Shipping Container Corner Castings: Top and Bottom ISO Fittings Differences

By | Education | No Comments

Today, we will be looking at corner castings for shipping containers and the differences between the top and bottom fittings. These are on the four corners of a sea container that allows it to be lifted off the ground by a container handler for transportation.

We sell a lot of these corner castings at The Container Guy. People use them for building skids or welding them to containers to lift up with twist locks, forklifts or chassis. On our website, we have many sea can accessories for moving and securing ISO containers.

We have twist locking mechanisms, container lifters, bridge fittings, mounting plates, and attach skids.

Converting A Shipping Container Into An Insulated, Fire Rated Utility Building

By | Uncategorized | No Comments

Converting a Shipping Container into a Master Control Room (MCC electrical service shack). The Container Guy will take you along as we modify a sea can into an MCC electrical shack.

We will first install drywall and checker plate flooring before we cut out and install doors and ventilation frames.

The next step is installing steel stud framing and spray foam, which is followed by a 2-hour fire-rated wall construction system.

We will finish off the mod by installing a 10” exhaust fan, intake damper vents, a heat pump / AC unit, panic bar door hardware with a self-closing device, and a final coat of epoxy floor coating.

Many construction methods and tips in this video transfer over to container home and cabin construction in Northern climates.
