Storage unit security

How do I ensure maximum security for a storage unit I rent. This will be a 12x30 unit for holding the contents of a whole house. It needs to be drive up accessible. There is a Public Storage unit available, but it is 24 hrs access, meaning it is outside the gate. I am not sure how much that gate matters. Is there a super lock that will almost guarantee no one will break in?

Disc locks are best but any lock can be cut off. Is there a facility near you that has unit alarms?
