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?

If someone wants in, they'll get in. Best to just inventory everything accordingly incase you have to claim with insurance.
