My 2 cents is to assign them a specific part of your uncovered yard as their assigned parking space. We have a little experience with parking spaces. Assigning them a specific area of the yard will make it clear what your expectations are and will deter them from taking a covered parking space because ...

Kathy, Something to keep in mind is that the one thing each bid has in common is they will be installing network cables and possibly setting up network antennas to provide the necessary camera coverage you need. If it's going to be wifi cameras, they need to get power from something, either batteries ...

I have been in Texas for 12 years, before that I lived in the Detroit area, the rustbelt of the USA. Rust is a cancer to metal. In my experience, there's not a lot you can do to remove the rust that will keep it gone forever. It sounds like you have the original metal roof and some screws that are rusting ...

Does anyone have a solution for permanently keeping leaves out of the gutters? There's a couple of companies that do residential gutter protectors, but I know the gutters on my self storage buildings are wider than a residential gutter. I'm going to find out if they will do commercial building gutters ...

If you're thinking of something you may have seen in a self storage magazine it was likely TrueGridPaver. The company has been around for a while and what you described so well, made me think of them. One solution that has been successful for us, is to paint dividing lines on the edge of the concrete ...

How about investing in Solar panels? The federal government is handing out 40% tax credits on the installation cost . This assumes you're using American made products that provide a 10% tax credit bonus. 30% is the standard tax credit no matter what you use. Add to this a MACRS accelerated asset depreciation ...

Milad, My company has used Janus to replace faded rollup doors that were about 20 years old. They are the only company that I know of that will give a turn key price to change out roll up doors for an entire site. They have been good to work with. They will send out a Janus rep to measure all of your ...

Ryan, We ran into the same problem a few years ago on one of our sites. We ended up having to install the fire hydrant as required even though they were not usable. You might ask how long before the city plans to have the capacity to support a fire hydrant. Maybe you can draft a document stating, "At ...

I would like to re-write my response given above. A pointed reminder to not respond to an article on a Saturday morning before my brain is fully engaged, the day really gets going and my 4 kids begin to seek out my full attention. Here is my re-write to the above questions. From what I understand, having ...

From what I understand auction listings need to be done to the letter of the law as a CYA for if ever you are challenged in court. List it in the county the business is located in. My company often lists multiple units and or locations in one long ad. Be sure to put all of the required details in the ...

I would have the county building department provide you documentation that they have adopted 2018 IBC. Then show them what the 2018 IBC says about self storage buildings and fire walls. You may need an architect who will fight for you on this one. I've run into building officials who have told me the ...
