Dovetail Twist Lock and Foundation Plate Set

Description

Our dovetail twist lock and foundation plate set is the ultimate solution for securely fastening and aligning shipping containers. This robust set includes both the dovetail twist lock and the dovetail twist lock foundation plate, designed to work seamlessly together for maximum container stability and safety.

The dovetail twist lock is made from high-quality cast and forged steel, with a hot-dip galvanised finish for exceptional durability and corrosion resistance. It effectively secures each corner of the shipping container, ensuring it stays firmly in place. The innovative 45-degree design of the twist lock allows for easy engagement, with the handle positioning determining whether the container is locked or unlocked.

Complementing the twist lock is the dovetail twist lock foundation plate, a critical component that provides a stable and secure base. Made from the same durable materials, this foundation plate features precisely crafted dovetail-shaped slots that accommodate the twist locks with a snug, reliable fit. When used together, the foundation plate and twist lock form a highly secure fastening system, ensuring that your containers are perfectly aligned and held securely in place, even in the most demanding environments.

  Scarcroft and District Allotments Association in York have used two containers from Universal - one 20' unmodified new container as a store and one 40' new container insulated and supplied with electrics package and two secure windows and a secure accessible door as a shop- to replace their 50+ year-old wooden hut used as a shop and association base.  Shaun McWilliams (project engineer) has been our main contact at Universal with oversight and support from Carl Jeffries (project manager).  They have been hugely supportive through a long process.  Nothing has been too much trouble for Shaun, adapting plans and offering choices at every stage - always friendly, imaginative and flexible.  We'd recommend Universal without reservation for any project involving shipping containers.
