Educational Lockers are available in colour options for every level of education, from kindergarten to college. From a simple cube upwards, the sheer variety of lockers available puts them at the top of every school’s list for changing and storage requirements.
Steel manufactured standard height compartment lockers at 1800 mm high are ideal for senior pupils and reduced height lockers at 1370 mm are perfectly suited for younger primary aged children.
For those awkward areas with limited space, there are also modular lockers that can be stacked and nested. There is also a wide choice of coloured door options available to provide a mix of colours, e.g. harlequin effect. Standard locker options help when wanting a ‘bespoke’ locker, this includes locker stands, sloping tops, various lock options and complementary cloakroom equipment.
Popular uses: Schools, hospitals, swimming pools, leisure complexes, nurseries, tourist, picnic and play areas.
The following checklist will give guidance when choosing the correct locker...
• Establish the total requirement of compartments, remembering to incorporate potential additional users in the future.
• Consider the size of compartment needed e.g. clothes hanging requirement, size of kitbags/rucksacks, etc. Popular locker configurations within educational establishments are 2, 3 and 4 door lockers.
• Survey the premises to establish suitable locker locations that are dry, free from excessive moisture, remembering high traffic areas may not be suitable plus any areas exposed to the outdoor elements.
• Position lockers in areas that are open to view to assist with deterring vandalism
• Carefully consider a suitable locking mechanism, popular options are a key operated cam lock or a padlock fitting. Padlock fittings will accept a key or combination padlock. The minimum shank diameter recommended is 6 mm. Additional keyless solutions are featured within the brochure
• Allowing sufficient time from ordering lockers to have them installed. During busy periods of national holidays, give as much notice as possible to arrange supply and delivery.
• Finally, consider acquiring necessary spare locker components to replace damaged parts e.g. doors, locks etc. Tip... a well-maintained locker is less likely to be abused than an unmaintained locker.
