Fine Art Storage in Canada: Secure, Climate-Controlled Facilities for Collectors, Estates and Institutions
Whether you’re a seasoned collector, estate executor, gallery owner, or private investor, one thing is certain: fine art requires professional care. From paintings and photography to sculpture and mixed media, proper art storage in Canada is essential for preservation, security, and value retention.
At LONO Fine Asset Lending, we partner with leading fine art storage facilities across Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, Calgary, Ottawa, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Quebec City, Halifax, and Victoria to provide secure, climate-controlled storage solutions tailored to collectors and professionals. Whether you're relocating, downsizing, managing an estate, or safeguarding high-value art for future sale or exhibition, we ensure your pieces are protected—both physically and financially.
Why Professional Art Storage Is Essential
Unlike furniture or household goods, fine art is sensitive to its environment. Changes in humidity, light, and temperature can cause irreversible damage. Art stored in basements, garages, or self-storage units is vulnerable to mold, warping, pests, and theft.
Here’s why collectors and institutions across Canada trust specialized storage:
Climate Control: Stable humidity and temperature prevent cracking, fading, and deterioration.
Security Systems: 24/7 surveillance, alarmed vaults, and restricted access offer peace of mind.
Insurance-Grade Handling: Art is packed, transported, and stored with museum-level care.
Inventory Management: Digital cataloging and condition reports ensure your collection is tracked and protected.
From Toronto to Vancouver, and Calgary to Halifax, we work with Canada’s top-tier storage providers who understand the unique value of every piece.
