SOUND FAMILIAR?

Problems storage sites face

ACCESS REVOKING HEADACHE

End of rental access removal is difficult to manage

With pin codes & remotes, staff need to manually revoke access after a customer ends their storage rental, easily allowing for mistakes or even forgetting altogether. This creates security risks for the site owner and other customers while creating unnecessary administration.

POOR SECURITY & ACCOUNTABILITY

Remotes & pin codes can be shared

Gate remotes can be lost, stolen and even copied, while keypad PIN codes are easily spread without permission. This makes controlling access difficult, with little visibility over who opened the gate and no accountability across your storage site.

COSTLY STAFF ADMIN TIME

Staff time wasted managing old gate controllers

Adding new customers, changing PINs, replacing lost remotes and removing former tenants all take time. As customer turnover increases, so does the administrative workload, making it harder to operate sites efficiently without additional staff.

A SIMPLER WAY TO MANAGE ACCESS

How does digiGate help?

Take the administration, security concerns and site visits out of managing your electric gate. digiGate gives you full control over all users, easily managed in one console.

1

Revoke access instantly when required

With digiGate you can setup a rental period where access either expires automatically after a date or manually at the click of a button. With access being digital, this means changes take effect immediately and your site is secured. Rentals can be extended or reactivated at any time.

2

Replace shared remotes and PINs with digital access

Give customers individual digital accounts instead of relying on shared gate remotes or keypad PINs. You choose who can enter, with configurable access permissions and a clear history of gate activity via the management console.

Explore the digiGate API where you can link customer rentals with gate access. Missed payments can result in immediate gate access removal which can be reactivated again anytime. No manual admin, saving your staff countless hours and reducing mistakes.

"Traffic into the sites has been significantly improved"

Davis Trackhire replaced old analog gate controls with the digiGate mobile app & call to open feature for drivers. This helped the flow of traffic while increasing security with the full access log of entries.

Challenge

Slow entry for drivers without access or waiting to be let into the site.

Solution

Simple vehicle entry via mobile app & call to open, with centralised access control management.

Result

Easier access for drivers, less admin for staff & tighter site security.

STORAGE SITE QUESTIONS

Storage site access control FAQs

Can customers receive self storage gate access before they arrive?

Yes. An authorised administrator can create an account remotely, send a registration invitation and set when permission starts. Digital access avoids handing over a physical remote or sharing a pin code for every user.

Can digiGate connect to our self storage rental software?

Yes. The Enterprise booking system API supports commissioned integrations. We check your software, available events and access rules, then complete a project with you to fully integrate.

Can access end when a rental finishes?

Yes. Set an end date in advance or revoke the permission remotely when required.
A system link via the digiGate API can automatically sync access with storage site customer accounts. Missed payments, early termination & end of rental agreements mean site access being revoked automatically.

See user permissions.

Can we audit customers who still have gate access?

digiGate supports account exports and dormant-user reporting. Compare accounts with active rentals, then remove permissions that are no longer needed, all via the online management console.

Can customers use hired vans or change their number plate?

An authorised administrator can update the approved plate. Mobile app or call to open access may be more suitable for customers with frequent vehicle changes.

What happens if the internet connection goes down?

ANPR can continue locally as long as there's power to the site. For unmanned sites or rural areas with intermittent Internet, we can help setup fallback options where LTE (4G/5G) networks are used in the event of an Internet failure.

Will digiGate work with our existing gates or barriers?

Yes. We guarantee digiGate will work on any electric gate or barrier. See our compatibility list for the most popular brands we have worked on in the past.
