Saracen also has 4hr Fire Vaults for extra sensitive or irreplaceable Documents and Records such as Deeds, Wills and Contracts.

Our comprehensive security code stipulates the following  criteria:

  1. All windows and doors are steel security shuttered for an added layer of security
  2. Fire and intruder alarms are linked to a central, 24 hour monitoring station
  3. Smoke and motion detectors located throughout our facilities
  4. 24 hour CCTV monitoring
  5. Access Control system
  6. Site located well above any flood plains 
  7. Access to sites is strictly employee only. Customer visits are by appointment and supervised 
  8. Steel palisade security fencing around the entire perimeter of the site

We encourage businesses that are considering using saracen for their document storage requirements to visit our facilities in order to inspect them first hand and be satisfied that their vital business records are going to an ideal archive storage location
