Enhanced Security
Security is essential when it comes to storing sensitive or valuable items. While shipping containers are secure by design, there are many additional features that can be installed to enhance security. Modification options include steel window bars and alarm systems. These can be put in both inside and outside the container to make it harder for unauthorised individuals to gain access.
In addition to these security features, a tunnel container can be secured with security locks of high-security. This locks the door shut and prevents unauthorized users from opening it. A locking box can be used to secure the lock, increasing security by preventing tampering. A crossbar lock can be fitted to the container's doors, making it more difficult for anyone to pry the door open.
