Do you have any questions about Expandable products and how to use them? We've compiled the questions we get asked the most and answered them. If your question isn't on here, please reach out.
How much space is available inside the expanded unit?
The interior workspace varies depending on the model, but once fully deployed, each unit offers a significantly larger footprint than its transport size. Most layouts comfortably support multiple workstations, equipment zones, and meeting space. Exact dimensions are from 60 square meters to 25 square meters.
Can I relocate the mobile command center frequently?
Yes. The unit is designed for frequent relocation, making it ideal for missions that require mobility. Its compact transport size and robust build allow for reliable transport over long distances and varied terrain. It's packed and ready in 15 minutes by one person. This also makes it super easy to relocate.
Is the mobile command center insulated and climate controlled?
Absolutely. Every unit can be equipped with insulation and can be HVAC-ready to ensure a comfortable working environment in both hot and cold conditions. The HVAC system can be installed by your third-party interior partner or integrated by Expandable on request.
Can the unit be used off-grid?
Yes, it can be configured for off-grid use. The unit supports generator input and battery systems, and the electrical setup is ready for integration with renewable energy solutions, depending on your project needs.
