ABC’s Innovative Climate Control Capabilities

Climate control offers many benefits to the self storage customer, including preventing damage from elements such as moisture build-up, mold and mildew, and corrosion. By offering climate control, this enables a facility to capture a broader market share than ever, giving an edge over the competition and therefore boosting the facility’s profits. Climate control can be the deciding factor in a customer’s decision to choose one facility over another and it can help draw commercial tenants, who typically stay longer than their residential counterparts. Climate control also serves as a draw for new customers who have never used storage because it lends a sense of security.

Don’t build out. Build up.

As the self storage industry has matured, the demand for multi-story projects has increased. Factors contributing to this growth include decreasing availability of land, rising land costs, the rise in demand for climate-controlled space and planning and zoning requirements.

ABC’s multi-story facilities provide more square footage in a smaller space. These complex units, which are typically 2-3 stories high, can be built on the side of a hill or on land where a standard facility would not be possible. Building multi-story facilities is a specialty. Not all metal building suppliers are properly qualified to erect these structures.

ABC takes self storage to a whole new level with SmartKote

Multi-story units and state-of-the-art climate control are only the beginning. Our self storage units are now built with panels coated in SmartKote paints, which use technology originally developed for Stealth Aircraft in the U.S. Military to increase energy savings and promote cooler interior spaces. With SmartKote painted panels, units are cooled from the outside in, so interior cooling systems don’t have to work as hard, thus saving energy and money. ABC has made the change to SmartKote painted panels as part of our company-wide commitment to making the best buildings, to making them longer lasting, more economical and more eco-friendly.

ABC’s AISC-MB certification gives us a 3rd-party endorsement you can count on. Through our Authorized Builder Network, we’ll guide you through every step of the process, including custom design, engineering and controlled manufacturing. All of these processes are AISC-MB certified for integrated quality, which reduces construction time and maintenance.
