Ways To Find The Best Deals On Metal Lockers Made In America

Go 60 inch Lockers Instead of 72

Very tall lockers have been designed to hold specialized gear or clothes neatly stored on hangers.  If you are storing personal items, valuables, folded clothing, or smaller pieces of equipment, you can save money on metal lockers and still meet your storage needs with units configured at 60” in height rather than 72”.  This one foot difference is not noticeable in most everyday applications and saves considerable manufacturing costs.

Louvered door rather than vented door

Louvers are really a form of ventilation.  You have seen them all your life and may have thought of them as “ventilation slits” because that’s what they look like.  In today’s terminology, the term “ventilated” normally refers to some kind of perforation that exposes a large amount of the locker unit’s interior to airflow.  This is really only needed for very sweaty clothing and volatile chemicals.  Most things you store on a daily basis do just fine in lockers with louvered doors.

Standard in house colors

When building a locker room, you can save money on metal lockers by purchasing them in the basic gray, tan, or blue standard colors.  Most of us grew up going to gym classes with these colored lockers and never really noticed them.  Unless you need something super cosmetic, the same old colors we have seen all our lives will do just fine.

Using free standing on wall

It is much less expensive to install lockers free standing along the wall than it is to build them into the wall.  Even semi-recessed installations, especially in reconstruction projects, take considerably more investment than free-standing units.  Lockers are built to be stable no matter how they are mounted.  If you have plenty of wall space to hold all your units, this is a very simple, and very highly effective way to save money on metal lockers.

Use your own locks

Good combination locks are cheap and can be purchased online in bulk or bought at any hardware store.  You can order your lockers with standard hasps and supply your users with their own combination locks.

Un-assembled rather than assembled (for small lockers)

You can also save money on metal lockers by buying them un-assembled.  Typically smaller units that number 10 or less can be put together in a matter of hours.  Obviously an entire locker room with larger lockers should be ordered assembled.  However, many retail stores and businesses that provide employees with personal storage lockers can significantly reduce order costs by buying lockers for garages and break rooms un-assembled.
