Kuboid Partners with KISS to Bring NFC Powered Access to the UK Market

The SSA UK Conference in Telford brings the self-storage industry together around one idea: Raising the standard and levelling up.

At Kuboid, that mindset is central to how we approach every facility we build.

Our focus has always been on delivering developments that are not only built to perform today, but designed for what comes next.

As part of that commitment, we’re excited to announce a new partnership with Keep It Simple Storage(KISS), bringing a new approach to access control to our customers across the UK and Europe.

KISS is a U.S. based company that pioneered NFC-powered smart locks specifically built for self-storage. The company has seen rapid growth across the U.S. market and is already supporting operators internationally, including a portfolio-wide rollout with one of the UK’s leading operators, Ready Steady Store.

As adoption accelerates, Kuboid is proud to lead the way in bringing this technology to the UK and European markets.

This approach removes the infrastructure that traditionally limits smart access at scale:

– No batteries to maintain
– No wiring or infrastructure to install
– No reliance on WIFI or Bluetooth

Instead, access is powered by NFC technology – where a mobile device provides the energy needed to activate the lock at the moment of access.

The result is a streamlined, mobile-first experience for both operators and tenants – from gate access through to individual unit entry.

More importantly, it’s an approach designed to scale across entire facilities without introducing additional complexity or ongoing maintenance.

We’ll be showcasing this technology at the SSA UK Level Up Conference at the Kuboid booth, where attendees can experience it firsthand.

For those attending, demo locks will also be available to reserve and take back to share with your team – providing a hands-on look at how NFC-powered access works in practice.

As the industry continues to evolve, Kuboid remains focused on delivering facilities built on infrastructure that is simpler, more reliable, and designed to scale with the next generation of self-storage.
