MyLock systems for self-storage

MyLock develops its full range of smart locks in-house — from access panels at the entrance to wireless padlocks on individual units. A facility with 2500+ units like Cobalt Box typically combines an XED entry panel with Xbb or Zbb box-door locks, all managed from one back-end.

Frequently asked questions

Is MyLock suitable for every type of self-storage location?

Yes. MyLock is deployed at compact urban facilities, container-based sites and large multi-floor complexes alike. The system scales from a handful of units up to several thousand on a single back-end — Cobalt Box runs 2500+ units.

Can MyLock replace existing locks?

Yes. Most MyLock devices are suitable for retrofit: they replace the existing mechanical locks or padlocks on your current doors, with no modification to the doors themselves. The Zbb is fully wireless and fits easily on virtually any roller or hinged storage door.

How do tenants open their unit?

Tenants get access through the MyLock app, a PIN code, or both side by side. The operator decides which methods are enabled per location.

Does MyLock integrate with self-storage management software?

Yes. MyLock connects to common self-storage and booking platforms via API, so unit assignments, payments and access rights stay in sync automatically.
