      Double Door ; Tunnel container

      What is a Double Door container?

      A Double Door container, also known as a tunnel container, differs from a standard container in one simple characteristic: it has swing doors at both ends, not just one. Both ends of the box open.

      This detail changes the handling logic entirely. On a standard container, you load and unload through the same door: to empty the back, you must remove everything in front of it, or drive a forklift in and then reverse it out. The Double Door eliminates this constraint — goods enter from one end and exit from the other, in a straight pass-through, without any reversing.

      This through-flow speeds up logistics operations: a loading station at one end, an unloading station at the other, and the container becomes a true transit tunnel. The configuration also makes it easier to handle very long loads, which can be slid from end to end, and serves as a base for through-access conversions: airlocks, technical corridors, dual-access modules.

      • Through access

        Swing doors are fitted at both ends of the box. You load from one end and unload from the other; access is no longer restricted to a single face.
      • Accelerated flow

        Cargo passes through the container from end to end, without reversing or repositioning. A loading station at one end, an unloading station at the other: logistics flows gain in pace.
      • Long loads

        Long goods slide from one end to the other without any angular manoeuvre. Their introduction and removal are significantly simplified.
      • Convertible passage

        The two opposing openings make the Double Door an ideal base for through-access conversions: an airlock, a technical corridor, a dual-access module, or a covered walkway.

      In detail

      What is a 20ft first-trip Double Door container?

      A Double Door container is a container fitted with doors at both ends of the body, not just one. "First-trip" means it is a new unit, out of the factory after a single positioning journey. The 20ft format is the mid-size format in the range.

      Both ends receive double doors opening at 270°: they fold back almost completely along the walls. The container becomes a logistics tunnel: goods are loaded from one side and unloaded from the other, with no turning maneuver. This configuration serves FIFO flows, First In, First Out, and cross-docking, direct transfer from a receiving dock to a shipping dock.

      In the 20ft format, the unit offers 33.17 m³ of usable volume (5.9 m × 2.352 m × 2.392 m) for a 28,230 kg payload, values equivalent to those of a standard 20ft Dry container. The Corten steel body is fully welded, the marine plywood floor is 28 mm thick.

      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 first-trip Double Door container

      The bidirectional tunnel transforms warehouse logistics: pallets go in one side and come out the other. Four industrial uses make the most of this configuration:

      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.

      • FIFO cross-docking in warehouses

        First-in first-out pallet flows, optimized stock rotation and reduced internal maneuvers.

      • Multi-dock food distribution

        Placed between two docks for simultaneous distribution to several trucks, with time saved at docking.

      • Automotive industry and spare parts

        Sequential flow on the assembly line, tunnel access from receiving and production areas with no break.

      • Brewing and wine industry

        Full kegs enter at the front and empty kegs exit at the rear, a rational organization of the storage yard.

      Highlights

      Why buy a 20ft first-trip Double Door container

      The new 20ft Double Door is the tunnel format for cross-docking: it turns the container into a through-passage. The strengths below explain what dual access changes for logistics flows and why it detracts from neither payload nor maritime robustness.

      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.

      • Bidirectional tunnel

        Double doors at 270° equip both ends. Loading happens at the front and unloading at the rear, with no turning or intermediate maneuver.

      • FIFO cross-docking

        Dual access optimizes first-in first-out pallet rotation, with no need to move or turn the container itself.

      • Dual-dock compatibility

        The container is placed between two opposite docks. This configuration noticeably reduces docking time at high-turnover logistics hubs.

      • Payload equivalent to Dry

        28,230 kg allowable for 33.17 m³, with no compromise compared with a standard 20ft Dry container. The second door costs nothing in capacity.

      • Fully welded Corten body

        The self-weathering steel structure guarantees maritime robustness. The container complies with ISO 6346 and CSC for international multimodal transport.

      • 28 mm marine plywood floor

        A flat, continuous surface that withstands forklifts maneuvering from both ends. Through traffic does not wear down the floor.

      Applications

      What is the price of a 20ft first-trip Double Door container

      The new 20ft Double Door belongs to a specialized shipping segment. Its price depends on the limited availability of units with double doors at both ends and the extra cost of dual opening hardware.

      Four factors influence the price 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.

      • Cross-docking and tunnel logistics demand

        The growth of FIFO platforms and multi-dock food distribution sustains demand for the 20ft Double Door.

      • Cost of Corten steel and dual hardware

        Body, two sets of 270° doors and two locking bar systems weigh on the factory price.

      • Shipping logistics pressures

        Double Door supply remains structurally more limited than that of the standard Dry container.

      • Downstream costs

        Standard 20ft road transport and handling equivalent to a Dry container.
