Instant Home™: A Revolutionary Solution
As the world continues to move at an ever-increasing pace, the demand for versatile and portable solutions is at an all-time high. This is where Instant Home™, a groundbreaking product line by Universal Storage Containers, comes into play. These convenient products address the demand for quick shelter solutions, serving a wide array of applications from instant offices and homes to pop-up community spaces.
Instant Home™ exemplifies modern design, achieved through the combination of cutting-edge technologies, top-tier materials, and a profound comprehension of client requirements. It provides a seamless blend of functionality, speed, and adaptability, making it an ideal solution for those in need of instant, portable shelter solutions.
Incombustible Materials and Insulation
Safety forms the bedrock of Instant Home™ products. The construction materials are incombustible, featuring powder-coated steel for increased safety. This not only provides a robust, corrosion-resistant layer, but it also ensures that Instant Home™ stands firm even in the face of adversity.
Alongside its robust construction, Instant Home™ employs R-14 polyiso insulation that surpasses state fire codes in safety, unlike the commonly used polystyrene by competitors. This high-performance thermal regulation notably boosts the safety and efficiency of Instant Home™ products, positioning them as a preferable choice for immediate shelter solutions.
Standard Features and Customization
Instant Home™ products come equipped with a range of standard features tailored to the varied requirements of users. These features, available in stock, include:
- 4 or 8 windows that meet egress codes
- Forklift pockets for portability
- Shelving
- 1 or 2 lockable doors
Instant Home™ leaves no stone unturned in ensuring you have everything you need in your instant space.
Another distinguishing characteristic of Instant Home™ is its customization feature. You can choose from a variety of color options and textures for powder coating on steel, allowing your Instant Home™ to blend seamlessly with its environment or match your company branding.
This level of customization extends to the Instant Pot 160-2™ model, which features a removable insulated center partition wall for added versatility.
Comparing Instant Home™ to Competitors
In the realm of portable shelter solutions, not every product is on par. Instant Home™ rises above the competition with its superior features in:
- Fire safety
- Egress compliance
- Square footage
- Roof and wind load resistance
- Material quality
- Durability
- Functionality
Instant Home™ units aim not only to provide shelter but to excel in doing so. With construction materials and design features that enhance fire safety and fully comply with egress code requirements, Instant Home™ sets a high bar that competitors struggle to reach. Moreover, by meeting state-specific IECC codes, Instant Home™ ensures optimal insulation and energy conservation, offering a value proposition that competitors simply cannot match.
Superior Fire Safety
Superior fire safety is one of the defining features of Instant Home™ products. This is achieved through the use of incombustible materials such as steel for interior and exterior cladding, setting Instant Home™ apart from competitors who often use highly combustible materials.
Fire-resistant building materials, such as:
- fire-retardant insulation
- treated wood
- double-pane or tempered glass for windows and doors
- non-flammable materials like fiber-cement or brick for siding
Integral to the safety and security of Instant Home™, these specialized fire safety features provide superior fire protection, ensuring you can confidently protect your belongings and loved ones no matter where you set up your Instant Home™.
Meeting Egress Code Requirements
Egress windows are vital for home safety, offering a crucial escape route during emergencies. All windows in Instant Home™ models are designed to meet egress code requirements, offering safe exits in case of an emergency. This feature enhances the safety and livability of Instant Home™ products, ensuring that you can use them with complete peace of mind.
Unlike competitors who may choose larger, less resilient windows, Instant Home™ may opt for smaller egress windows that are better at withstanding damage during fires, staying within egress code guidelines. This commitment to safety and compliance is just another way in which Instant Home™ goes above and beyond to ensure the best for its users.
Quick Assembly and Portability
In our rapidly evolving world, swift setup and teardown have become indispensable. Instant Home™ shines in this regard, with the ability to be assembled or disassembled in less than 30 minutes. This quick and portable nature of Instant Home™ products makes them a preferred choice for those who value convenience and efficiency.
Moreover, Universal Storage Containers provides comprehensive installation services, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free setup process. From receiving and unloading to unpacking and assembling, every step is taken care of by the experts. Additionally, USC offers training services, which include instructing workers on the efficient assembly of the Instant Home™, ensuring a smooth installation process.
Enhanced Structural Capabilities
Instant Home™ models are engineered for remarkable stability and durability, underlining their structural integrity. Each model supports a 50 psf roof load and can withstand winds up to 170 mph without any additional charges. This is a testament to the robust design and superior quality of materials used in the construction of Instant Home™ products.
All models of Instant Home™ come with the following features:
- Integral 6” structural base, which adds to the strength and stability of the structure
- Saves customers the additional cost and effort of constructing a separate base
- Makes Instant Home™ a more cost-effective and hassle-free solution.
Expanding Living Space Options
A significant advantage of Instant Home™ products is the expanded living space they offer in comparison to typical canopy alternatives employed for portable living spaces. This larger square footage leads to a more spacious and comfortable living environment, benefiting those who live in them long term or may have more extensive space needs.
The benefits of Instant Home™ include:
- Greater flexibility in interior design
- Accommodation of more occupants
- Ability to host larger gatherings
- Setting up a temporary office, a community center, or a home away from home

Adapting to State IECC Codes
In line with its pledge to deliver top-quality and compliant products, Instant Home™ is capable of complying with all State IECC codes. This ensures optimal insulation and energy conservation, setting it apart from competitors who do not provide this option.
The use of R-14 polyiso insulation in Instant Home™ contributes to its compliance with stringent IECC codes due to the material’s high R-value and effectiveness in preventing heat transfer. Additionally, REScheck, a software application designed to help demonstrate compliance with IECC codes, facilitates the adaptation of Instant Home™ units to meet varying regulations across different regions, further establishing Instant Home™ as a leader in the portable shelter solutions market.
