Project Summary

Farmer Robert Cooks had diversified into self storage on his land in 2007 when his farming work became unprofitable, by converting his former cattle shed. A few years later, due to customer demand, he wanted to add an extension to the facility so selected four companies, including Kuboid, from an industry magazine and got in touch. Kuboid impressed him the most due to the high level of experience and the can-do attitude of the team

Kuboid conducted a site survey and designed a self storage solution to maximise the available space for the best return. This included the various unit sizes and partition system, positioning of mezzanines and stairs, fire regulations, automatic lighting and security. Each unit is alarmed and customers have their own keypad number for 24/7 access. Robert was impressed by the team’s commitment to delivering the job to the highest quality and on schedule.

Today Arden Self Storage is 100% let and is generating a far higher return on investment compared to farming. Robert says he and his wife have a much better quality of life, with weekends and bank holidays freed up. The financial security has put his family in good stead for the next two generations.

"I would recommend Kuboid. What they say they will deliver in time, help, price. They stick to what they say. I don’t know how any other company could have helped us at Arden Self Storage better than Kuboid did.”
