# Port warehouses

 

We design, manufacture and install robust temporary harbour warehouses & semi-permanent port spaces fully equipped for harsh port and offshore environments.

Storage space at UK ports is often needed for both long-term bulk storage and port freight that needs to be transported in and out immediately. Our robust and highly efficient port warehouses not only come with site specific calculations to ensure they withstand the toughest weather conditions but will provide the required insulation to fully protect staff and goods in all seasons.

  Temporary port structures

## FAQs

### What is a temporary port warehouse?

  

 

A temporary port warehouse is a modular storage solution designed for use in ports and harbours. These structures provide a fast and flexible way to store goods, equipment, or cargo while ensuring protection from the elements. They can be installed quickly and adapted to changing storage needs.

 

 

 

### How are harbour structures constructed?

  

 

Our temporary harbour structures are built using durable anodised aluminium frames with either PVC roofs or insulated steel panel roofs and walls. This ensures strength, longevity, and weather resistance, making them suitable for harsh coastal environments for all short and long-term needs.

 

 

 

### Are port warehouses suitable for long-term use?

  

 

Yes, our port structures are designed for both [short-term](https://www.spaciotempo.co.uk/temporary-buildings/for-hire) and [long-term](https://www.spaciotempo.co.uk/temporary-buildings/for-sale) permanent applications. They can remain in place for 25+ years, providing reliable storage with the flexible benefit of being expanded, relocated, or dismantled as needed.

 

 

 

### Can harbour warehouses withstand extreme weather conditions?

  

 

Absolutely. Our harbour warehouses are engineered to handle high winds, heavy rain, and saltwater exposure. Depending on your location and requirements, we can provide additional reinforcements and insulation to protect your stored goods.

 

 

 

### Do I need planning permission for a temporary port warehouse?

  

 

In most cases, planning permission is required if the building is in place for longer than 28 days. Our team can assist with the planning application process and provide expert guidance to help you meet local requirements. You can r[ead our comprehensive guides here.](https://www.spaciotempo.co.uk/news-insights/a-guide-to-temporary-building-planning-permission)
