Security Features
One of the primary concerns for anyone hiring a shipping container is security. Ensuring that your contents are safe from theft or damage is paramount. Container Options provides several security accessories to give you peace of mind.
Lock Boxes: These are steel boxes welded onto the doors of your container. They house the padlock, making it almost impossible for bolt cutters to access. This simple addition greatly enhances the security of your container.
Padlocks: We offer high-security padlocks that are resistant to cutting, drilling, and picking. These padlocks, especially when used in conjunction with lock boxes, provide a robust security solution.
Security Bars: For containers being used as site offices or workshops, adding security bars to windows is a practical measure. These bars are sturdy and designed to deter any attempts at forced entry.
Environmental Control
Depending on what you’re storing in your container, environmental control might be crucial. Moisture and temperature can affect the condition of your goods, making it important to consider climate control accessories.
Ventilation: Proper ventilation can prevent condensation and mould, which are common issues in sealed containers. We offer various ventilation options, from simple louvre vents to more complex turbine vents that actively circulate air.
Insulation: If you’re using your container as a workspace or storing temperature-sensitive items, insulation is a must. Container Options can insulate your container to ensure a stable internal temperature, keeping your goods in optimal condition.
Air Conditioning and Heating: For more precise climate control, we can install air conditioning or heating units. This is particularly useful for containers converted into living spaces, offices, or workshops.
Internal Fit-Outs
Maximising the internal space of your container is key to its functionality. Whether you’re using it for storage, an office, or a workshop, the right internal fit-out can make all the difference.
Shelving and Racking: These can transform a simple storage container into a well-organised warehouse. We offer a range of shelving and racking systems to suit different needs, allowing you to make the most of the vertical space within your container.
Workbenches: If your container is to be used as a workshop, sturdy workbenches are essential. Container Options can provide custom-built workbenches tailored to your specific requirements.
Lighting: Good lighting is critical, especially if you’ll be spending time inside the container. We offer a range of lighting solutions, from simple battery-operated LED lights to fully wired electrical systems.
Accessibility Enhancements
Ease of access is another important consideration when hiring a shipping container. Depending on how you intend to use the container, there are several accessories that can improve accessibility.
Personnel Doors: Adding a personnel door can make it much easier to enter and exit the container without having to open the main cargo doors. These doors can be fitted with secure locks to ensure safety.
Ramps: If you’ll be moving heavy equipment or vehicles in and out of your container, a ramp is a practical addition. Container Options offers durable, non-slip ramps that can handle heavy loads.
Windows: For containers being used as offices or living spaces, windows can be a great addition. They provide natural light and ventilation, making the interior space more pleasant and habitable.
