Tunnel Container Uses

The tunnel container is called a double-door shipping container. They are the same dimensions of the standard ISO containers, but they open at both ends. This allows access to cargo easily and is an excellent feature if you are using the container for storage or conversion projects.

Transport

A tunnel container can be used for many different purposes. Dual entry points make it simple to access equipment and other materials at either end. This makes it easier to transport palletised loads with forklifts, and it makes it easier to manage stock flow. Tunnel containers are often used as temporary bridges at construction sites, or as ticket entry points for festivals and other events.

They also make a great solution for self-storage. By erection of the bulkhead partition made of steel, a 20ft tunnel containers tunnel can be transformed into two 10ft units, maximizing return on investment. Tunnel containers can be modified in various ways, including lighting inside, as well as side windows - making them even more convenient for companies.

The double doors at both sides of the container also make it ideal for storing bulky or larger items. This is especially useful in warehouses, as it can be difficult to access large machines and vehicles in standard shipping containers. You can save time by not having to continually move the container.

Tunnel containers can be fitted with heating and cooling units that allow them to be used for temperature-controlled storage for goods such foods, chemicals and pharmaceuticals. They can also be equipped with ventilation systems to prevent condensation of the merchandise.

tunnel shipping containers containers are available in 20ft tunnel containers or 40ft sizes, similar to standard shipping containers. They are compliant with ISO shipping standards, are CSC plated for international freight and can be made weatherproof with the addition of insulation.

They can be transported on flat-bed chassis or flat-bed trucks, or mounted on a truck frame or tracks. They are also a great alternative for law enforcement equipment, as they can be easily moved between bases, and could prevent unwanted identification of high-value equipment like command and control centres or mobile operating theatres. They can even be loaded with a range of weapons including missile launchers. The Container City in Cholula, Mexico is an excellent example of how old sea containers can be turned into restaurants, galleries and workshops - and even homes!

Storage

Double end doors containers, also referred to as Tunnel Containers, allow access to the items stored on both sides of the container. This greatly improves the ease of access to load and unloading, and allows full use of the storage space. These units are ideal for self-storage facilities since they allow access to both sides without the need to remove items. This is particularly useful for those storing more bulky, awkward or large objects like machinery or heavy equipment.

The tunnel container's design allows for these units to be converted into offices or secure storage spaces. In contrast to open-sided shipping containers that must be completely unloaded to gain access to the contents, tunnel shipping container containers can simply be opened from either side and the doors locked shut again. This allows them to be used for the construction of on-site offices, or even housing if required.

These shipping containers can be used to store specific items. Military units can use them to transport expensive systems to temporary locations like command and control centres or mobile operating theaters, which eliminates the need to move these systems by vehicle.

This method can also be used to transport special industrial equipment like generators or turbines. This enables rapid deployment of critical infrastructure in areas where it is required, greatly reducing the time and cost associated with installing fixed infrastructure.

These units can be equipped with the ability to control temperature and an insulation for thermal purposes if you are shipping a risky cargo, like biological or chemical substances. This allows them to maintain a constant low temperature and prevents any spoilage during transit.

These units are able to be fitted with tarp covers that can be removed, which provide extra flexibility when loading and unloading. This allows heavy or bulky goods to be transported that otherwise would not fit in standard shipping containers, such as timber, construction materials or large machinery. These containers can be outfitted with lockboxes with high security to stop access from the top.

Stuffing & De Stuffing

When it comes to shipping and storage, logistics professionals use various terms to describe the methods by which cargo is readied to be transported and moved through the supply chain. These terms include container stuffing and de-stuffing. These terms refer to the process by which goods are taken out of or loaded into containers for shipping. Understanding these concepts is crucial to the success of any company that utilizes shipping containers to store or distribute goods.

Stuffing a container tunnel involves carefully placing the cargo in order to maximize space and meet specific logistic requirements. Depending on the nature the cargo specific packing techniques and loading methods are required to avoid damage during transit. It is important to place the heaviest cargo on the bottom and place lighter items on top. Additionally it is essential to employ the appropriate security measures to stop cargo from shifting during transit. Optimizing the load in the container can help reduce handling, shipping and labour costs and ensures compliance with the regulations to ensure safe transportation.

Unloading or de-stuffing of containers is a crucial step to ensure the effectiveness of your supply chain. This process involves removing any excess cargo from a container. It also requires a careful examination for any signs of physical or water damage that could compromise the integrity of the cargo. Compliance with regulations and effective communication between the logistics provider and the shipper are crucial to a successful de-stuffing procedure.

Refurbished tunnel containers are an affordable solution for businesses that require an unsecure and secure entry point to their premises. These containers can be transformed to a turnstile or a manual entry checkpoint to block access to restricted areas of the facility. These containers are popular for temporary bridges and as ticket entrances for large events.

Tunnel containers aren't the most sought-after type of shipping container but they're becoming more popular for multimodal logistics. They're perfect for shipping and storing, as their double-ended doors allow access from either side. Self-storage is a popular choice for companies that want to have dual access to their inventory. Portable Space can weld steel bulkhead partitions inside the 20-foot container to create two separate 10ft storage compartments. This is much cheaper than purchasing new storage containers.

Security

Tunneling is a method to establish direct point-topoint connections across a network. It encapsulates packets using one routing protocol in conjunction with other protocols so that routers at both ends of the tunnel can directly connect with each other.

This permits different applications to share an infrastructure. For instance, a business can have tunnels for public internet and internal resources. This can help them maintain consistent security policies for all employees and customers. The company can safeguard sensitive data from being stolen by using tunnels.

Container cargo loads even though they're made of steel, are susceptible to theft. The methods of thieves have changed and they're capable of breaking into a steel container by removing the doors or hinges. It is therefore essential that businesses take measures to stop their containers from being taken.

One method to accomplish this is to install a lockbox on the doors. They are steel shrouds that are welded that fit around the lug that holds the padlock to the doors of the container, and they make it extremely difficult to gain access to the padlock area with bolt cutters. Businesses can also install an alarm with high security that will alert the company if someone attempts to cut through the lockbox.

Another method of increasing the security of 40 ft tunnel containers containers is to set up a turnstile or a manual secure entry checkpoint. This is particularly useful when there is a large number of people attending the event. This can be used to shield guests from the wind and rain, while allowing security to conduct checks at the location.

Shipping containers are available in different sizes and conditions. This allows businesses to select the right one to meet their needs. For instance, some are made for bulky items like vehicles and machinery. Some containers have doors at both ends to make loading and unloading easier. And, there are even refrigerated containers that can be used to transport fresh food.
