40ft Roller Shutter Shipping Containers
Our 40ft roller shutter shipping containers are one of our most popular and versatile container options, ideal for commercial storage, workshops, and logistics operations.
Twin Roller Shutter Configuration
Our most commonly supplied 40ft container features two 17ft electric roller shutters fitted along the side. This layout provides excellent access and makes loading and unloading quick and efficient.
These containers are particularly popular with businesses that:
-
Use forklifts or pallet trucks
-
Require wide access for bulky goods
-
Need a practical on-site workshop or secure storage unit
The twin shutter design allows goods to be accessed from multiple points, improving workflow and saving time on busy sites.
Central Roller Shutter Option
Another popular configuration is our 40ft container with a single central roller shutter. This option is ideal where space is limited or where a more compact access point is preferred, while still benefiting from the strength and security of a full-size shipping container.
All of our 40ft roller shutter containers are:
-
Fully refurbished or converted in-house
-
Built with heavy-duty steel construction
-
Designed for security, durability, and daily commercial use
Whether you need a workshop, warehouse-style storage, or forklift-friendly access, our 40ft roller shutter containers offer a reliable and cost-effective solution
