Definition
What is a Double Door container?
La famille Double Porte regroupe les conteneurs équipés de portes à chaque extrémité. Elle facilite les chargements traversants et l’accès à deux zones de stockage.

Cette configuration évite de déplacer toute la marchandise pour atteindre le fond du conteneur. Elle améliore les usages où les entrées et sorties sont fréquentes.
Le choix dépend de la circulation autour du conteneur, de l’organisation du stock et de la fréquence d’ouverture. Les deux côtés doivent rester accessibles sur le site.

In detail
What is a 20ft used Double Door container?
A Double Door container is a container fitted with doors at both ends of the body, not just one. "Used" refers to a reconditioned unit; a body already in service, inspected and checked at the depot before being put back into circulation. The 20ft format is the mid-size format in the range.
Read more
Both ends receive double doors opening at 270°: the container becomes a logistics tunnel, loaded from one side and unloaded from the other. The Corten steel structure, a self-weathering steel that naturally resists marine corrosion, is fully welded. The rubber seals and locking bars are inspected or replaced depending on condition, on both door interfaces.
In the 20ft format, the reconditioned unit offers 33.17 m³ of usable volume for a 28,230 kg payload and 13.87 m² of floor space. It is a proven solution for FIFO cross-docking, first-in first-out flows, and tunnel-mode transit, at an accessible cost compared with the first-trip, i.e. new, model.

Use the internal dimensions to plan the load or equipment layout. Allow the clearances needed for movement, handling and maintenance for your intended use.
Mass and load distribution
Check total mass, point loads, load distribution and handling equipment compatibility. Available volume does not determine permissible load: reference masses are listed in the technical specifications.

The unloading area depends on the vehicle and lifting method. It must be assessed separately from the container’s final position.

Read the dimensions guideLe choix de l’état
Premier voyage ou occasion ?
L’aspect attendu, l’usage et le budget orientent le choix. Demandez les photos et les caractéristiques du conteneur proposé avant de vous décider.
Premier voyage : quel état ?
Un conteneur premier voyage est une unité récemment fabriquée qui a effectué un trajet maritime de positionnement. Son aspect est généralement proche du neuf, mais de petites marques de transport ou de manutention restent possibles.
C’est une option à privilégier pour une installation visible, un aménagement soigné ou un projet où l’état initial compte particulièrement. Demandez les photos et les caractéristiques du conteneur proposé.
Occasion : pour quels usages ?
Un conteneur d’occasion a déjà servi au transport maritime. Les bosses, les reprises de peinture, la corrosion et les réparations varient d’une unité à l’autre : l’appellation seule ne décrit pas son état réel.
Pour le stockage, le chantier ou un usage technique, une occasion contrôlée peut répondre au besoin avec un budget initial plus contenu. Distinguez les traces d’usage acceptables des défauts qui affectent la structure, la fermeture des portes ou l’étanchéité.
Que vérifier avant l’achat ?
- Structure : déformations importantes, trous, corrosion perforante, état du châssis et des coins ISO.
- Portes et joints : ouverture, fermeture, fonctionnement des barres de verrouillage et continuité des joints.
- Plancher et étanchéité : zones molles, réparations inadaptées et entrées de lumière anormales, hors ventilation prévue.
Pour un transport maritime international, faites aussi confirmer la validité CSC et l’aptitude de l’unité au transport prévu. La plaque ne remplace pas l’examen du conteneur.
Budget : que faut-il comparer ?
À format comparable, l’occasion est généralement moins chère à l’achat. Vérifiez aussi ce que le devis inclut : le conteneur, le transport et le déchargement sur votre site.
À format identique, les dimensions nominales restent les mêmes ; la tare et la charge utile se vérifient sur les plaques. Pour un frigorifique, un Open Side ou un conteneur équipé, contrôlez aussi les équipements décisifs pour votre usage : groupe froid, portes ou installations.
In detail
Double Door: what is a logistics tunnel for?
A standard container has doors at only one end. To empty it, you always come back to the same side. The Double Door adds a second set of doors at the other end of the body. The container becomes a tunnel: you go in one side, out the other.
This tunnel serves two warehouse logics. FIFO first: the first pallet loaded is the first to come back out, without moving the others. Cross-docking next: placed between two docks, the container receives incoming goods on one side and ships out on the other, with no turning maneuver. Flows gain in speed and order.
Applications
Uses for a 20ft used Double Door container
The reconditioned 20ft serves logistics flows where tunnel mode remains required without justifying a new investment. Four uses illustrate this:
The applications below show in which contexts this format is most relevant. Each use links the on-the-ground need to the container's concrete benefit.
Highlights
Why buy a 20ft used Double Door container
The used 20ft Double Door retains the tunnel function, the through-access that gives this format its value, at a reduced cost. The strengths below show what the depot inspection guarantees on both door interfaces and why surface patina changes nothing about its use.
The strengths below explain what each technical choice brings to the project. They help compare the product with a less specialized alternative or a different condition.
-
Affordable price on the bidirectional tunnel

Used represents a significant saving compared with new, with no loss of the double-door function. The budget difference carries over to the project.
-
Corten body inspected at the depot

Applications
What is the price of a 20ft used Double Door container
The used 20ft Double Door follows an active secondary market. Its availability depends on the arrival cycles of reconditioned dual-access bodies.
Four factors influence the prices observed:
The factors below explain why the price can vary from one quote to another. They help read a quote by distinguishing the price of the product, availability and delivery costs.
