So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

New Technologies Involved In Self Storage Systems

By Edward Spencer

The self storage concept involves renting out segmented spaces of a huge warehouse to clients for any time span that is desired by them, no matter how short or long. As the industry has developed, self storage companies have started offering more and more novel solutions to the customers to suit their requirements better. These companies have obtained radical enhancement in self storage through the use of advanced technology.

The need for technology was realised by self storage firms primarily in order to ensure higher security of the items and to shield the goods from degradation because of the conditions inside the storage. The storage and retrieval process too was made technologically advanced at a later stage to make sure clients don't face any issue in the procedures.

You will find closed circuit cameras in any good self storage unit which guarantees a safe storage of valuables. This system enables the storage managers and guards to constantly monitor what is happening inside the warehouse and render futile any attempts of theft in the beginning itself. Besides, with other technologies like electronic door access and door alarms in place, any nuisance inside the storage premises is easily detectable.

For every single storage unit, the customers are now given an access card instead of a mechanical lock and key system. There are also biometric access systems in place in some facilities that use the hand scanning technology at main doors. Such foolproof systems are ideal for storing goods that are extremely valuable or secretive.

Some facilities have now begun using radio frequency technology to ensure even greater security of your items. In this technology, a very small RFID tag, which is barely visible to the bare eye, is attached to each one of your articles. These tags are found by scanners attached to the doors, and if there is suspicious movement of your goods, the scanners rings an alarm.

A lot of people need to store valuable items made of wood or paper. Improper atmospheric conditions inside facilities can have a destructing effect on such items. Similarly, severe heat may damage medicines and hi tech goods like television sets or cameras. Hence most storage facilities install climate control systems in the warehouse to control levels of temperature and humidity inside the units for safe storage of such delicate and precious items for a long period.

There are several other groundbreaking technologies being utilized by storage companies for better and safer storage, with their importance in the industry increasing rapidly. This is ensuring full protection and security of your valuables at affordable costs.
