How VKS keeps your storage secure

Security & Access

Every container has its own high grade padlock, and you hold the only key. We do not keep a spare, so nobody opens your container but you. CCTV and flood lighting cover the site, day and night.

Simple habits that help

Keep items off the floor on pallets or battens where you can, and make sure everything goes in dry. Small steps that make a real difference over time.

Worth checking now and then

Cover furniture with breathable sheets rather than plastic, and check on your things every so often. It only takes a few minutes.

Doors built to keep people out

Each container has heavy steel doors fitted with vertical locking bars. It is a different proposition to a timber shed or a domestic garage door. Add your own padlock and the only way in is with your key.

Gravel roadway between two rows of storage containers
No open ground to cross

The containers sit in two facing rows and form the edge of the yard. There is no open ground to cross to reach your door, just the roadway between the rows.

Lit through the night

Flood lighting on poles behind the container rows keeps the roadways lit after dark. CCTV covers the site and records around the clock, so the yard feels safe whenever you visit.

24/7 ACCESS

Access whenever you need it

Open every day, day or night

You can get to your container 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. There is no booking system, no opening hours and no staff to wait for. Drive straight up to your own container door, any time you need to.

What keeps it secure

Your own padlock and your own key. We do not keep a spare, so nobody but you opens your container.

Weatherproofed, whatever the weather

Each container is fully waterproofed steel, so your things stay dry through a Suffolk winter. No damp corners and no leaks to worry about, whatever the weather is doing outside.

A few sensible rules

Keep your key somewhere safe, and tell us straight away if you lose it.

Ask us about your own contents insurance. Do not assume you are covered.

Never store anything hazardous, perishable or illegal in your container.

Every container comes with your own key, day and night access, and a site watched over by CCTV around the clock. If you have any questions about security or access, get in touch and we will talk you through it.
