Online storage for electronic documents and files
As part of our extended archiving services, Ardington Archives provides a secure electronic hosting service as an efficient and cost-effective alternative to in house operations. The secure online document storage facility provides easy access to files in multiple formats, from any computer, tablet or phone connected to the internet. This secure document management system enables authorised users to back-up, upload, download, and share digital documents from any location with internet access, 24 hours a day.
To ensure the security of the data stored, all data is transferred in TLS standard encryption. For added security it is possible to encrypt the files in place within the secure online store. This stored data can be encrypted to AES-256 levels with the encryption key remaining on the server, meaning the data is only readable online through the secure online store.
The online document storage includes:
- Password protected user interface
- Instant document access from any source with internet connectivity

At Ardington Archives we understand that fast and efficient document retrieval is vital for the management of any business.

Requested documents are returned either physically or via electronic format, with both options ensuring a secure and confidential delivery.
At Ardington Archives, we provide a comprehensive range of document scanning and digital conversion services using state-of-the-art equipment. We can advise on the best mix of scanning and hardcopy storage to meet your specific needs.
As part of our document storage service, Ardington Archives works with clients to determine destruction dates for archived documents and files. Confidential destruction is carried out by twice shredding the documents, before they are pulped and recycled into toilet tissue. We additionally offer destruction of associated media such as PC hard drives, meeting BSI standards in both Environmental and Information Management.
Ardington Archives has a range of custom designed storage boxes made from high content recycled board. Designed with a double thickness skin to ensure strength, rigidity and a longer life than most other storage boxes, all Ardington Archives boxes are PH neutral to maintain the quality and integrity of the documents stored inside, meeting BS 4971 standards. All boxes are supplied flatpacked for ease of storage and transportation.
In our rapidly-evolving digital era, preserving our cultural and personal heritage has taken a revolutionary turn through heritage scanning. This transformative process involves digitising redords, documents and images, extending their life without causing any damage to the original items.
