|---|---|---|
| 20ft Office ConversionLY-CAB-003 | Built on a 20ft shell, 6.058 × 2.438 m on plan. Internal floor area is reduced by the wall lining and insulation - allow roughly 75 to 100 mm off each face - giving about 13 m³ of finished room. Supplied with personnel door, windows, lining, vinyl or ceramic floor, distribution board with sockets and a split air conditioner. Every opening cut into the shell is framed in steel to put back the strength it removes. Priced from your layout: window and door positions, partitions and electrical points all move the figure. | Ask |
| 40ft Office ConversionLY-CAB-004 | Built on a 40ft shell, 12.192 × 2.438 m on plan, giving roughly 27 m³ of finished room after lining and insulation. Long enough to partition into an office plus a meeting room or a store, which is the usual reason it is chosen over two 20ft units. Supplied lined, floored, wired and air conditioned. Priced from your layout rather than from a catalogue. | Ask |
| Workshop / Store ConversionLY-CAB-005 | Built on a 20ft or 40ft shell to suit the work - state which. Fitted out for a working environment rather than an office: heavier flooring, bench provision, three-phase supply where required, task lighting and ventilation. Openings are framed in steel so the shell stays square through repeated lifting. Priced from your drawing. | Ask |

What it is
Containers cut, clad, insulated and fitted out — site offices, workshops and stores. Quoted per drawing.
Specification
Everything published for this product. Anything not listed here is not published — ask and we will confirm it for the unit you are buying.
- What it is
- A container cut, clad, insulated and fitted out for a purpose other than shipping - offices, workshops, stores, changing rooms.
- Who buys it
- Contractors needing a site office that can move between projects, operators wanting a workshop that locks like a safe, and anyone who needs a building where a permanent structure is not permitted.
- Made of
- The original steel shell, plus insulation, internal wall and ceiling lining, a vinyl or ceramic floor, personnel doors and windows, electrics with a distribution board and sockets, and a split air conditioner.
- How it works
- Every opening cut into the shell removes strength, so cut-outs are framed with steel to put it back. That framing is the difference between a conversion that stays square for ten years and one that racks the first time it is lifted.
- Quoted per drawing
- A conversion is priced from a layout, not from a catalogue. Window and door positions, partition walls, electrical points and air conditioning all move the figure, so the listed prices are the starting point for a standard fit-out.
- Where it is the wrong choice
- If the unit will never move and the site permits building, a block structure is usually cheaper per square metre. If you need more than about 30 square metres in one clear span, a purpose-built cabin beats joining containers together. And a conversion that will be craned repeatedly has to be specified for it up front.
- Sold by
- The unit, excluding 5% VAT. Fit-out to specification.
- Delivery
- All 7 Emirates from our own yard. Sharjah and the northern emirates are usually same day on stocked lines; the rest of the country is one to three working days. The delivery charge depends on the emirate, the load and the offloading, and is confirmed in writing on the quotation rather than guessed at here.
- Installation
- Supply only, or supplied and installed by our own crew rather than a subcontractor. Installation is quoted with the goods once we have the site conditions and the access, and is shown as its own line on the quotation.
