Facility managers in industrial workshops or production facilities favour steel lockers due to their ability to withstand the rigours of harsh environments, while ensuring that heavy and expensive items such as tools need to be securely stored away under lock and key.
With steel lockers, durability doesn’t have to come at the expense of aesthetic appeal. High quality steel lockers by Premier Lockers are sleek, sturdy, presentable, and secure storage solutions that can also endure the expected rugged use without succumbing to wear and tear.
A locker is a small, usually narrow storage compartment. They are commonly found in dedicated cabinets, very often in large numbers, in various public places such as locker rooms, workplaces, elementary schools,middle and high schools, transport hubs and the like. They vary in size, purpose, construction, and security.
Lockers are normally quite narrow, of varying heights and tier arrangements. Width and depth usually conform to standard measurements, although non-standard sizes are occasionally found. Public places with lockers often contain large numbers of them, such as in a school. They are usually made of painted sheet metal.
The characteristics that usually distinguish them from other types of cabinet or cupboard or storage container are:
They are usually equipped with a lock, or at least a facility for padlocking (occasionally both).
They are usually intended for use in public places, and intended for the short- or long-term private use of individuals for storing clothing or other personal items. Users may rent a locker for a single use or for a period of time for repeated use. Some lockers are offered as a free service to people partaking of certain activities that require the safekeeping of personal items.
There are usually, but not always, several of them joined.
Lockers are usually physically joined side by side in banks, and are commonly made from steel, although wood, laminate, and plastic are other materials sometimes found. Steel lockers which are banked together share side walls, and are constructed by starting with a complete locker; further lockers may then be added by constructing the floor, roof, rear wall, door, and just one extra side wall, the existing side wall of the previous locker serving as the other side wall of the new one. The walls, floors, and roof of lockers may be either riveted together (the more traditional method) or, more recently, welded together.
Locker doors usually have some kind of ventilation to provide for the flow of air to aid in cleanliness. These vents usually take the form of a series of horizontal angled slats at the top and bottom of the door, although sometimes parallel rows of small square or rectangular holes are found instead, running up and down the door. Less often, the side or rear walls may also have similar ventilation.
Locker doors usually have door stiffeners fixed vertically to the inside of the door, in the form of a metal plate welded to the inner surface, and protruding outward a fraction of an inch, thus adding to the robustness of the door and making it harder to force open.
Lockers are often manufactured by the same companies who produce filing cabinets, stationery cabinets (occasionally wrongly referred to as lockers, steel shelving, and other products made from sheet steel.
Historically, lockers have been a space to store personal belongings secured by various locking mechanisms. The earliest modern lockers were simple ‘box with a lock’ type device likely used for sporting purposes. The ‘locker room’ was a place for athletes to store their clothing, belongings and equipment temporarily. People could retrieve their items by using their specific key assigned to them when they selected the locker space. As lockers became more commonplace, they started appearing in educational facilities, hospitals, gymnasiums and in the workplace.
Lockers initially were cabinet-like and made of wood and later made of steel and metal. Lockers have since evolved with peoples needs and breakthrough technologies. Today lockers can be manufactured out of various materials and to suit the décor of the environment they are in. Metal, steel, plastic, wood and fabricated wood are all popular materials that are used.
The lock mechanism on a locker has especially evolved with the induction of new technologies. The movement from a large padlock and key to an electronic system, illustrates how lockers have adopted smart technology. Smart technology allows lockers to be digital, flexible in use and equipped with various features to improve the user experience.
Smart lockers are digitally managed storage banks which makes the experience of acquiring and using a locker fast and efficient. Whether it’s controlled by a mobile phone app or a touchless kiosk, the technology allows for automation throughout the entire process/workflow.
