How to Use the Self-Store Security System  
 
Summary: Once your department is approved for storage space and you have been assigned a unique four-digit access code, follow the steps below to gain access to UCSD Self-Store located at 7835 Trade St., Suite 100.

Note: UCSD Self-Store spaces are rarely vacant, and when a space becomes available, it is usually assigned to a department on the waiting list. See how to place your department on a waiting list.

Tip: Print these instructions and take them with you to Self-Store.
What to do How to do it
1 Enter your five-digit access code.
  1. On the door marked UCSD Self-Store, look for a numerical key pad. Enter your access code followed by the # sign.
  2. An electric door latch will release and allow you to enter.

    Note: All entrance activities, including the date and time of entry, are recorded via the access code.
  3. For those who had a four-digit card just add 1 before the four digits (1XXXX#).
2 Enter the Self-Store facility and turn on the lights.
  1. The storage facility has two levels:
    • Ground floor
    • Mezzanine
  2. Three rotary dial light switches are located to the left of the double doors on both levels. Rotate each dial switch clockwise, and a bank of lights will activate for 30 minutes.
  3. Reset the timer at any time during the cycle. If not reset, the lights will automatically shut off in 30 minutes.
3 Use the dockside roll-up freight doors on the ground floor.
  1. After you enter the storage facility via the front access door, you may open any or all of the roll-up doors. No additional access (keypad) entry is necessary.
4 Use the freight only elevator for freight access to/ from the mezzanine level.
  1. Operating instructions are available at the elevator.
5 Avoid activating the silent alarm.
  1. Note: If you hear a high pitched buzzing sound, this is a warning that the silent alarm is about to be activated.

    To avoid activating the silent alarm:
    • Go to the nearest keypad.
    • Enter your access code.
    • Press # or enter.
If you fail to follow these instructions, the police will be called.

6 Do not open the Emergency Use Only rear access door.
  1. The Emergency Use Only rear access door is for emergencies only. If opened, a silent alarm is activated.
