A used 40ft container fitted with manual roller shutter doors gives you an enormous amount of covered, lockable space for a fraction of the cost of a new-build unit. The S4 shutter is galvanised and fully welded, lifting upwards out of the way so forklifts, sack trucks and trolleys can run straight in; the housing and frame are finished to match the container colour. Units are supplied at FG grade, which means an honest ex-shipping line box: structurally sound and watertight, with the dents, scrapes and patch repairs you would expect from a working life at sea.
Key Features
- Manual galvanised roller shutter (S4) – fully welded, upward opening, with electric operation available
- Shutter housing and frame painted to match the container so the conversion looks deliberate, not bolted on
- Clear, unobstructed opening for forklift and pallet work, with no door leaves swinging into the yard
- FG grade used stock – wind and watertight, with cosmetic wear typical of a 10 to 15 year old box
- Corten steel construction that has already proved itself in the harshest marine conditions
- Shutters can also be cut into the long side, and wider openings can be made to order
- Repainting in a standard RAL colour is available and transforms the finished appearance

Delivery Across the UK
Used 40ft containers travel to every part of the UK on crane-equipped transport, with the lift included when we quote your delivery. Because the vehicle is long and heavy when loaded, we ask for hard standing all the way to the drop point and room to drive out head on. Send us a photograph of the access if you are in any doubt and we will advise before despatch.
