Underground Storage
Disaster, deterioration, and
deception protection.
Underground storage offers the maximum-possible security for
sensitive media, critical
data, important
records, and vital
assets.
A well-planned, located and constructed underground
storage facility is virtually impervious to natural and manmade
disaster. Its atmosphere is cool, dry, and stable. It hides
sensitive information from prying eyes, and is infinitely customizable.
Though items may be stored miles away, the storage company
must meet client needs for fast and secure access.
Our three facilities in Kansas, Missouri
and Kentucky serve clients across the nation and around the
world. Nobody does underground storage better than Underground
Vaults & Storage.
Our premiere salt mine facility offers
unrivaled protection. Wrapped in a 400 ft thick rock salt
cocoon, located 650 ft below the earth’s surface, and
accessible only by vertical freight elevator; it is one of
the largest and most secure storage facilities in the world.
Two limestone mine facilities offer drive-up dock access,
proximity to larger cities, and refrigerated storage.
When disaster strikes, you'll know
your items are safe with Underground
Vaults & Storage.

| FEATURES – Underground Storage
|
 |
Geographic Separation
Disaster planning and compliance experts
agree – offsite storage
reduces your risk and enables faster recovery from disaster.
Our three facilities are not only geographically-separate
from your organization – they are miles from danger
zones associated with oceans, rivers, seismic fault lines,
flood plains, military activity and volcanic hot spots. Our
Hutchinson salt mine facility is also located far from major
metropolitan areas, hidden under the fields of Kansas. |
 |
Protection in Depth
Our clients fear no tornado, wildfire,
explosion, deluge, blizzard, windstorm, or any other above-ground
calamity. Records and assets lay buried within limestone formations,
or 650 ft below the earth within 400 ft of solid rock salt. |
 |
Naturally Ideal Conditions
Our natural underground temperature
and humidity is ideal for nearly every media – cool,
dry and stable. Unlike above ground storage facilities, which
must rely on climate control equipment and electricity, our underground
atmosphere is not susceptible to brownouts, blackouts, or equipment
failure. The salt mine facility is exceptional in this regard – the
natural temperature is 68°F/20°C, and the average relative
humidity remains a dry 35%-40%. |
 |
Infinite Customization
Clients have requested 15,000 sq.
ft. private rooms, concrete block walls, bank vault doors, custom
lighting, custom
data tape racking, direct fiberoptic
connections, work rooms, staffed work areas, drawer storage,
additional dehumidification, refrigeration, restricted employee
access, vaults within vaults, and other unique storage arrangements.
We are eager to please. |
 |
Focused Security Measures
Unlike above ground facilities,
our underground facilities have severely limited access points.
We can then protect those points using any combination of video
surveillance, infrared, biometrics, redundant security systems,
temperature and humidity monitoring, vault doors, security guards
and more. Our salt mine facility enjoys an added, natural security
measure: a 650 ft drop via vertical elevator shaft. No truck
can physically access this facility. |
 |
Fast Client Access
Rest assured, your records and
assets are within your reach, even if you are states or oceans
away! We offer scanning and encrypted digital transmission, overnight
shipping via third party carrier, and transportation via our
wholly-owned fleet of freight trucks and courier vans. 650 feet
deep, miles away never felt so close. |
