On Lockdown: The Best Lock for Your Unit


A reputable self storage facility will have 24-hour security, lighting, and video monitoring to deter theives. But when you choose mobile storage, the level of security is up to you.

Most versions retail for under $25 and feature a hardened steel shackle, a double-bolted locking mechanism, and anti-pick pins.
