Both sizes require 19.2 feet of clear space between the containers. The shelter clamps to the top rails of both containers, so the spacing must match before the frame will fit. Choose the 20' × 20' for two 20 ft containers. Choose the 40' × 20' for two 40 ft containers. Before You Buy End walls are not included. The shelter is open at both ends as shipped. Requires two shipping containers of matching length and height. This is not a freestanding structure. Not compatible with refrigerated (reefer) containers. The clamps cannot grip reefer side panels the way they grip a standard container. Check your local permit requirements before installing. Requirements vary by jurisdiction. In heavy-snow regions, confirm the 47 lbs/sq ft rating meets your local building code. Some northern and high-elevation jurisdictions require a higher rating.
