Storage Genie grants access to our property all while keeping your phone in your pocket. Simply drive up to the gate and it will open. Its hands-free entry made easy!
Once you open the app, you will be notified that Storage Genie requires some permissions. By selecting “allow notifications”, Storage Genie will send you notifications when you enter or exit the facility. To take advantage of the Hands-Free Access, make sure you have selected “Enable Location” or “Allowed Location”. This will enable your mobile device to detect that you are near the keypad and automatically open the gate when you arrive.
If you are at or near the Storage Facility, U-Stor (JF Rockford LLC) should automatically appear on the screen. Select the green “plus” button next to the storage property to continue setting up your account. Enter your last name, unit number, and gate access code.
A few mobile reminders:
– Make sure your location services are set to “always allow”
– Have Bluetooth turned ON
– If you select “don’t allow” the app will not function properly
Once you approach the gate, the gate should automatically open and you can drive through. Upon exiting the facility, the gate will automatically open as you approach the gate to leave.
*Please note: In order to avoid injury or damage from the gate closing, “Do Not” allow anyone to follow behind your vehicle through the gate without also entering the access code.
**The newest ISO updates for iPhones can vary in time to become compatible with Storage Genie.
