You can pick the unit, but you can't pick the lock!
No matter which size indoor or outdoor storage unit you pick, it's equipped to receive
a special, high security cylinder lock.
(Note: For some indoor self storage units, you also have the option of choosing a padlock or disc lock instead.)
The cylinder lock is the most secure of all three types of locks. It is designed specifically for
self storage units and is flush mounted into the latch on the storage unit door. The
special design of the latch includes a bezel that fully protects the lock.
These latch features prevent the opportunity to tamper with the lock with
any sort of tools or equipment. The locks themselves use a 7-pin tumbler
system. This makes them extremely difficult to pick, even for an experienced
locksmith.
Pack it up, then P.A.C. it safe!
Your indoor self storage unit is also protected by your own Personal Access Code.
This code serves as your key to the storage facility 24 hours a day. It is directly
linked to your own self storage unit door.
When
the code is entered at the access point to the storage facilities, your storage unit (and
yours alone) is disarmed for you to open it without any alarms. It re-arms
again automatically after it has been closed.
Video surveillance Smile! You're on camera!
We have digital surveillance cameras in all entrances,
workstations, loading areas, elevators, main hallways and stairwells,
as well as outside.
We
can see the cameras' video from the office while it's streaming, as well
as monitor from remote locations when needed. The digital recording also
provides a continuous video record of all activity, that can be checked
against the timed log of the computer.
Electronic monitoring
Our computer maintains an electronic log of all access codes entered and all tenant and unit activity. The time and date stamp of the computer log allows us to compare it with the timing on the video record made by our surveillance cameras.
Security means... you can relax!
With all of
these high security features in place, you can be assured our self
storage facilities are fully equipped for protection. So relax! Your
belongings are safe and secure.
You can check up on your belongings whenever you want. We recommend a monthly check, just so you can report any problems right away, in the unlikely event anything unexpected should occur.
P.S. There's more to protection than security
All our indoor storage rental units are also climate controlled for extra protection against potentially damaging heat, cold and humidity. Find out whether the best choice for your own storage needs might be climate controlled storage.
Protecting your belongings also depends on how well you've packed and stacked them. See our packing, moving and storage tips for helpful advice.
Our BigBox Mobile storage has security features as well. Find out more to compare your storage options.
