“Stormhammer's nightly patrol logs go straight into our board packet. Calls dropped, residents feel safer, and the GPS-verified tours give us something to hand the insurer. Best vendor decision the board has made in years.”
“Sprinkler went down on a Friday night. Stormhammer had a fire-watch officer on site within 90 minutes, fully NFPA compliant, with a written log for the fire marshal Monday morning.”
“Cut our overnight security spend almost in half and the residents actually see the patrol vehicle on the property now. The photo-verified arrivals are a game changer for our owners' reporting.”
Stormhammer Security, Inc. runs the amenity lockup workflow that most Sacramento apartment communities are still doing with a maintenance tech at overtime rates. One officer, one 20–30 minute sweep, every amenity locked at its posted curfew with a timestamped photo — pool gate, gym door, laundry rooms, clubhouse, mailroom, trash rooms, dog park gate. Morning unlock at 5–6am with the same photo proof. Bundled with courtesy patrol so noise, unauthorized guests, and parking violations get the same nightly attention. CA PPO #121830.

Frequently asked
Frequently asked questions
What is an amenity lock/unlock service for apartments?+
A nightly patrol officer physically closes and locks resident amenities at a set curfew (pool 10pm, gym 11pm, laundry 11pm, clubhouse 10pm) and reopens them at a set morning time (typically 5–6am). Each lock and unlock is timestamped, photo-verified, and delivered in a next-morning report so property management has a legal record for insurance and lease enforcement.
How much does amenity lock/unlock cost in Sacramento?+
Bundled with mobile patrol from $15/visit — one visit covers full amenity close (pool, gym, laundry, clubhouse, mailroom, trash room, dog park) in a single 20–30 minute sweep. Morning unlock adds one visit at the same rate. Multi-property portfolios discount further.
Why do Sacramento apartments need photo-verified lockup?+
California habitability law and most master insurance policies require documented amenity closure at posted curfew. Photo-timestamped proof protects the property from slip-and-fall claims after hours, unauthorized pool use liability, and lease-violation disputes. It's also the fastest way to shut down noise complaints from neighbors.
What amenities do you lock up nightly?+
Pool gate, spa gate, fitness center, laundry rooms (all buildings), clubhouse, business center, mailroom / package room, trash rooms and dumpster corrals, dog park gates, EV charger area, tennis / pickleball courts, and leasing office. Any resident amenity with a lease-posted curfew.
Do you unlock amenities in the morning?+
Yes — standard morning unlock window is 5–6am. Officer opens pool gate (per Cal-OSHA / CDPH posted hours), unlocks fitness center, opens laundry rooms, and photos each open state. Delivered in the same DAR as the previous night's close-out. Call (530) 902-9390.
Can you handle leasing office morning open?+
Yes — dedicated leasing-office morning unlock (typical 8am) with alarm disarm, lights on, coffee-station bootstrap if the property provides supplies, and a walk-through photo before the leasing team arrives.
What happens if a resident is in the amenity at curfew?+
Officers use scripted courteous verbal warn-out (bilingual English/Spanish available), give a 5-minute window, and photo-log any refusal for property management's lease-violation file. No physical enforcement — we protect the property's liability posture, not act as police.
How does this integrate with our existing courtesy patrol?+
We do both under one contract — courtesy patrol tours (noise, unauthorized guests, parking) plus amenity lockup on the same nightly visit. One officer, one bill, one report. Most Sacramento communities save 20–30% consolidating both onto Stormhammer.
