Yea, you'd could fix that pretty easy, just weld a spot on the side of the cabin to lock the door open , plus you'd want a way to secure the doors anyways in case of a windstorm or something.

ya.  now that i took the time too look at the finished project,.. i would definaetly want something like this  :)

It'll be a fun project.  I'm going to try and document it the same way he did, step by step.  I have a few ideas on things I will do differently but he did a heck of a nice job.  Little bigger than what I need.

Would be nice to somehow reverse lock set up so you could close and lock while inside (At least the two crates with only windows) then create an internal lock on entry panel

I'm also thinking of leaving a section in the middle between the two containers, maybe 4 feet wide.
Like a breezeway?
I would do the roof the other way as well.
You might as well do three boxes while you are building, you can never have too much space. wouldnt' cost that much extra according to your stats.

Plus it is bearproof  ;)

Another bonus!

I think 16 X 20 is plenty, although I saw two nearly new containers for sale in Liberty Lake that are 8 x 24 ea, 16 X 24, that would be a sweet size cabin.
