Security at the yard
Steel palisade fencing, PIN entry gates, ANPR, CCTV, flood lights and 24 hour security. You fit the padlock and keep the key.
Five layers between the street and your unit
Each one works on its own. Together they cover the yard 24 hours a day.
PIN entry gates
The automated gates open on your personal code. No shared keys and no waiting for staff.
ANPR at the gate
Cameras read every number plate in and out and log it against the time.
CCTV across the site
Cameras on the container stacks record the yard around the clock.
Flood lights after dark
The yard stays lit at night, so you can see your unit and the cameras can see the yard.
24 hour security
Fencing, gates and cameras are watched 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Fenced, gated, lit and watched
The yard sits behind steel palisade fencing and automated gates at 94 Vale Road. You get in with a PIN and the ANPR cameras log your vehicle. CCTV covers the site 24 hours a day and flood lights keep it bright after dark. Inside, your container closes with your own padlock.

A gated yard against a lock up or an arch
Plenty of people in North London store in a garage, a railway arch or a mate’s spare room. Here is the difference.
| What matters | Whitty Storage | Typical lock up or arch |
|---|---|---|
| Getting in | PIN entry automated gates | A shared key or a padlock on the street |
| Who comes and goes | ANPR logs every number plate | Nobody knows |
| Cameras | CCTV across the yard, 24 hours a day | Usually none |
| At night | Flood lights and 24 hour security | Dark and unattended |
| Insurance | Public liability on site, your own contents cover | Often no cover at all |
Goods are stored at the owner’s risk. Arrange your own contents insurance for what you keep in the unit.
