Container Door Stay – Shipping Container Door Holder

A container door catching a gust and slamming shut is how people lose fingers, and on an exposed site — a coastal reserve, a ridge-top depot, a tip face in a southerly — it happens often enough that some operators simply stop propping the doors at all. This powder coated steel door stay holds a cargo door open properly, folds flat against the container when it is not needed, and fits without tools.

It is a small item that removes a genuine hazard, which is why self-storage sites and council waste facilities tend to buy them by the dozen rather than one at a time.

• Tighten the support in place
• Insert the locking pin
• Fasten the door stay clip

Where they get used

Waste transfer and civic amenity sites that need doors held open through public opening hours. Self-storage yards protecting hirers who are loading in the wind. Any exposed site where doors stay open for extended periods while a truck or trolley works in and out.

Fit one per door

Each stay holds one door leaf, so a standard container with a pair of cargo doors takes two. Order accordingly. Other hardware and fit-out items are listed in container accessories, and the containers themselves in the 20ft category.
