Regional availability and prices will vary slightly, so please contact us for a quote. As a rough guide these are around twice the price of a standard, end opening new build container – there’s a lot of specialised engineering that goes into these side doors and as they are specialist containers they aren’t built in the sorts of volumes that standard shipping containers are built in – so the factories can’t offer the same economies of scale.
 
If price is a major concern please do get in touch to discuss, we may be able to offer a number of other solutions such as fitting cargo doors or roller shutters into the side of a new or used shipping container. We may also be able to take a container and modify it to have curtain access along the side. If it helps you are more than welcome to call us during office hours and we can chat through various options and rough costs to help you decide what might be the best / most viable option for you before firming up prices in writing.
 Door panel sizes do vary from one range to the next but all doors we’ve seen operate in the same manner and will always fold back onto the sides
