20ft Storage Side Opening Doors Shipping Container: Nationwide Delivery

This 20ft shipping container comes with side opening doors that improve accessibility for storage and logistics work. Made from weathering steel (Corten steel), it is built to endure varied environmental conditions while keeping its structural integrity. It works well for on-site storage, material handling, and intermodal transport, is delivered nationwide, and is offered as a brand-new unit.

Key Features

• Side Door Configuration: A full-length side door opening adds to the standard end doors, allowing unobstructed access from multiple sides.
• Improved Cargo Handling: The side doors make loading and unloading of palletized goods, machinery, or oversized items easier with forklifts or pallet trucks.
• Durable Construction: Corten steel provides corrosion resistance and structural durability in outdoor storage settings.
• Secure Locking Mechanism: Lockable door rods and protective lock boxes help prevent unauthorized access.
• Ventilation: Integrated passive ventilation grilles help reduce condensation and promote airflow inside.
• Intermodal Compatibility: Manufactured to ISO standards, making it suitable for transport by road, rail, or sea.

The 20ft side opening container is a specialized take on the standard dry van shipping container. Instead of rear-end access only, this model adds a full-length door system along one side. That feature greatly increases operational flexibility for users who need frequent access to stored goods or have to load materials too wide for standard rear doors.

The frame and panels are fabricated from high-tensile steel treated to resist weathering. The flooring is marine-grade plywood, treated to take heavy point loads from industrial equipment. The side doors swing fully open to form a wide aperture that maximizes the usable interior width. This setup is especially handy for warehousing, retail storage, construction site material containment, and agricultural supply storage, letting items go deep inside the container without unloading front goods to reach rear items.

Note: Specifications are based on ISO standards. Actual dimensions may vary slightly by manufacturer.
