Not everyone can use standard shipping containers with doors only on one end for storage and shipping needs; Giant Lock Box has double-door shipping containers for sale for our customers who need to access their containers from both ends. These specialty double-door units are also known as Tunnel Containers due to their unique double-door frames and tunnel-like look. We offer a variety of lengths, heights, and configurations of double-door units.
With the shipping lines building containers for their fleets with doors only on one end, there are no sources for used containers with doors on both ends. For customers that need to access their container from both ends, we recommend purchasing new double-door units instead of modifying a used container and adding an additional roll-up door. Modified used containers with an added roll-up door would be similar in cost to a new double-door storage container but lack the features of these new double-door containers with lock-boxes, easy open-door handles, new paint, and forklift pockets to allow for easy moving of the containers.
The most common and largest of the double door units, Giant Lock Box, has 40' High-Cube Double Door Shipping Containers for Sale for our customers that need the additional height of a high-cube (9'6" tall) and to access their unit from both ends of the container. These 40HCDD units are commonly used for machinery storage for easy loading and unloading and for divided-use storage/office containers at construction sites.
