A-Lert Self Storage Conversions:
Transforming Spaces into Functional Self Storage Buildings
At A-Lert Building Systems, one of our specialties is the innovative conversion of existing buildings into efficient self-storage facilities.
With our expertise in layout design, construction, and customization, we transform underutilized spaces into profitable storage solutions.
Whether you have a big box store or grocery store that’s closed its doors, a warehouse, an office building, or a vacant building that formerly
served as retail space, we can unlock its full potential and turn your existing structure into a thriving self-storage facility filled with rentable spaces.
The storage business is a popular venture and for good reason. It’s a relatively low-cost business to start, and it can be very profitable. One of the biggest challenges facing self-storage entrepreneurs is finding a suitable location. Land can be expensive, and zoning regulations can be restrictive. An alternative to new construction is filling an existing structure with rentable spaces, otherwise known as a self storage building conversion.
This can be a great option if you can find an affordable building in a desirable location. However, there are some pros and cons to consider
before you make the decision to convert a building.
Pros of Converting an Existing Building
There are several advantages to converting an existing building into a self-storage facility. First, it can be a more cost-effective option than building a new facility from scratch. Second, you may be able to find an existing building in a desirable location that would be difficult or impossible to acquire for a new construction project. Third, converting an existing building can be a quicker process than building a new facility.
Things to Consider Before Converting an Existing Building
There are a few things to consider prior to converting an existing building into a self-storage facility. First, you may need to renovate the building to make it suitable for self-storage. This can be a costly and time-consuming process. Second, the building may not be the ideal size or shape for self-storage. This could limit your ability to rent out units and could impact your profitability. Third, the building may not be in the best condition. This could lead to additional maintenance costs and could make it more difficult to attract tenants.
