A Tradesman Needs Secure Storage

Are you a professional labourer? A seasoned handyman? Maybe even just an honest weekend warrior? If any of these titles describes you, you will no doubt be the owner of numerous tools.

Secure Tradesman Storage

Power tools, hand tools, tools for your car, tools for your guitar, tools for your bikes, tools of all stripes, you are likely in possession of thousands of dollars of worth of tools. Regardless of your reasons for having so many tools, one problem unites all tool-owners, and that is the question of how to store them.

Monthly Storage

As our cities become more dense and centralized, it is becoming harder and harder for those with tools to store them at home. Some homeowners do have the luxury of a large and spacious garage, or of a detached shed. Even so, this may not be the safest option. Many homeowners have their garages and sheds broken into because there is where one is likely to find those most valuable items. Storing those tools for a small monthly fee can provide unmatched security and peace of mind.

For many people, however, storing their tools at home is not even an option. For reasons of space, many are forced to find less convenient storage solutions. This includes those who live in an apartment or townhouse, or those who simply have such a sheer number of tools that only an external storage solution can work for them. For those tools used only on a seasonal basis, such as lawnmowers or snow plows, storing them away for half the year can also provide unbridled convenience and security. Even if your abode possesses enough room to store all your tools, you may yet want to store them externally for reasons of organization. This would leave your garage or shed clutter free and available to be used for other purposes.

This is inexpensive storage that operates 100% as advertised - they do not offer 24/7 access and do not charge 24/7 access pricing. They are incredibly responsive to requests to unlock doors and provide access. It is not fancy but if you need a clean, dry place to store your stuff, you can't beat these guys. Don't expect bells and/or whistles but you also won't be paying for them.

Have to phone to have buildings unlocked. Annoying.

Prices are 1/2 the price of other storage units but it shuts down (locked gates) from 10 am - 6 pm except if you have the enormous ground level outside facing units. Those hours are impossible. The technology getting items up to the second story is an actual forklift thats made stationary. You balance your items up the forklift (and you raise the wooden pallet up yourself) Then you must walk up stairs and hope their is a dolly available to wind precariously around tiny turning hallways. Budget carpentry and ancient carpet in the units. The trolleys sound and feel like their from 1980's and are either coached to disobey or they keep their own counsel. They say its secure but I had a neighbor pick something up and they weren't even asked for permission. I explicitly stated only I was to have access. They said they do not let it happen. The locks are your own, but the flip closure is attached by 3/4 wood screws easily and possibly quite quietly could be opened and emptied with no one batting an eye. A kid could detach it with anything. They have "24 hour security" which means a guy lives on site. Does he/she have CCTV access? Probably not, nor would you want that job. Are there motion sensors? Not likely as sometimes the lights won't turn on and finding a switch in the straggly wandering corridors is impossible. They do not offer insurance. You have to sign forms saying all the things you will and won't do, but they are not liable if anything happens: theft, fire, water, vandals, pests etcSo despite all those complaints, its still 4/5 only because of the prices.
