How Storage Facilities Keep Your Belongings Safe & Secure


Self storage facilities are the perfect place to put your belongings when you don’t quite know what you want to do with them. If you’re moving house, downsizing your abode, or relocating your office premises, you may find that you don’t have enough storage space on your own private property. In these situations, renting a storage unit can allow you to declutter whilst still holding onto items that you might wish to return to in the future.

When renting a storage space, you’ll want to know that your prized possessions are entirely safe and secure. This is why storage facilities tend to provide comprehensive security to protect their units, so you can store your belongings with your peace of mind intact. Read on to find out about some of the ways that self storage facilities make sure that their units are entirely secure.

On Site Security 

Many self storage facilities will employ on site security staff to provide round the clock protection to their units. This professional team will monitor entrances and exits, making sure that the storage facility is entirely secure at all times. They will also prohibit unauthorised persons from accessing the site.

Monitored CCTV 

Most storage facilities will also have CCTV installed across the site to ensure that any intruders can be identified and detained quickly. These cameras should be monitored at all hours to provide maximum security to the site, where visible surveillance technology can also act as an effective deterrent.

Fire & Intruder Alarms

Effective alarm systems are another way that storage facilities work to protect your belongings. State of the art fire and intruder detection alarms help on site staff to quickly recognise any issues, whilst some facilities will also be equipped with damp and flood prevention systems.

Optional Insurance Cover

Lots of self storage companies also offer their clients the opportunity to further protect their belongings with insurance cover. This can provide an added layer of security just in case of an unprecedented break in, where these policies are often more affordable when obtained directly from the storage facility.
