Storelocal in Hercules, CA Takes Technology and Customer Service to New Levels

Storelocal has broken new ground in Hercules, California!  As the only self-storage facility in the city limits of Hercules, this facility – owned by The Claremont Group and operating under the Storelocal Brand – is getting a lot of attention!

The grand opening was a festive event filled with community support, champagne, gift baskets, and more. Check out the video below.

Investing in Self Storage Technology

Self storage facilities, once slow to adapt to technology, have begun to embrace it. When a storage facility adapts automated access control, it gives tenants the power to open doors—literally. This creates a seamless experience for tenants and makes life easier for owners and managers. For self storage operators looking to introduce automation to their facilities, the Noke® Smart Entry System from Janus International makes it possible to deliver easy-to-use access control solutions that exceed the expectations of even the most technology-obsessed customers. That's exactly what Storelocal Hercules has done.

"It’s one of the most technically advanced storage facilities that’s ever been built," says Ryan Lorenzini, Director at the Claremont Companies. "We have state-of-the-art software and access control so you can enter your unit using your smartphone…. you can also verify your identity and sign your lease on your smartphone…”

Investing in Storelocal Protection

Another benefit the Hercules, CA facility offers tenants is Storelocal Protection. The Storelocal Protection Program is tailored to the needs of owners and their tenants, offering independent self storage owners significant profit potential while giving their customers peace of mind. With the Storelocal Protection Program, members keep 70% of the revenue they collect from tenants who choose protection, regardless of how many stores they have (facilities with the Nokē Smart Entry System keep 75% of the revenue).

Investing in the Community

Of course, it's not all about the tech or the protection. The new Storelocal facility in Hercules, CA is also invested in the community, making a donation of $1,000 to the Hercules Education Foundation. This nonprofit organization's mission is to assist and enhance educational opportunities for students in Hercules public schools. Engaging with the community and giving back is a great way to market your self storage business and build rapport with locals, and Storelocal Hercules is a shining example of that!
