Ask anyone in the self-storage industry what their biggest concern is today, and most of us will list break-ins at or near the top of the list after seeing a rise in criminal activity at facilities over the last 5 years. In fact, according to a recent survey by Janus International, 85% of self-storage owner-operators say that theft and break-ins are top of mind, and 57% report that they’re dealing with repeated break-ins. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

With cutting-edge technologies and services, you can address vulnerabilities at your facility to bolster security and protect not only your property but, most importantly, your employees and tenants.

And you also know by the headline of this blog that we also offer gates and gate service. But that’s just the beginning of this exciting chapter in the world of Access Control Technologies.
