Advantages of 20ft Expandable Container House
1. Robust and Durable Light Steel Frame Structure
Constructed with high-quality light steel frames, our folding houses are robust and durable, with structural stability comparable to traditional homes. Galvanized steel structures and sandwich panel walls, doors, and windows ensure the house can effectively withstand harsh weather conditions, offering anti-corrosion, sound insulation, moisture-proofing, and strong earthquake resistance.
2. Extremely Fast and Simple Installation
All components are prefabricated in the factory, making on-site installation extremely fast and simple, often completed in just a few minutes.
3. Highly Integrated and Comfortable Configuration
Our folding houses integrate wall systems, floor systems, electrical and plumbing systems, and seamlessly incorporate bathroom and kitchen pods, offering a complete living experience. A typical 20ft expandable container house features 2 bedrooms, 1 living room, 1 kitchen, and 1 bathroom. The design includes fire protection, thermal insulation, and resistance to termites, rodents, and pests, ensuring comfort and safety.
4. Convenient Transportation and Unique Customization
YG folding houses are ingeniously designed for convenient transportation. Each 20ft small container can transport three sets of foldable container mobile homes, and each 40ft high cube container can transport eight sets of these folding houses, significantly reducing shipping costs. Furthermore, we have an experienced team of designers who can provide fully customized styles based on your ideas, creating a beautiful masterpiece crafted to your specifications. If needed, we can also provide support legs and solar panels, enhancing their off-grid capabilities and allowing for easy upgrades to solar power and water tanks. This makes them a highly attractive option for clients looking for pre built cabins under $30,000.
5. Modular and Reusable Design
With a modular design, our expandable houses are flexible enough to create single, double, or even triple-story buildings, meeting diverse spatial requirements. Crucially, because they are assembled via an open-folding method and wall panels are not damaged during disassembly, these houses can be repeatedly disassembled and folded multiple times.
