From Groundwork to Greatness: Guardian Storage Starts Strong with Nokē Smart Entry

Building this facility was anything but ordinary. Located just off the bustling Star City Bridge in Morgantown, West Virginia, Guardian Storage set out to pair advanced smart technology with its signature hospitality‑driven service model. The result: a three‑story, 88,000‑square‑foot modern storage facility featuring 757 units — all powered by Nokē Smart Entry technology. Customers enjoy seamless, mobile-first access, while the Guardian team benefits from enhanced visibility, oversight, and operational efficiency.

Facility Highlights

• 88,000 rentable square feet across 757 units
• 100% Nokē Smart Entry for mobile access, monitoring, and digital key sharing
• Janus doors, hallway systems, and integrated smart entry for a streamlined build
• Climate-controlled units, including 52 drive‑up climate-controlled spaces
