A door bar provides extra protection from intruding through entrance door. XCaliber Container’s door bars are steel, making them heavy and difficult to break open.

2. Perimeter Security
Fencing, gates, and barriers provide additional protection against unauthorized access. Perimeter security measures are often complemented by well-lit areas with surveillance cameras to deter criminals.

Furthermore, window bars create a physical barrier that prevents unauthorized individuals from entering the interior.

6. Alarms & Motion Sensors
Alarm and motion sensors are installed to detect unauthorized movement within and outside the container. These systems trigger alerts in case of unusual activity.
7. Access Control Measures
Access control measures only provide access to authorized individuals to enter the shipping container. They may include key cards, biometric authentication, and unrecognizable access codes. This layer of security significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized entry and can control who enters the container.
TIPS FOR SAFEGUARDING BELONGINGS
1. Use Locked Organizers
Store belongings in bins and organizers with locks. These locks provide extra protection in the shipping container’s interior. Invest in high-quality locks for bins instead of generic or easily bypassed locks.
2. Use Hidden Compartments
Use furniture, such as ottomans, that have hidden storage compartments. If intruders enter the container, they cannot easily access all items.
3. Be Mindful of Location
Place valuable belongings away from windows and areas that are easily visible from the outside. You can store items in the back of the container where there is not a clear view of the belonging.
4. Choose the Right Container
