Storage spaces from a 40’HC shipping container IICL6 quality, HZKU 176 624-2

If you are looking for a really large and secure storage space, a 40-foot (12.2 m) shipping container in the High Cube variant is an ideal solution. Compared to standard containers, this type offers a greater internal height (approx. 2.70 m), which significantly increases its volume and possible uses. Thanks to IICL 6 quality and robust design, it is suitable even for long-term and demanding storage purposes. The price of the container is without transport. The container must be collected independently at the container depot – Dunajská Streda.

The container doors are fitted with 4-rod opening (4 door locks).

The four-rod system is particularly sought after in professional environments where safety and reliability are paramount.

Shipping container with 14 ventilation grilles and 4-rod door opening – An ideal storage for firefighters

A shipping container equipped with 14 ventilation grilles and 4-rod door opening is exceptionally suitable for fire brigades and rescue services. Thanks to its robust construction and high durability, this container is an ideal facility for safe and long-term storage of equipment, intervention gear and wet hoses, which often need to be quickly stored and dried after an intervention.

Advantages of thorough ventilation

One of the biggest benefits of this container is the system of 14 ventilation grilles. These ensure constant air circulation inside the container, which is key when storing equipment that may be damp or wet – for example intervention hoses, protective suits or rescue tools. Thanks to the ventilation, the risk of mould formation, musty odours and damage to material by moisture is significantly reduced. This is especially appreciated by fire units, which need to have their equipment always ready and in perfect condition.

Safety and convenience thanks to 4-rod opening

The container is equipped with four robust locking rods (4 door locks), which ensures maximum security of the stored material. This system is standard on sea containers, as it prevents unauthorised entry and at the same time allows convenient and quick opening. Handling heavy and bulky fire-fighting equipment is thus much easier.

What can be stored in the container

A shipping container with the size of 40-foot High Cube offers truly generous space – volume over 76 m³ and an internal height of around 2.7 metres. This allows you to store for example:

• Large stocks of intervention hoses and nozzles
• Dry and wet intervention suits, boots, helmets
• Rescue boats, vests, ropes and other water equipment
• Generators, pumps and other technical equipment
• Protective masks, breathing apparatuses, gas cylinders
• Folding tents, ladders and other bulky tools

Thanks to the maximum payload and the possibility of stacking, the container can be used not only for storage, but also as a mobile base during major interventions.

Various options for use and storage

The container can be easily adapted to current needs – for example by installing shelves, mounts, hanging systems or racks. It can be used not only by professional and volunteer firefighters, but also by technical services, water management companies, rescue teams, the army or construction companies for storing tools and sensitive material.

Where the container is suitable

The container can be placed practically anywhere – at a fire station, by a water surface, in an industrial area, on a construction site or in the field during emergencies. It withstands all weather conditions and thanks to its mobility it can be easily transported to another place or used as temporary facilities.

How much fits into a 40’ High Cube container?

A standard 40-foot High Cube container can comfortably hold for example:

• 200–300 pcs of intervention hoses of various lengths
• 10–12 intervention boats of the Zodiac type including engines
• 20 generators or pumps
• Racks with dozens of protective suits and helmets
• Larger bulky equipment such as folding tents, ladders or floating rescue aids

The exact quantity depends on the layout of the internal space and the type of stored material.

Recommendations and ideas for maximum use

For efficient storage, we recommend installing a racking system, hose hangers, boxes for small equipment and marking individual zones according to the type of material. The container can also be used as a drying room for hoses and suits – thanks to the ventilation grilles the equipment will always be dry and ready for use.

A shipping container with 14 ventilation grilles and 4-rod doors is an investment in safety, order and the long-term service life of fire-fighting equipment. It is a universal, mobile and highly practical solution not only for firefighters, but for everyone who needs a durable storage space with an emphasis on ventilation and safety.
