal is still intact and that all doors are shut.
Another benefit of a tunnel container is that it permits you to access your goods from both ends. This is important since it saves time and makes it easier to move your items in and out of the container. This feature is especially useful when you're using the container for an open-air storefront or for security purposes.

This is a cost-effective option compared to buying two standard containers. This is also ideal for self-storage businesses who wish to offer their clients access to their sites in a more efficient manner.
These specialized containers are also a great solution for construction sites. They can be converted to provide a safe passage through a construction site with both sides of the container accessible and lockable. This allows workers to easily move through the tunnel, while keeping any unwanted traffic out.
You can also convert a tunnel container to security reasons, by installing a turnstile or manual secure entry checkpoints when users go through the container. Tunnel containers can be purchased new from manufacturers, or second-hand and adapted to a specific usage, like retail or site housing.
