SINGLE-STORY SELF-STORAGE

Drive-up storage facilities with the lowest cost per rentable square foot and the simplest operations

Overview

The Workhorse Format

Single-story drive-up self-storage is the workhorse of the industry. Lower cost per rentable square foot, simpler operations, faster build, and proven demand in nearly every market segment. When land economics support it, single-story usually wins.

We design for the dollar-per-NRSF target your pro forma requires. Building geometry, drive aisle widths, and unit modules tuned to your specific site and market.

The advantage

Every decision evaluated against the pro forma. One team, one accountability path, one schedule from concept through certificate of occupancy.

Lowest Build Cost

Single-story drive-up typically runs $30 to $55 per rentable square foot, the most efficient cost basis in self-storage.

Tenant-Friendly Access

Drive-up units mean tenants pull right up, load directly, and leave. No carts, no elevators, no hallways.

Simple Operations

No HVAC zones, no elevators, no interior corridors to maintain. Lower opex over the asset life.

Phaseable Builds

Single-story facilities expand naturally. Add bays as demand absorbs supply, without re-engineering the original structure.

Site-Adaptive

Building strings can be configured to fit irregular parcels and maximize NRSF on the available land.

Faster to Revenue

6 to 9 months typical from groundbreaking to certificate of occupancy on a clean site.
