Financial records have to be kept for six years, and six years of files take a lot of office floor. An archive unit costs a fraction of the same space in an office, and you can still get to a single file the same morning.

Set up for finding things

We fit steel shelving to your plan before you move in, five shelves to a bay. Reception sells archive boxes with a printed label panel, and we suggest a simple number-and-year system that we explain in the packing guides.

Dry and logged

Archive units are on the inner rows, away from outside walls, where the temperature holds steady through the year. The gate records every PIN entry, so if you need to show who visited and when, we can send you the log for your unit.

Good for

  • Accountants, solicitors and surveyors
  • Landlords’ tenancy files and inventories
  • Clubs and charities keeping minutes and records
