A strong sense of safety and security is the cornerstone of any trusted self-storage facility. Your customers are looking for that high comfort level which you need to provide via a powerful system that can prevent crime as well as detect it as soon as an incident occurs. This means partnering with a security provider who understands the dynamic needs of your business and who can design, implement and monitor the most effective security system custom tailored to your needs. Threats to Self-Storage Security Common threats to self-storage facilities include theft, fire, break-ins and even abuse from the very customers renting units. Thieves are known to target on-site offices as well as the rental units. As self-storage facilities do not have employees working 24/7, the entire facility is at risk if a security system is not part of the foundation of how you run your business. Access Control for Self-Storage Facilities While smaller self-storage facilities may have open access to all units, larger multi floor facilities benefit from access control to ensure that paying customers have the access they need to their units while preventing all others from gaining entrance. With a modern access control system, you can monitor all activity entering and leaving your premises as well as control which employees and customers have access to which areas of your property, and when. Modern self-storage facilities use keypads, keycards, and blue tooth connections as their access control at entrances and exits, both for pedestrian and vehicle access. Giving your customers a unique credential that allows access to your facility during operating hours also gives you the ability to disable a specific customer's access at any time should they become unwelcome. Some facilities even have access control on each self-storage unit on the premises. If any criminal activity were to occur, access control systems can record who gained access at the time of the event. If you suspect a customer of abuse, such as attempting to live in one of your units, access control that monitors when a client enters and exits can help you prove your claim. Video Surveillance for Self-Storage Facilities Video cameras function as a powerful deterrent to potential thieves or vandals as surveillance serves in preventing as well as catching wrongdoers. With well-positioned video cameras throughout your facility, you can monitor everyone coming and going at all times. If a burglar is able to tailgate their way into your facility behind one of your customers, you need a way to record all of their activity on your site. With a well-designed network of surveillance cameras placed throughout your facility you can record the faces and license plates of anyone who attempts to illegally enter or break in. Alarm Systems An alarm system can alert authorities immediately should an intruder attempt to gain access to your business and can be set up to monitor doors and windows of indoor spaces. Depending on the level of criminal activity in your area you may want to consider installing alarms and automatic locks on storage unit doors. Fire and carbon monoxide alarm systems should also be in place to detect those environmental threats to your units. Environmental Monitoring If your facility offers temperature-controlled storage units then you need a system to ensure it will alert you to any interior climate deviations. You will want to have environmental sensors that can offer monitoring to catch any significant changes in temperature or humidity. You will also need to secure all entry points and doors leading into the areas that offer temperature-controlled units. Expert Design and Installation The key to an effective self-storage facility security system is not just in designing something comprehensive but combining that with professional 24/7 monitoring. You want a company who will stay with you beyond just the design and installation phases of implementing your new security system. If a security threat were to occur at your facility, you will be relieved to have a professional 24/7 security monitoring company there to help you alert the proper authorities.
