In our "Exploring Smart Entry Solutions" series, Gavin speaks directly with leading providers to learn about their technologies, offering self storage operators crucial insights into how these access systems function. Through these conversations, we hope you'll gain a comprehensive understanding of the mechanics behind the solutions and their practical benefits.

During this episode, Gavin chats to Sebastian Karakes, founder of Rubik and Excess Solution, discusses the Rubik management system for combination padlocks. Rubik offers a low-tech solution for self-storage operators, allowing tenants to access units using combination padlocks with a four-digit code. The system integrates with gate access systems and can be used for new sites or retrofitted to existing ones. Sebastian explains the process of setting up Rubik, including adding locks to the inventory and locking units. He also discusses the operator tasks of collecting padlocks and overlocking units. Rubik is available worldwide, except in Russia and the United Arab Emirates.
