Description
A single side 40ft container post kit lets you put up a container roof or dome without needing a container on both sides. Mount one side on a container and the other on steel posts – handy when you only have one container or want a wider opening.
It’s sized for a 40ft run, so it lines up neatly with a 40ft shipping container.

Why people choose a single side 40ft container post kit

- Opens up the side for drive-through access
- Great for carports, machinery bays and hay storage
- Works with our dome shelters and container roofs
Installation
The posts bolt down to concrete footings or an existing slab. Check with your council if the structure will be permanent, and use a licensed builder if engineering sign-off is needed.
Planning your shelter
Before you order a single side 40ft container post kit, measure your site and decide how you’ll use the space. Think about which way the wind usually blows (point the closed end into it), how much clearance your machinery needs, and whether you want a backwall to close off one end. Containers need to sit on a level, compacted base so the frame lines up properly.

Questions we get asked
What’s the difference between single and double side?
Single side kits replace one container – you still mount the other side on a container. Double side kits replace both, so no containers are needed.
Are footings included?
No. The kit includes the steel posts and fixings. Footings or a slab are done on site.
Can I use it with a dome shelter?
Yes, that’s what most customers do. Ask us to package it with the dome you need.
