Shipping containers only come with one door option: cargo doors. Cargo doors open one end of a shipping container to create easy access to cargo held inside the container. Although many people find cargo doors helpful, some people want different door options to make the most of repurposed containers—think personnel doors, double doors, and so on. Today we’re going to focus on one type of door option: shipping containers with roll-up doors.
Many people find roll-up doors beneficial because they provide easy access to large items such as lawn equipment and sports equipment. Cargo doors can also provide easy access to large items, but they can be a hassle to open and close multiple times a day.
One of the great things about modified containers is that you can request a roll-up door on any wall of the container. You can replace the cargo door or even install two roll-up doors on the long side of a 40-foot unit. It’s all about what works best for you.
The benefits of roll-up doors:
Roll-up doors are versatile, but that doesn’t mean every application requires a roll-up door. Here are a few application examples of when storage containers with roll-up doors make an impact.
Other applications that don’t solely focus on storage include:
