These 2 large 32x10ft cabins were built for a British transport company. They requested a large space to act as a welfare facility for drivers and staff in the peak district. Due to the customer’s specific requirements, one unit was not large enough so we suggested 2 units, however floor space was an issue on-site for them. The beauty of containers and cabins is that they can be stacked on top of each other and we could easily convert the containers to include a staircase to access the top unit – which is exactly what we did.
The top unit consisted of 3 rooms: a meeting room, an office and a large store room, whereas the bottom unit was converted to include a canteen, a locker room and a W/C. Both units had full electrics including heating, lighting and socket outlets installed. In addition to these features, both units were fitted with anti-vandal aluminium sliding windows that come with steel security shutters and steel personnel doors that have 10 point locking mechanisms. We also added effluent tanks to hold the waste from the canteen sink and the W/C. As suggested, we supplied them with a staircase and platform to access the top unit. We always offer professional installation on-site so we erected the setup at their chosen location.
