Why Choose Custom Containers?

Standard containers offer great security, but sometimes your needs go beyond basic storage. You might require a container to function as an on-site office, a secure workshop, a specialized storage unit for sensitive equipment, or even a unique retail space. Opting for custom secure self storage containers allows you to integrate specific features like extra doors, windows, insulation, ventilation systems, shelving, plumbing, or electrical wiring. This customization ensures the container is perfectly suited to its intended purpose, enhancing usability and operational efficiency for your business or project in Kenya.

Common Customizations and Modifications

Container with added shelving

We offer a wide range of customization options. Popular requests include adding personnel doors for easier access, windows for natural light, and robust security bars. Insulation and ventilation systems are crucial for maintaining stable internal temperatures and air quality, especially in Kenya's climate. We can install custom shelving and racking systems for optimized organization, roll-up doors for specific access needs, and even partition internal spaces to create multiple functional areas within a single container. Electrical installations for lighting and power outlets are also frequently requested.

Custom Containers for Businesses

Businesses in Kenya often leverage our custom container services. A common use is creating secure site offices for construction projects, providing a weather-proof and secure workspace. Other applications include secure storage for tools and equipment, mobile workshops, pop-up shops or retail kiosks, and even specialized storage for sensitive materials like chemicals or electronics that require specific environmental controls. Our custom secure self storage containers provide a flexible and cost-effective alternative to traditional building structures.

Custom Containers for Residential Use

While primarily focused on commercial applications, custom containers can also serve residential needs. For homeowners undertaking renovations, a custom container can be adapted into a secure temporary storage unit with easy access. In some cases, clients have used modified containers as garden sheds, workshops, or even unique studio spaces. The durability and security of these containers make them a versatile option for various personal projects. We work with you to ensure the final product aligns with your specific residential requirements.

Ensuring Security in Custom Builds

Security remains paramount in all our custom builds. We utilize the inherent strength of steel shipping containers as a base and enhance it with reinforced doors, high-security locks, and tamper-proof features. Any additions, such as windows or vents, are installed with security in mind, often incorporating protective grilles or robust framing. Our commitment is to deliver custom secure self storage containers that not only meet your functional needs but also provide the highest level of protection for your valuable assets.
