Are you looking for a reliable and spacious shipping container for storage, transport, or even creative conversions? Our offer in Prague includes 40-foot High Cube containers in first-class IICL 6 quality, in a durable green color RAL 6005, equipped with the innovative Easy Open Door system and a total of 12 ventilation openings. These containers are stored in a container depot in Prague and represent an ideal solution for the needs of city police, as well as for corporate or private use, where security, mobility, and space are key. Transport is not included in the price; self-pickup at the Prague depot is required.
Standard dimensions and capacity of a 40-foot High Cube container
A container with a length of 40 feet (12.2 meters) in the High Cube version offers greater internal clearance compared to the classic version. The standard external dimensions are approximately 12,192 mm in length, 2,438 mm in width, and 2,896 mm in height. Inside, you get a space of approximately 12,032 mm in length, 2,352 mm in width, and 2,698 mm in height, providing an enormous usable volume of around 76.3 m³. The load capacity of such a container is around 26,500 kg, and thanks to the robust steel construction, it safely handles even demanding loads. Dimensions are approximate and may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer.
In practice, this means you can store a considerable amount of equipment, documents, technology, or anything that requires protection from weather conditions and unauthorized access.
IICL 6 quality and RAL 6005 finish
IICL 6 is a recognized standard used in the container industry, which designates a used, but fully functional and fit-for-purpose container for maritime, rail, and road transport. Containers in this rating grade are carefully inspected, show only minor surface traces from previous use, and undergo reviews of all structural elements – doors, hinges, flooring, sealing, and the entire shell. Parts that may need replacement are substituted with certified components, so you receive a tried-and-tested piece with a long service life.
Color RAL 6005 (moss green) is one of the most popular shades for police, military, and municipal applications. This rich dark green tone not only blends well with surrounding greenery or areas but also looks professional and durable. The painting is done with a high-quality synthetic coating providing excellent protection against corrosion, UV radiation, and mechanical damage. In addition, upon request, we can supply containers in a different color according to your preference.
Comfortable Easy Open Door and 12x Air Vents
A practical feature of every container in this edition is the Easy Open Door (EOD) system. This is a special modification of the door mechanisms that significantly reduces the force required to open the door leaves, even when fully loaded. The hinges and latches work smoothly, so staff does not have to exert excessive effort, and handling the container is quick and comfortable.
For effective ventilation, 12 air vents are provided, distributed along both side walls. This passive ventilation helps maintain constant air circulation, prevents moisture buildup and condensation formation. Inside, stored items remain in an optimal microclimate – you will appreciate this especially during long-term storage of sensitive equipment, uniforms, or documentation, which moisture quickly destroys.
Use for city police – storage, transport, and conversions
Thanks to their parameters, 40′ High Cube containers become a universal tool precisely for city police units. Their durability, security, and flexibility open up a range of possibilities:
Storage for city police
In a volume of 76 m³, you can store an enormous amount of material – from seasonal equipment (traffic cones, barriers, signage, tents) through uniform and protective gear supplies to heavy equipment such as defibrillators, radio stations, cameras, or light modules. The robust metal shell with lockable doors protects valuable inventory from theft and adverse weather. For example, a 40-foot High Cube holds up to 12 euro pallets of boxed goods, or several motorcycles or ATVs – ideal for mobile patrolling.
Transport of material and equipment
Standardized container dimensions allow easy transfer between truck, rail wagon, and ship. If it is necessary to strengthen capacities in another part of the city, the equipment is simply loaded and transported without complications. For the police, this means rapid team deployment during emergencies, securing cultural events, or crisis supply. Since the container meets strict IICL 6 standards, it is certified for demanding long-distance transport as well.
Conversions for special needs
One of the greatest advantages is the ability to adapt the container interior to the specific tasks of the officers. It can be used as:
- A mobile office or station – installation of a partition, lighting, heating/air conditioning, and connectors for equipment creates an immediate base for operational management.
- Changing rooms and sanitary facilities – built-in cabinets, benches, washbasin, and chemical toilet provide comfort to patrols at remote workplaces.
- Storage and charging station for e-scooters or drones – with additional ventilation and fire resistance.
- Temporary holding areas – a modified cell with security doors and monitoring; thanks to the robust construction, walls cannot be breached with common tools.
- Expert workplace – chemical laboratory, space for trace analysis, or mobile records.
Advantages of container solutions for city police
A steel container is virtually indestructible and resists vandalism, fire, and extreme weather. It offers immediate readiness for use, is easily moved using standard equipment (forklift, crane with a spreader frame), and thanks to its uniform dimensions, it fits even into cramped city courtyards. Low operating costs, minimal maintenance, and stacking capability also allow building entire modular complexes without a building permit, if the situation allows. Setting aside the immediate investment, it is a long-term sustainable solution that can be moved or modified at any time.
Mobility and practical recommendations
Thanks to standardized corner fittings, the container is ready for quick removal. When planning a conversion, we recommend considering the electrical connection (just bringing a cable through the prepared grommet), installing safety lighting and signaling, and last but not least, marking in accordance with city police regulations. If you plan to anchor the container more permanently, support it with distribution boards or a reinforced base to prevent sinking into the terrain. For mobile deployment, an own generator is also an advantage, providing electricity inside completely independently.
Further ideas for use
In addition to classic police agendas, the container can be equipped as an information center for citizens during city festivals, a hidden observation station when monitoring problematic locations, or a first aid center during mass accidents. Combined with RAL 6005, it blends inconspicuously into the surroundings, emphasizing the tactical nature of the deployment.
