Uniquely Coded Exeter Self Storage Units

Renting a room and need extra storage? Or, renovating your home and needing self storage? You can keep your belongings safe and secure in one of our storage units until you need them again.
All of our storage units are high-quality steel containers with uniquely coded proximity key fobs, completely inaccessible to anyone without a key. This ensures that only authorised people are able to gain entry to the unit. So, our customers can come and go as they need, accessing their belongings with ease using their own key fob during our opening hours of 8am to 8pm during the weekends and 7am until 9pm on weekdays.

Anti-Theft Locking Systems

At Your Store Exeter, we work hard to ensure all of our units and customer belongings are highly secure. Every unit is secured with a 4-lever high locking mechanism to prevent theft and even has specialist anti-tamper locking boxes fitted. This means that from the moment you lock your unit to the moment you access it again, it will be absolutely secure, along with the contents within it.

Make Sure Your Items Are Packed Properly

Our Exeter storage units are great for storing almost anything from household to commercial items, however, there are certain things which you can’t store. See our blog post: ‘what you can and can’t store at Exeter unit storage unit’ for more information. Our on-site staff and considerable self storage security preparations are designed to ensure that your belongings are safe from theft or damage inflicted by others, no matter how long they’re with us. We put necessary security measures in place for protecting items against self storage damage including breakages and decay.

Taking the time to pack fragile items for self storage properly with bubble wrap and securely taped boxes can make all the difference when it comes to picking up your items in the same condition that they were dropped off it. In addition, making sure that there is no wet or damp lingering in your fabrics or the cardboard boxes themselves can prevent mould from creeping into your belongings. See our article ‘Our 10 steps for packing your items for self storage‘. For a full explanation of how to prevent unwanted breakages and decay in your self storage unit, check out our article on ‘protecting items against self-storage damage’.
