Container Conversions

Container Conversions

Container Conversions to Site Offices, Secure Stores, Sound Proof Generator Containers, Fire Proof Cabins, Plant Housing, etc...

Shipping containers have such a good basic design that they are perfect for converting to an almost infinite number of alternate uses, principally for extra security, portability, for housing equipment e.g. generators and as a secure working environment.

We add value to a basic product through product knowledge, design, high quality workmanship and thorough customer service. You receive the benefit of our 30 year knowledge of containers when planning a business solution using our container conversions.

We have supplied a considerable number of containers to a lot of people for a lot of different uses – there isn’t much we haven’t seen, so speak to us for honest and thorough service and advice!

Some examples


Site Office Container Conversions

A very common request is to convert containers to site offices, mess room, or storage cabins.

Armoured and normal personnel doors are commonly fitted into the sidewalls of the container. However, in the example below the customer decided to use the original doors for security and had an internal bulkhead fitted just behind them, with a wooden internal door.

You can have as many windows fitted as required to your container conversions and we supply security shutters that make the box more vandal/thief resistant.

Container Conversions - Versatile Storage Container Options Container Conversions - Features such as security shutters can reduce the chance of vandalism or break in.

We have stud lined the walls and roof, infilled with ISOWOOL insulation and over-laid this with plastic coated white-face plywood.

Electrics are an option but most requests include a minimum of some 13 amp sockets and strip lights.

Sound and Vandal Proof Container Conversions

We were approached by a blue chip customer requiring a vandal-proof shell for mobile generators, which were also insulated for sound deadening to improve the attractiveness of their product in the mobile generator rental market.

We created 10ft unit conversions from standard containers, fitted custom design louvered vents for air in-let and out-let that also reduced noise emissions, insulated the box for sound proofing, installed a mounting structure for the generator unit to be held securely in place, and ducted the air-out and exhaust outlets direct to atmosphere, leaving a box that was extremely quiet and virtually anonymous as a generator unit.

Thefts of generators and fuel, and damage to the generators themselves have now stopped and more customers are specifying ‘armoured’ generators as a result!

Mill house Container Conversions

A large project management company asked us to convert a 40ft container into an integrated mill house and control cabin to their design.

We constructed two 5ft doors to give an overall 10ft doorway to install the mill, put in a bulkhead to separate the control cabin from the mill room.

A large raw material silo was to be mounted over the top of the mill feeding raw material into the mill for processing (at 3,500rpm!). We built an integrated silo frame into the structure of the container, which also became the door posts on the one side. This approach enabled the load of the silo to be carried on the bottom rails of the container, which are the main load bearing structure of a container.

The silo sub-frame is designed and built to withstand the forces of 100 mph winds on the silo attached it.

20mm thick steel mounting plates were inserted flush into the floor and welded onto the floor cross members, onto which the mill was mounted.

With other various duct ports, we then completely sound insulated the main mill room in fire resistant materials that were built and fitted to withstand many years of vibration, without any deterioration.
