You avail a storage rental to keep
your stuff safe and intact for later use but it is shocking if your things get
stolen from a supposedly secure storage facility. In America alone, many secure
storage providers are being plagued by thefts—eventually losing their clients.
Although companies claim that outsiders are the main burglars in secure storage
facilities, there are also some accounts that providers themselves try to get
inside the units to steal some items. Like in your homes, where you can have
alarm systems or ask people to watch for your home, you must also be proactive
in providing security in your storage units.
First of all, you have to find the
best secure storage facility. Choosing the best secure storage unit can be
tiring and energy intensive but it will surely pay-off if you still have your
things intact after months of storing them. You can go through online listings,
blogs, and other websites that can provide you with reviews on different
companies. You can also ask your friends who already availed a storage rental
service. Personal anecdotes are also good basis in choosing a storage unit. You
can also do an intensive research of you prospect storage rental company. You
can call them and ask your questions. In asking questions, you should be as
detailed as possible. You can ask for their documents, certifications, and
other legal proof that they are good secure storage company. You can also do a
research on their background and relationship with the local police. Police
departments should have records of stealing incidents that will surely help you
assess the security of a secure storage facility. Ultimately, you can
physically visit the storage rental facility. In this way, you can personally
check the place, the surrounding establishments, and you can have a
professional dialogue with the manager who may help you in convincing that they
have the most secure storage units.
When it comes to facilities, you
should look for an access control system in a storage rental facility.
Individual door alarms and video surveillance are also good tools in providing
high level of security in your storage facility. Individual codes or access
cards/remotes are provided to clients for the access control system. This is
effective because it makes records every time a person tries to access the
facility—so you can track the access history of your secure storage unit.
Individual door alarms and video surveillance provide immediate alert when an
unknown or sketchy person tries to access your unit. This is effective
especially during night time when people activities are less prominent.
