Why The Lock Shield Works for Facility Owners

When Robert Hanson noticed how easily thieves were breaking into storage units by simply cutting padlocks or the slide latch, he set out to create an affordable solution that could be implemented across entire storage facilities.

Simple Benefits for Facility Owners

1. Reduce Break-ins Facility-Wide:
A cost-effective way to physically prevent the most common break-in method across your entire property.
2. Attract and Retain More Customers:
In today's competitive storage market, advertising enhanced security features helps fill vacancies and justify premium rates.
3. Minimize Liability and Insurance Costs:
Demonstrate to insurers that you've taken proactive steps to secure your facility, potentially reducing premiums and liability exposure.
4. Easy Implementation for Staff:
No specialized training required. Your existing maintenance team can install Lock Shields during regular facility walkthroughs.
5. Tenant Instructions:
For those who choose to implement the Lock Shield on all their units, all that is required is to attach the lanyard chain to the door frame. We provide a business card size instruction sheet for the next time the tenant visits their unit.

How It Works - Plain and Simple

The Lock Shield is a thick metal cover that surrounds the tenant's slide latch, and when used in conjunction with a Disc Lock, makes it nearly impossible for thieves to get their bolt cutters around the lock or latch. This creates a visible security enhancement that both deters thieves and reassures customers.
