Nokē Smart Entry System
Have you ever gone to your storage unit and forgotten the key to your lock? Controlled Storage Solutions is excited to bring you a more secure and user-friendly way to think about your storage unit security. The best part is all it takes is an item you most likely already have: a smartphone. Controlled Storage Solutions has introduced a product named the Nokē Smart Entry System for our units. Nokē is a Bluetooth electronic lock that allows you to access the site and units by an app on your smartphone. No more forgotten or lost keys. Just open the app, tap on an icon and you can access the unit.
Simple Setup
Setting up the app is easy. On the day your lease starts, you will get a text message to your phone with a link to download the app and a passcode. Once you download the app, you sign in with your phone number and the temporary passcode to create an account.
Share Access with Digital Keys
Another fantastic feature of the Noke Smart Entry system is digital key sharing. You can go onto the app and grant access to a family member, friend, or anyone you want to access your unit. Access is totally in your control and you can add or remove access as you wish.
Easy to Use
• If you are accessing your unit, walk to your unit, open the app on your phone and wake the latch by touching the white rectangular plastic window on the latch.
• In the app you will see an icon of a roll up door with your unit number, tap the icon and your phone’s Bluetooth will unlock the unit.
• After you are finished, simply close the unit and return the latch to the locked position. The latch will automatically lock.
• A red light means that the unit is locked, a green light means the unit is unlocked.

Will NSS staff have access to my unit since there is no physical padlock?

Even if the unit is in an overlock status, site staff cannot get into rented units for liability purposes.
What are the steps I need to take to download the APP? 1. Click the link in the automated text message to download the Storage Smart entry app and log in. 2.

Note: Bluetooth must be turned on in your smartphone’s settings in order to access your unit.
How do I access my unit? Does the app need my location? Tap the LED light on the smart lock to “wake” it. Open the Storage Smart Entry app on your smartphone.
