CLIENT BACKGROUND
Go 2 Storage, a new entrant in the UK's self-storage industry, sought to differentiate itself by creating the country's first fully unmanned container self-storage facility. Located in Bristol, with aspirations to expand with further sites, their goal was to combine convenience with top-tier security.

The absence of on-site staff at Go 2 Storage presented a unique set of security challenges. The client needed a comprehensive, proactive security solution that could:

Integrate with cutting-edge technology like the Janus Noke locking system.
-
Detect security threats accurately and immediately.
-
Provide real-time, automated access control and monitoring.
-
Deliver personalised security interventions when necessary.

-
AI-Based Detection: Advanced video analytics technology analyses footage in real-time, identifying potential security threats with precision.

-
Office alarm system: The on site office is additionally protected by an intruder alarm system which is armed and disarmed as and when access is needed. Also fully monitored by MYNET.
