As our reliance on smartphones continues to grow, mobile accessibility presents numerous opportunities for self-storage operations. Forward-thinking owners and operators are increasingly utilizing mobile capabilities to enhance the rental experience for tenants. Additionally, they are using handheld devices for access control across their properties, which provides greater freedom and flexibility for management. Whether you aim to improve customer convenience or boost employee productivity, mobile solutions from PTI Security Systems™ are designed to expand your access control capabilities. |
In today’s self-storage market, security is not just a feature — it’s a competitive advantage. While perimeter fencing and video surveillance are essential, true peace of mind comes from knowing that each unit is individually protected. That’s where PTI’s individual door alarms and smart locks come in. Investing in individual unit security isn’t just about protecting property — it’s about building trust. Facilities equipped with PTI’s smart security solutions consistently attract quality tenants and command premium rates. It’s a smart way to differentiate your business in a crowded market. |

These keypads are highly customizable. Depending on the model chosen, operators can equip them with features such as card readers, intercoms, cameras, and more.

A simple handshake between the Bluetooth receiver and any paired device allows for user access, providing owners and operators the option to permit only Bluetooth devices on the property during specific hours |
An access control system is an integral part of any self-storage security strategy. It integrates with your property management system to ensure that only paying customers are able to access the property and their units.

Door alarms significantly enhance the security of individual storage units by enabling the monitoring and response to door activity. This feature is crucial for protecting tenants' belongings and bolstering the overall security reputation of your facility. Current tenants will appreciate the added protection, while potential customers will be attracted by the enhanced security features, making your facility more competitive in the market. Facilities equipped with door alarms typically command higher rental rates compared to those without such measures. In addition to increasing rental income, door alarms reduce the risk of theft and unauthorized access. PTI Security Systems door alarms have set a high standard in the industry, known for their exceptional value, straightforward installation, and durable construction, making them a preferred choice for facility owners looking to improve security. |
