Remote video monitoring for self storage
Self storage remote video monitoring watches your gates, aisles and outdoor storage, checks activity against access hours and follows your response plan for incidents. It suits facilities that run with limited or no on site staff.
What NightMarshal watches at self storage
Views that matter
- Access gates and keypads
- Storage aisles and corridors
- Outdoor vehicle and boat storage
- Office and perimeter fencing
Typical rules
- Gate access outside customer hours
- People in aisles after the gate closes
- Fence line activity at night
Response options
- Alert the facility or regional manager
- Speaker warning where supported
- Contact a confirmed local response partner
Good to know
- Authorized customer access needs clear rules to avoid unnecessary alerts
- Remote facilities need a dependable connection
Rules, contacts and permitted actions are agreed with you during setup. Speaker warnings and local response depend on supported equipment and confirmed coverage in your area.
Illustrative response scenario
Access hours are part of the security plan.
A vehicle remains inside after permitted access ends. The agreed exit window and contact ladder determine the next action rather than treating every late exit alike.
Actions depend on the agreed site plan.
Questions from owners and regional operations managers
Can monitoring help with repeated gate tailgating?
Agree which gate views show entry and exit and how suspected tailgating is recorded. Share relevant clips with the site owner without assuming who has valid access.
We have several unstaffed facilities. Can you cover them all?
The service is designed for that. Each facility gets its own rules and contacts, and you see incidents and camera status across every site.
Can monitoring tell whether someone is an authorized tenant?
Video alone does not prove tenancy. Where available, access records can provide context, but identity and permission checks need an agreed process.
Do you monitor inside occupied storage units?
The assessment focuses on shared access, lanes, gates and externally visible doors. Unit interiors and customer belongings require a separate privacy and access assessment.
