Questions People Ask About Our Container Awnings

How are container awnings different from standard awnings?

Container awnings are specifically designed to mount securely on the corrugated walls of shipping containers. They often feature more robust mounting systems and may offer greater projection to maximise the usable space around the container.

Can container awnings be easily removed or retracted?

Yes, many of our container awning solutions feature retractable designs. The awnings retract into their own cassettes for safe storage when not in use. A PVC covering further protects your investment. For more permanent installations, we offer options that can be safely dismantled when the container needs to be relocated.

How do container awnings impact the mobility of the container?

Our awning systems are designed with the potential mobility of containers in mind. They can be easily retracted or removed when the container needs to be moved, and reinstalled at the new location without compromising the awning's integrity or performance.

Will the awnings work with all containers?

Yes, all our installations are bespoke. So whether you're expecting a small container delivery or want to cover space between two high cube containers, we have the right products and expertise to create exactly what you want. Our products can enhance outdoor storage solutions, popup shops, container cafes, and more.
