Detailed Description
The 20FT X 8FT shipping container is a robust, steel unit originally manufactured for freight transport and repurposed for secure site accommodation. Its primary function is to provide a durable, lockable space that can be adapted to various operational needs.
The container’s structure is formed from corrugated, heavy-gauge steel panels welded to a strong steel frame, creating a rigid and stackable unit.
As an anti-vandal unit, this container is specified with reinforced door hinges and heavy-duty lock boxes to protect the contents and interior fit-out from theft or damage. The steel construction itself acts as a significant deterrent to forced entry.
When used as a site office or canteen, the interior can be fitted with insulation, electrical wiring, and joinery to create a functional workspace .
When intended for use as a toilet block, the steel shell provides a durable structure within which plumbing and sanitaryware can be installed, protected from the elements and potential damage.
The exterior is typically finished with a corrosion-resistant primer and paint system.
The double doors at one end allow for wide access, which is useful for moving equipment in and out or for installing larger internal fit-outs.
Forklift pockets along the base facilitate easy loading, unloading, and repositioning on site.
