The access gate is a vital part of your self-storage security system but also a potential liability. Modern products are equipped with a photoelectric sensor, aka a photo eye, that tells the gate when to open and close. If this sensitive piece of equipment is impeded or impaired, it leads to trouble for you and your customers. It could facilitate crime, vehicle damage or even personal injury. No one wants that! To keep your gate sensor functioning properly, read the pointers in this conversation thread on the Self-Storage Talk online community, where members are discussing photo-eye issues and how to avoid or resolve them. They talk about environmental factors, physical obstacles and safety hazards that create security vulnerabilities and the innovations that have proven to be successful remedies. Feel free to add your own experiences and advice!
