DESIGN & BUILD

A great facility means happy customers and happy customers mean big returns.

We design and build self-storage spaces that are digital, efficient, secure, and built to last – so your investment pays off.

FACILITY DESIGN

Designed to maximise profit and reduce risk…

5% efficiency improvement = 1,250+ ft2 NLA

1,250 ft2 NLA = £30,000+ profit / annum

£30,000 profit = £500,000 Asset Value

Our Design process calculates the maximum Net Lettable Area (NLA) and combines this with the most sellable Unit Mix.

We then design a Customer Experience (CX) that will give you an advantage over your competitors.

Facilities need to be easy to manage to help you keep operating costs down.

It’s easy to forget a building site can be risky so, before the build process begins, we will create a compliant risk managed process to keep everyone safe.

The design of your Self Storage facility is crucial to your financial returns.

Small improvements can have a huge impact on profit and value.

At Storage Partners we really sweat the small stuff…
