When the ground isn’t level, problems appear quickly

Containers are rarely placed on perfectly even surfaces.
Gravel, uneven asphalt, or temporary construction sites often create small differences in height.

It may seem like a minor detail – but it’s not.

A misaligned container can lead to:

• Doors that stick or don’t close properly

• Uneven load distribution in the structure

• Increased wear on corner castings and frame

• Temporary fixes using wooden blocks or wedges

In practice, this means lost time and reduced efficiency.

There isn’t one solution – but the right solution for your setup

Depending on your situation, you can choose between two approaches:

• Flexible and precise leveling

• Simple height adjustment directly in the corner

At Specialcontainer, both solutions are in stock in Denmark – ready for fast delivery.

Solution 1: Container leveling legs (set)

When a container needs to stand stable on uneven or soft ground, leveling legs are the most flexible solution.

Benefits:

• Precise adjustment at each corner

• Stable solution – even under heavy loads

• Suitable for construction, offshore, and industrial use

• Works on gravel, soil, and uneven surfaces

As the official distributor in Denmark, we offer Robymaster leveling legs, manufactured in Spain and known for high quality and durability.

Solution 2: Height adjustment foot plate

When you need a quick and simple adjustment, the foot plate is a compact solution mounted directly in the container’s corner casting.

Benefits:

• Fast installation without additional construction

• Adjustment directly in the corner via thread

• Ideal for minor height differences

• Suitable for both temporary and permanent use

This product is now available from stock in Esbjerg – for the first time in Denmark.

Which solution should you choose?

It depends on your situation:

• Large level differences / soft ground → leveling legs

• Small adjustments / quick fix → foot plate

In many projects, the two solutions are used together.

Q&A

When should I choose leveling legs instead of foot plates?
Leveling legs are the best choice when the ground is uneven or soft and larger adjustments are needed. They provide maximum stability and flexibility.

Are foot plates enough to stabilize a container?
Yes – if only minor height differences need to be corrected. Foot plates are ideal for fine adjustment but do not replace leveling legs in more demanding conditions.

Can both solutions be used permanently?
Yes. Both solutions can be used for temporary and permanent setups depending on the project and load requirements.

Can I combine leveling legs and foot plates?
Yes. In some setups, it makes sense to combine both – using leveling legs for rough leveling and foot plates for fine adjustment. This ensures both stability and precision.
