A GUIDE TO CHOOSING SHIPPING CONTAINER DOORS
News and PR from Containers Direct - Published 12 May 2015
Yes, there is more to shipping containers than a uniform metal box - especially once it moves into the job of providing storage or accommodation for business use
While cargo doors (the original doors manufactured for all shipping containers) are a necessary requirement for shipping, and indeed meet the needs of the job perfectly, they don't always provide the best option for other uses the container will frequently go on to. We now offer five distinct door styles for shipping container products. Read on to demystify the confusion over the number of different door types you will find on containers, what they are for and how to make an informed choice when choosing the right one for you.
When browsing our products you may find the container you want already has the right door for your requirements. If not then we have our own on site workshops which specialise in fabricating and fitting new doors, so all you need to do is specify the doors you require - to make this straightforward we have classified our doors into five types:
* S1 doors - Flat steel panels, lightweight to open and close single locking bar
* S2 doors - Original shipping container cargo doors, thick corrugated steel, rubber sealed, two locking bars
* S3 doors - Flat steel panels, lightweight to open and close, double locking arms, rubber seal (unique to Containers Direct)
* S4 doors - ROLLER SHUTTERS - open upwards, fully welded galvanised steel, padlockable both ends
* S5 doors - PERSONNEL DOORS - front door style and size, steel, multi deadlocks, rubber sealed, thermal insulated
