Self storage is an American concept aimed at providing secure, affordable, individual storage units for business and household customers alike. It has become a rapidly expanding industry throughout Europe as business and domestic customers recognise the benefits of cheap, accessible, and most importantly secure storage space.

Business's who are currently using valuable office storage space for archived documents etc.

Our friendly, well trained staff will assist you in ensuring you hire the correct unit for your needs – we will not rent you a unit that is too big or small for your requirements and can advise you on packing techniques / equipment to ensure your goods are adequately protected during storage / transit. We sell a comprehensive range of packing and protective equipment from flat packed boxes and tape to mattress covers and bubble wrap.

The whole purpose of using Anchor Self Storage is the fact that you know your goods are stored in a dry, secure environment, under lock and key. As part of the process of hiring a unit from us we require all customers to provide us with two forms of identification – one of which must have a photograph i.e. photo drivers license or passport plus a utility bill but not a mobile phone bill. Failure to provide this documentation will result in us being unable to hire a unit to you, as all customers are issued with a swipe card allowing them access into the storage facility. We also have an intercom device which connects directly to our security services to ensure peace of mind with all of our customers.

In addition to our stringent customer identification process your goods are protected by the following methods:-

Customer swipe in/out system

Existing customers must swipe their card prior to entering and leaving the storage area. This system is linked to the individual unit door alarms and will alert us if somebody attempts to gain entry to a unit whilst the hirer is not on site. In the unlikely event of a fire, this system will also tell our staff who is in the building and in what area of the facility they are situated.

Personal customer padlocks

All customers are responsible for the padlocks securing their units

Dual burglar alarm
The entire storage facility is protected by 24 hour on-site Security with CCTV.
All individual units are fitted with a door alarm linked to our card swipe system to ensure nobody can tamper with the door of your unit while you are not on site. Both alarm systems are constantly monitored during business hours from our reception area and remotely, from off-site outside of business hours.

Fire alarms
The entire building is fitted with state-of-the-art fire and smoke detectors linked directly to our on site response team.

Intercom / customer help stations
Our internal intercom system incorporates wall mounted base stations on all floors – allowing customers to contact staff in reception in the event of a query or problem whilst in the storage facility.
