The company, a subsidiary of the Lincoln Warehouse Corp., New York City, specializes in protection from war damage as well as flood, fire and earthquakes.

The firm has clients from all over the United States as well as Europe and Asia. The majority of records are on rolls of microfilm.

There is only one other place in New York State offering this protection and that is located in the Iron Mountain area.
