Steel Personnel Doors

Steel personnel doors are offered as an option for all containers and offices from Containers Direct

We offer personnel doors as standard alongside our other four choices of doors. Made from steel and incorporating multi deadlocks, they offer the high levels of security you would expect on a container or site office, but are more convenient to use as they are the same size and design as a 'front door', rather than cargo doors.

Uses of personnel doors

Steel personnel doors are a necessity on office conversions. As many cabin offices are converted from shipping containers, it would not only look unprofessional, but it would be a downright nuisance to be hauling a shipping container door open and closed several times a day!

A single or double door can be fitted at either side or end of the office, and any number can be fitted according to size and requirements. Personnel doors are suitable for any type of container conversion in frequent use - from offices to classrooms, to workshops and equipment stores.

Optional extras

Personnel door with vision panel

Wide access door

Push button digital lock

Multiple Personnel Doors

A popular option if you're dividing your container using a partition to create multiple spaces with separate external entry points. We've commonly seen multiple doors in containers which are being rented to separate occupants as separate offices, or in site offices where one half of the container is a drying room and the other a canteen.

Sliding doors

We can use other styles of personnel doors for our bespoke conversions, including glazed patio doors and bi-fold doors.Give our Sales Team a call or send us an email to find out more!

order - a Used 10ft Container

"The product (flat pack container 4m) is excellent. I already have one that I bought 18 months ago which has been secure and kept everything stored in great condition. I needed another storage container so came straight back to you. The lead time was even quicker than the previous time which was great. The delivery was slightly tricky but the driver (Steve) was cheerful and helpful and managed the job safely , even in the pouring rain at the time. Overall, great product and delivery and very satisfied." Michael Spencer
