# Settings - Unit Types

## Define and manage the different unit types available at your facility, such as size, access type, and amenities.

Here, you can edit and add to the different types of units your facility has to offer. You can create different categories and different groups in each of the categories in whatever size you need.

Common Unit Types include: Drive up and Climate Controlled

Common Unit Groups include: Small, Medium and Large

These can all be set to whatever best matches your facility. Unit groups can be duplicated for different sizes. If you would like to classify a 5x5 unit and a 5x10 unit in the “Small” group, you are able to do so.

 

To add a unit type, you can click the **Add Unit Type** button at the top. There, you can set all the characteristics of that category, such as formatting and unit of measurement. Once you’ve saved that as a Unit Type, you can click the **edit pencil** next to its title to edit what unit sizes are in that category.
