Document Storage Services

Storing and Accessing your Documents

Each client is allocated a dedicated document storage bay. This is the permanent location, even if items are retrieved, they will always be returned to the original location, thus minimizing the risk of lost or misplaced items. This system differentiates us from many other service providers who operate a ‘random storage’ system.

Document collections, retrievals, and deliveries can all be managed via our secure online file storage.

All deliveries & collections are performed using our fleet of liveried, tracked vehicles and uniformed drivers. All items are scanned and tracked at every stage of the process, using mobile scanners, for full traceability.

If you require immediate access to documents, they can be scanned back to you, wherever you are in the world, within 3 hours.

Wills and Deeds

Business-critical documents such as wills and deeds are stored within Durasteel, fire-resistant vaults. The vaults are humidity controlled, fully alarmed, CCTV monitored, and access is controlled via a swipe card.

The vaults have the added protection of Inergen fire suppression systems. They automatically reduce the level of oxygen in the vault to below that required to sustain combustion, and typically extinguish a fire within 40 seconds.  The gas is safe for humans and the environment, and leaves no residue.

Where individual deed packets are requested, we can arrange to deliver them within sealed crates.

Items are accessible to our clients 24 hours per day, 365 days per year, and can be delivered back the same day, the next day, or digitally available via our secure web portal.
