\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The elevators are located in the lobby right after the loading area doors. The first number of your storage unit indicates which floor your rented unit is on. (For example, 3123 is located on the third floor.)<\/p>

Once you reach the correct floor, you’ll find storage unit numbers and arrows in front of the elevator indicating which direction to go to find your unit.<\/p>

Access to the garage-type storage units is from outside. These units are located on the side and back of the building.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

6. Using your storage unit<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Once you’ve found your rented unit, please double-check that you’re about to enter the correct one. The storage unit number is located on the outside of the door.<\/p>

Open the door by pulling the latch open. This releases the lock, and the door can then be opened.<\/p>

On the floor of the storage unit, you’ll find a safety-approved cylinder lock with its key. Please note: Pelican does not keep spare keys to your lock.<\/p>

Your unit is now ready for use.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Closing the door:<\/b>Push the door shut and move the metal latch into place so that the door locks. (For roll-up doors, pull the door all the way down and make sure it is fully closed so you can secure the latch.)Make sure the cylinder lock’s tab is aligned with the lock. (See image 2: the dots on the lock facing each other.) Insert the lock into the lock housing and turn the key counterclockwise. Remove the key, and the lock should stay in place. Double-check that the door does not open.<\/p>

Opening the door:<\/b>Turn the key to the right and pull the cylinder lock out of its housing. Move the metal latch, and you can now open the door.<\/p>

Garage-type storage units:<\/strong>Inside the unit, you will find two (2) iLOQ keys and an illustrated guide for opening and closing the door. The first time you arrive at your unit, the door will be unlocked and can be opened by lifting it.<\/p> \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
