Knock-Down Storage Rooms and Storage Container Units: How to Use Them

The popularity of knock-down storage rooms
that meet every need in changing times

For people who have so many belongings or so much equipment that there is no storage space left at home and the house gets cluttered, or small SME owners who keep stock at home or in a home office until it takes over the space inside the house or building and makes the interior inconvenient to use, as well as business owners who want to save on the cost of building an office, showroom or shopfront, choosing a knock-down storage room or knock-down storage container unit that can be lifted in and installed right away on the grounds of a house, a building or a prepared plot of land, without spending on construction costs and construction time, is a highly convenient solution. In addition, those interested in running a storage rental business can also save on building construction costs by using knock-down storage rooms or storage container units instead. However, to buy a knock-down storage room or storage container unit that matches your needs as closely as possible, you need to consider the following.

Ideas for choosing a knock-down storage room or storage container unit to suit your use

• Choosing a knock-down storage room or storage container unit for household use
  If the purpose of the knock-down storage room or storage container unit is to find extra space for storing a large number of household items, or a place to store certain equipment that is large or hard to find space for, such as car care equipment, gardening tools or camping gear, you should choose a knock-down storage room or storage container unit sized to suit the area where it will be installed, such as a single-room knock-down storage room or storage container unit with a roller shutter door, or an office-style knock-down storage room with a spacious interior and a high ceiling. For example, SBT Worldwide Product's knock-down storage room or storage container unit model G2, which is a guard box, can also be adapted for use as a knock-down storage room with a glass door, measuring 2.3 x 2.3 m, suitable for installation at a residence or home office with little space around the building. Because this knock-down storage room or storage container unit model is compact and takes up little space, it can be installed in the front garden or the back utility yard. Or, if the house has plenty of space around it, you can use the roller shutter knock-down storage room or storage container unit model WH, measuring 3.00 x 6.00 x 2.69 m, 3.20 m high. Its height, room depth and load capacity of 1,500 kg/m² allow this knock-down storage room model to store large items or large quantities, such as SME product stock, or to store various chemicals, very well.
• Choosing a knock-down storage room or storage container unit for business purposes
  For business use of knock-down storage rooms or storage container units, whether as a storage room for an office, a storage rental business, or to use the knock-down storage room or storage container unit as a shop, worker accommodation, showroom or office, you should choose a knock-down storage room or storage container unit that is large with plenty of usable space. You can choose either a structure that supports a two-storey extension or a structure that supports only a single storey. SBT Worldwide Product offers several large knock-down storage room or storage container unit models suited to business use, such as the glass-door knock-down storage room or storage container unit model PH, 3.00 m wide, 6.00 m long and 2.55 m high, which can be used as an office because it is spacious and comes with amenities such as air conditioning and built-in lighting. This knock-down storage room model suits a single-storey structure. Or, if you want an airy, open storage room or office, there is the glass knock-down storage room or storage container unit, made to order, with glass sliding doors whose style can be chosen to the customer's requirements, suitable for use as a showroom, shop or coffee shop. And if you want a spacious, fully enclosed storage space to use as a small warehouse or for a storage rental business, you can choose the roller shutter knock-down storage room or storage container unit model WH, measuring 6.00 x 6.00 x 2.69 m. This knock-down storage room model has the same characteristics as the WH model measuring 3.00 x 6.00, but arranged as two rooms joined together, giving more usable space. This knock-down storage room model also has a load capacity of 1,500 kg/m², so it can be used to hold large quantities of stock without worrying that the structure of the unit will be damaged.

Guidelines for choosing the specifications of a knock-down storage room or storage container unit

Besides choosing the type and size of knock-down storage room to suit your purpose and the size of the installation area, you also need to consider the specifications of the room itself, so that you get a knock-down storage room or storage container unit that is of good quality and durable. The knock-down storage room specifications to consider are as follows.

• What material is the structure of the knock-down storage room or storage container unitmade from? Is it durable? If you want a durable structure that lasts a long time, the suitable material for a knock-down storage room structure is galvanised steel, which is durable and does not rust.
• Choose a knock-down storage room or storage container unit structure that suits your use, because knock-down storage room structures come both in types suited to a two-storey extension and in single-storey types that cannot have a second storey added.
• What material are the walls and ceiling of the knock-down storage room or storage container unit made from? Do they insulate against heat well? The material that insulates a knock-down storage room well is walls and ceilings lined with PU foam insulation. What systems are installed inside the knock-down storage room or storage container unit, such as electrical wiring, air conditioning and breaker connections?
• Choose the flooring material for the knock-down storage room or storage container unit to match your needs and type of use, and choose a durable material, such as steel plate, which carries loads well and suits warehouse units, or Viva Board, made from Portland cement mixed with wood sawdust, which is durable and does not rot, suitable for general use.
• Choose the style and size of the doors and windows of the knock-down storage room or storage container unit to match your needs and type of use. For example, if you want to use it as a stock room or to store large items, you should choose a knock-down storage room with a roller shutter door that can be raised along its full width, giving a wide opening and making moving items in and out convenient.

And if you are looking for a knock-down storage room or storage container unit made from quality materials, strong, durable and easy to install, we recommend the knock-down storage rooms or storage container units from SBT Worldwide Product.
