Real windows and doors for shipping containers. No welding.

ContainerREADY™ installation kits create finished residential-style openings. You buy the kit here. You buy the matching window or door separately at Lowe’s.

Choose Window or Door How buying works

Purchase safety — know what you are buying

  1. Kit from Container Creations — jamb and trim installation system designed for shipping containers.
  2. Window or door from Lowe’s — matching residential unit purchased separately.
  3. Designed around the recommended unit — use the size selector and Lowe’s match on the product page.
  4. You are not inventing the system — cut the opening, assemble the kit, set the matched unit, seal and finish.

Corrugated steel is not a house wall

House windows and doors sit in framed walls with known rough openings. A container wall is corrugated steel. There is no conventional wood framing waiting for a Home Depot kit.

That is why “just buy a window and screw it in” turns into welding, custom metal frames, shimming chaos, or an industrial look you did not want.

  • Ordering the glass or door first with no install system planned
  • Assuming welding is the only real way
  • Freehanding a house-window install into corrugation
  • Measuring only the nominal size on the box instead of actual outside dimensions
  • Expecting Container Creations to ship the window or door in the same box as the kit

What ContainerREADY eliminates

No welding

A no-weld path to a finished opening — not a custom steel porthole project.

No invented framing

You are not designing the jamb and trim system from scratch on corrugated steel.

Residential finish

Built for a finished living-space look — not an industrial metal-frame retrofit.

Frequently asked questions

Is the window or door included?

No. You buy the ContainerREADY™ installation kit here. The matching window or door is sold separately at Lowe’s.

Why is it sold separately?

So you can buy the correct residential unit locally by size, with local pickup or delivery options.

Do I need to weld?

No — that is the point of ContainerREADY.

Can I use a different window or door?

The kit is designed around the matched Lowe’s unit listed for each option. Other units may not fit — measure carefully or contact us.

Can I add both a window and a door?

Yes — many projects add both kits.

What about heat and condensation?

Openings help with light and access. For heat and moisture control, add AdaptAIR™ roof ventilation.
