Can patrol detect a break-in the same night it happens?

Photographed lock-line checks are what make that possible. A cut or swapped lock is visible on the pass, gets reported that night with the unit number, and the tenant hears from you before they discover it themselves — which is a very different customer conversation.

What do you do if someone appears to be living in a unit?

We document indicators with dated photos and report them; we do not confront a tenant over occupancy. That documentation is what supports your notice process, and it flags the fire risk before it becomes an incident.

Do you cover facilities with keypad gates and camera systems?

Yes, and patrol complements both. Cameras record and gates log, but neither one interrupts a theft in progress. A marked unit in the aisle does.

How many passes should a storage facility buy?

Most start at three to four randomized overnight passes and adjust after the first month of reports. Larger multi-building sites usually need more aisle time per pass rather than more passes.

What we have learned about self-storage overnight security

Storage theft is almost always inside the gate. Someone with a valid code enters legitimately and works the aisles, cutting locks on units that show low traffic. Gate logs prove an entry happened but not what happened after it — which is why documented drive-aisle passes with photographed lock lines are worth more than a gate report.

Occupancy is the second problem, and it is a liability problem more than a theft one. Extension cords, space heaters, and someone sleeping in a unit turn a storage facility into a fire and habitability exposure. Consistent overnight presence identifies the pattern early, with dated photo evidence that supports the notice and eviction process.
