40ft High Cube Walk-In Cold Room — Racked Conversion
SKU MG-40HCREEF-ROOM · Held at Johannesburg, Gauteng
A 40ft high cube reefer converted into a turnkey walk-in cold room, fitted out for staff to work in rather than simply to store pallets. The build includes an insulated personnel door with an internal safety release, food-grade stainless steel adjustable racking down both sides with a clear central aisle, cold-rated LED lighting on a switched circuit, a wall-mounted temperature display with high and low alarm, and a sealed, easy-clean floor finish over the stainless T-bar. The refrigeration set is retained and run-tested, holding chill or freeze set points on a 400 V three-phase supply. Restaurants, catering groups, food wholesalers, retail back-of-house and packhouse operations use this configuration as an instant cold store that needs no municipal building plans and can be relocated if the business moves. A strip curtain, second door, glass display section or extra shelving bays can be quoted as extras before build begins.

The shell is fabricated from Corten A weathering steel — a copper, chromium and nickel alloy that forms a tightly adherent oxide layer instead of the flaking scale you get on mild steel. That patina slows further corrosion, which is why a 25-year-old box can still be structurally sound while a painted mild-steel shed of the same age has perforated.
Side and end panels are 14-gauge (2.0mm) corrugated sheet welded to a rigid frame of rolled top and bottom rails with cast steel corner fittings on the ISO 1161 pattern. Roof panels are 2.0mm with an arch profile that shifts standing water toward the eaves. Flooring is 28mm marine-grade plywood over steel cross-members on nominal 300mm centres, rated for a 7 260 kg forklift axle load.
Expect surface oxidation on used grades: it is cosmetic. We reject units with through-plate pitting, cracked welds at the corner posts, or bowed rails, because those defects affect stacking strength and cannot be repaired economically in the field.
