Our 10ft used shipping container with S3 doors is the sensible choice when the contents need protecting from damp and reaching regularly. The S3 is a flat steel panel door rather than an original cargo door, so it is noticeably lighter to swing, and internal compressed seals are fitted as standard to close off the threshold against moisture. A lock box and a repaint in a standard RAL colour are both included, giving you a tidy, secure store that is ready to work from the day it lands.
Key Features
- S3 steel panel doors with two locking arms, appreciably lighter to operate than a four-arm cargo door
- Internal compressed door seals fitted as standard, guarding paperwork, textiles and furniture against water ingress
- Blends the easy handling of the S1 door with much of the weather sealing of an original S2 cargo door
- Lock box included, shrouding a closed-shackle padlock so it cannot be reached with bolt croppers
- Corten steel shell, the same weathering steel specified across the global container fleet
- Repainted externally in a standard RAL colour before dispatch, adding a fresh protective coat
- Ex-shipping line unit, structurally sound and wind and watertight, with honest cosmetic wear

Ideal For
S3 doors earn their keep wherever the contents are vulnerable to damp and the doors get opened several times a week. Typical uses include office and legal archive storage, school and club equipment, fabric and upholstery stock, seasonal retail overflow, self-storage compounds, and household furniture kept safe during a move or renovation. The neat 10ft length also suits narrow builders’ yards and rear gardens where a longer unit could never be manoeuvred into place.
Delivery Across the UK
Every container leaves our depot on a HIAB-equipped lorry, so it can be lifted over a wall or fence line and set down precisely where you want it, anywhere in the UK. Where access is restricted we can quote for a smaller dedicated vehicle or a tilt-bed delivery instead. Level hardstanding at the drop point makes for a quick, trouble-free offload, and our team will run through the details with you before booking.
