Is your self storage facility ready for the future—or falling behind?

In this episode, Nigel Kreft from Elevate Structures joins Tommy Nguyen and Melissa Huff to talk about how to keep your property competitive, profitable, and positioned for growth through the right upgrades and expansions.

We discuss:

  • When and why to upgrade or expand (from occupancy struggles to prepping for a sale)

  • How to time improvements around seasons, customer impact, and ROI

  • The upgrades that deliver the biggest return (and the ones that matter long-term, even with delayed ROI)

  • Expert tips for roofing, fencing, gates, access systems, and landscaping

  • How to decide between raising rates, expanding, or acquiring

  • Common construction pitfalls and how to avoid them

  • What to know about budgeting, vendors, and scheduling before breaking ground

  • The three upgrades every operator should prioritize: security, functional doors, and quality roofing

Whether you’re battling competition, planning to sell, or simply want to keep your facility thriving, this episode will help you make smart decisions that pay off now—and years down the road.

This webinar originally aired on July 24, 2025 .
