Every lock check, on the record.

Your team walks the property. The app captures who checked what, when, with photos. The clipboard stops being your only proof.

01 — The problem

Paper logs work fine until someone asks you to prove it.

01

No audit trail

Paper logs get lost, soaked, or scribbled. When a lien dispute lands, you have nothing that proves the check happened.

02

No real-time visibility

You hear about a cut lock hours or days later. By then the tenant has already called, and the story isn't yours.

03

Staff inconsistency

Every person has their own method. No standard, no accountability, no way to confirm a row was walked at all.

04

Compliance exposure

Auditors and insurers ask for documentation. A clipboard in a desk drawer is not documentation.

02 — Side by side

Clipboard and spreadsheet vs. Lock Check Cloud

Clipboard + spreadsheet Lock Check Cloud
Proof a check happened A signature, if it's legible ✓Timestamp, logged per unit and per staff member
Photos of an overlock On someone's phone ✓Attached to the unit record
Finding last quarter's log A binder, maybe ✓Search by unit, staff, or date
Issue follow-up Sticky note ✓Discovery → Contact → Resolved
Handing records to an auditor Rebuild it by hand ✓Export the date range
03 — How it works

Admin assigns it. Staff scans in. You see everything.

01

Admin assigns the check

Create a lock check or walk-through from the desktop. Pick the facility, the date, and the staff member.

02

Staff scan the on-screen code

Start the check on the office computer and a QR code appears. Staff scan it with their phone camera and the session opens in the browser. Nothing to install.

03

Issues are logged as you go

Overlock status, photos, and notes go in unit by unit. Anything wrong shows on your dashboard, and supervisors get an email when the check is done.

04

The record saves itself

Who walked it, when, and what they found — logged, searchable, and ready to export.

04 — Inside the platform

One screen tells you whether today's check happened.

Checks completed, open issues, who walked it, and how long it took — per facility, with the full history underneath. Running more than one facility? Supervisors see every property's checks in one place.

05 — California context

Lien disputes are won on documentation.

California's self-service storage rules put the burden of process on the operator. When a tenant, an attorney, or an insurer questions a delinquency, the question is always the same: show me the record.

Lock Check Cloud keeps a timestamped, photo-backed history of every check and every overlock, per unit, per facility — searchable years later.

Informational only. Not legal advice.

08 — About the team

Why LCC exists

LCC
The Lock Check Cloud Team
Built by people who’ve run storage operations for 8+ years
—8+ years running self-storage facilities across Southern California
—Lock checks, walk-throughs and overlocks — done by hand, every day
—Los Angeles, CA — building for California operators first
—Designed around how facility teams actually work

We started in self-storage the way a lot of operators do — a part-time job that turned into a career. Eight-plus years of managing facilities, dealing with tenants, training staff, and doing lock checks every single day.

We were using a clipboard and a spreadsheet — the same way operators have been doing it for decades. The clipboard got wet. The spreadsheet got complicated. When something went wrong, finding the record was a nightmare. We kept asking: why doesn't a purpose-built tool exist for this?

Lock Check Cloud is the tool we wished we had when we were behind the fence every day. If you're a self-storage operator in California who's still doing lock checks on paper, this was built for you.

Only 10 founding spots.
