R4 Buildings & Security

R4 has three records centers located near the Chicago Central Business District with easy access to all major expressways and minutes into the Loop. All R4 facilities feature state-of-the art security and safety systems, as well as strict procedures to protect your company's information assets. The largest of the three facilities feature 250,000 square feet of storage on five acres of land and is constructed of concrete walls and floors with a full basement. Our second facility includes nearly 137,000 square feet and full basement. Our third and newest facility is a single story structure of 70, 000 square feet and includes the same security and fire protection offered by our larger facilities including:

  • 24/7/365 closed circuit, monitored surveillance system including infrared motion detectors and door contacts
  • 24/7/365 monitored fire detection system that includes sprinkler pipes, sprinkler heads, control panels and fire pump
  • Monitored door policy to control unauthorized access

Our climate-controlled vault adheres to strict fire resistant construction standards of the American National Standards Institute and the National Fire Protection Association. Designed to preserve and protect sensitive data and to provide secure video and film storage, the R4 vault is equipped with an independent HVAC system and is computer-monitored to maintain a temperature of 65º to 68º and relative humidity between 35% and 45%. Key pad entry, motion detectors, CCTV and an FM-200 fire suppression system offer state-of-the-art security and protection.
