Frequently asked questions

How are personal access doors installed into shipping containers?

Shipping container PA doors are installed by cutting a prepared opening into the container wall and fitting a reinforced door frame. The frame is welded or mechanically fixed to maintain structural integrity and provide a stable mounting point for the door.

Do container PA doors weaken the container structure?

No – when correctly engineered and installed, reinforced frames redistribute structural loads around the opening. This ensures the container’s strength and performance are maintained.

Are shipping container PA doors weather-resistant?

Yes. Larnec container doors are designed with perimeter seals, tight tolerances, and durable finished to help protect against wind, rain, and dust ingress in exposed environments.

Are container PA doors wind rated?

Yes. Larnec offers wind-rated door solutions across its Sentry series. Depending on the wind region and site conditions, specific door configurations can be selected to meet required wind load ratings. Certification is available to verify compliance.

Can container PA doors be customised for site use?

Yes. Container doors can be customised in size, swing direction, finish, and lock preparation to suit specific site, access, and operational requirements.

Are container PA doors suitable for transportable and modular buildings?

Absolutely. Shipping container PA doors are commonly used in transportable and modular structures due to their strength, durability, and compatibility with steel wall systems.

Do container PA door meet commercial and site safety expectations?

When correctly specified, container PA doors support safe access, controlled entry, and regulatory compliance for commercial, industrial and construction environments.
