Fold out houses create a wider usable floor plan by folding their side sections inward for transport and opening them at the installation site. This 20ft expandable container house is based on YJD's standard double-wing configuration, with layout and finish options for residential, guest accommodation, and project use.
Its reference expanded footprint is approximately 5.90 m × 6.27 m. The folded transport width is approximately 2.20 m. Use the dimensions below as a starting point for site and logistics planning; the approved drawing and order specification define the exact configuration.
The figures below are taken from YJD's 20ft standard double-wing specification sheet. External footprint and internal clear dimensions are listed separately because they serve different planning needs.
| Specification | Reference dimension or detail | Planning use |
|---|---|---|
| Expanded external dimensions | 5,900 × 6,270 × 2,480 mm Side/eave height noted as 2,180 mm |
Estimate the opened footprint and site clearance |
| Internal dimensions | 5,640 × 6,110 × 2,240 mm Side/eave height noted as 2,060 mm |
Plan furniture, partitions, and circulation |
| Folded transport dimensions | 5,900 × 2,200 × 2,480 mm | Review loading, route access, and unloading space |
| Listed reference weight | 2,500 kg | Coordinate lifting equipment and foundation/site preparation |
| Layout examples | Open-plan, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, or 3-bedroom arrangements | Final room arrangement depends on the selected plan and scope |
These are reference figures for the 20ft standard double-wing model, not a substitute for the final production drawing. Confirm the selected layout and options on the order specification.
The 20ft reference specification uses a galvanized steel frame with Q235B steel members. Main beams are listed as 80 × 100 × 2.5 mm, while secondary frame members use different sections according to their location and function.

Configure the house around the intended occupancy, climate, local electrical requirements, and project budget. The following items are options rather than a promise that every unit includes them.
In transport configuration, the side sections are folded inward. At the destination, the unit is positioned on a prepared, level support base and opened according to the supplied installation instructions. The actual lifting, unfolding, fixing, and utility-connection steps depend on the delivered configuration and site conditions.
