Overview
Make stored goods easier to reach with a 20ft container converted for electric side access. Instead of relying solely on end access, the motorized roll-up shutter opens the side for loading, retrieval, and equipment maintenance. A remote handset operates the shutter without manual lifting.
This conversion uses a new, one-trip base container. The side-opening conversion suits businesses handling bulky inventory or accessing stored equipment frequently.

Materials & Build Quality
The shell uses weather-resistant Corten steel, with treated marine-grade plywood flooring inside. A supporting framework surrounds the converted opening and carries the electrically operated, insulated roller shutter.
Internal locking bars provide points for padlocks when the shutter is closed. The exterior is dark gray. The final finish, clear opening, and electrical configuration are confirmed in your written quote.
