Good design can be the difference between a profitable self-storage business and a second-rate facility that struggles to deliver a positive return on investment.
Talented self-storage designers know how to maximise your net lettable area without compromising aisle space or restricting access to key areas. They also know how to find the right mix of large, medium and small storage units to ensure that you can always meet demand – and don’t dedicate too much space to units that will sit unused for long periods of time.
The Science Of Self Storage Design
The best self-storage specialists will even think about future-proofing your system by creating a design that incorporates protective kick plates and corner guards, modern security equipment and adaptable frames – purpose-built to accommodate removable partitions that allow maximum flexibility, should your desired unit mix change in the future.
In truth, it’s an exacting process that requires years of hands-on experience. Still, a specialist designer can turn any space into a profitable self-storage business capable of attracting and retaining many customers.
A Field-Proven Process
With over 45 years of industry experience, we’re here to help you design a facility that makes the best possible use of your space – and delivers a good return on your initial investment. Like any respectable self-storage design company, we excel at the design and fit-out of brand-new facilities; built with self-storage in mind.
In recent years, we’ve carried out standard self-storage design projects for a number of national and international brands like Shurgard, Big Yellow and Ready Steady Store.
But we’re also equally adept at transforming unconventional spaces like multi-story car parks or single-story warehouses with steeply-sloped ceilings that won’t accommodate prefabricated self-storage units. In fact, our design team relishes the opportunity to get stuck into unusual or challenging self-storage design projects, and we take great pride in our ability to deliver complex briefs that push us to think outside the box.
Whether this involves rake-cutting self-storage units, designing a unique mix that allows you to take full advantage of any unusual nooks and crannies, or building around uneven concrete floors, our long-standing industry experience and deep design knowledge make us an ideal fit for unique projects.
