Iron Parts for Container Mobile Houses

Admin September 15, 2026

The iron parts for container mobile houses mainly include corner fittings, locks, hinges, brackets, corrugated sheets, casters, etc. These parts play a crucial role in the structural stability, ease of assembly and disassembly, and functionality realization of the houses.

  1. Corner Fittings and Locks
    Corner fittings are the core connecting components of container mobile houses. They are usually made of high-strength cast iron or steel and are used to fix the four corners of the house frame, ensuring overall structural stability. Locks are used to secure the connections between container bodies. For example, folding containers require special lock heads at the folding parts to ensure safety during transportation or storage. Some manufacturers, such as Hebei Cangzhou Xinhe Container Manufacturing Co., Ltd., offer customized corner seats and lock head-seat assemblies to fit containers of different specifications.

  2. Hinges and Brackets
    Hinges are used to enable flexible opening and closing of container doors, windows, or folding structures, requiring corrosion resistance and high load-bearing capacity. Brackets are used to support the internal structure of the house, such as partitions and roofs. Common materials include galvanized steel or aluminum alloy to reduce weight and enhance durability. For example, in the products of Beijing Falilai Mobile Panel House Co., Ltd., the main frame is pressed from special-shaped steel plates, and the side panels are connected to the frame through hinges for quick assembly and disassembly.

  3. Corrugated Sheets and Roof Panels
    Corrugated sheets are commonly used materials for the exterior walls and roofs of container houses, usually made of galvanized steel plates or color-coated steel plates. They are formed into wave patterns through a profiling process to enhance structural strength and improve waterproof performance. Roof panels require additional waterproof rubber strips and wind hooks to prevent rainwater leakage. The container roof panels and corrugated sheets sold directly by Hebei Xinhe Factory support custom processing, with thickness and material adjustable according to needs.

  4. Casters and Towing Devices
    For scenarios requiring frequent movement, such as emergency rescue or temporary exhibitions, container casters become key accessories. For example, cast-iron polyurethane casters can withstand heavy loads of empty containers, fit standard container corner fittings, and enable overall movement using forklifts or towing vehicles. Such accessories are widely used in the folding containers of Suzhou Zhongnan Steel Structure Co., Ltd., significantly improving transportation efficiency.

  5. Other Parts
    These include sealing rubber strips, pad eyes, and wing locks, which are used to enhance the sealing, load-bearing capacity, or safety of the house. For example, rubber strips can prevent wind and rain from entering, pad eyes are used to secure internal equipment, and wing locks improve the stability of connections between container bodies.
