40ft Tunnel Container – Fully Shelved Mobile Workshop

$8,500.00

Product Overview

This 40ft tunnel container is configured as a mobile workshop, providing a durable and secure workspace. It is constructed from high-grade Corten steel and features dual-access double doors at both ends, allowing for drive-through capability and efficient workflow management. The interior is fitted with integrated heavy-duty shelving, offering immediate storage solutions for tools, equipment, and materials in a variety of industrial and commercial settings.

Key Features

  • Dual-End Access: Double doors on both ends facilitate drive-through access and natural ventilation, improving workflow efficiency.

  • Integrated Shelving System: The container includes factory-installed steel shelving units along the walls, providing organized storage without the need for separate installation.

  • High-Security Lockboxes: Exterior lockboxes protect padlocks from bolt cutters and tampering, enhancing security for stored contents.

  • Ventilation: Passive ventilation units are integrated into the design to reduce condensation and improve airflow within the space.

  • Durable Flooring: Features a marine-grade plywood floor capable of supporting heavy loads and resisting wear from foot traffic and equipment.

  • Corner Castings: Standard ISO corner castings allow for secure transportation, stacking, and handling by crane or forklift.

Detailed Description

This 40ft tunnel container is engineered to function as a robust, mobile workshop for professionals requiring a secure and organized space. Unlike standard storage units, the tunnel configuration—with doors at both ends—allows for a continuous path through the container. This design is particularly useful for sites where equipment needs to be moved through the space or when natural cross-ventilation is required.

Constructed from 14-gauge Corten steel, the structure is designed to withstand harsh weather conditions and resist corrosion. The steel framing provides rigidity, ensuring the container maintains its structural integrity even when transported or stacked.

The interior is fitted with a series of steel shelves integrated directly into the container walls. These units offer ample space for sorting parts, storing power tools, and organizing supplies. By having shelving built-in, users can begin work immediately upon delivery without the additional labor of fitting out the interior.

Security is addressed through the use of welded steel hasps and protective lockboxes. These components are designed to shield external padlocks from forced entry attempts. The double doors are fitted with heavy-duty hinges and can be secured from the inside for added safety during occupancy.

This container is delivered ready for placement on a level, prepared surface. It serves as a turnkey solution for converting a standard shipping container into an operational environment, removing the complexity of custom fabrication.
