charging locker, lockers, metal lockers, storage lockers, mobile lockers, laptop lockers

Charging Lockers are growing significantly in popularity and for good reason too. With 88% of the UK population in possession of mobile phones alone, these lockers have never been higher in demand. As well, nearly 65% of the UK population own a laptop. Therefore, charging lockers in schools, public spaces and offices makes perfect sense.

Charge via USB or 3-Pin Sockets

All our mobile, tablet and laptop lockers come with the option to charge your devices via USB or 3-pin. The USB locking option comes fitted with both Type A and Type C sockets. This ensures that no matter how modern your device, a suitable insert is installed to charge your device. Look out for these icons below when browsing through our charging lockers:

Mobile Phone Charging Lockers

A mobile phone locker is a secure locker consisting of 8, 10, or 15 compartments. With its narrow design of 300mm, its the compact choice suitable where space is a premium. Choose between a single door or compartment matching door quantities. As well as being able to store your mobile device securely, you can also charge it. You can also choose how you want to charge it. This means you have the option of either USB or 3-Pin sockets in each compartment. The entire locker is powered with one 3-Pin plug. However, depending on which quantity of lockers you select, you will have a charging port in each compartment.

  • Great for schools, universities, offices, public areas, libraries, etc.
  • Each compartment is fitted with a standard 3-pin plug socket

Laptop Charging Lockers

Laptop Lockers are a little wider than mobile lockers. This is to cater to the average size of a laptop. At 450mm wide and 450mm deep, this ensures ample space for your larger devices. Much like mobile lockers, there are 8, 10 and 15 compartments to choose from. Again, choose from a single door or compartment matching doors. Choose your preferred charging option once again.

Laptop USB Charging Locker – 15 Compartments

  • Choose from a single door or 15 separate doors

Something a little different that is also a part of the charging locker family is our trolley charging units. We have charging trolleys for both laptops and mobile devices. These mobile units traverse with castors and can be used in between classrooms, offices and more. Choose between 2 or 16 doors to cater for the 16 compartments built in these.

  • Ideal for schools, universities, offices, IT rooms, etc.

Device Charging Locker Q&A

We’ve put together out most popular Q&A’s from our customers regarding Charging Lockers. If you have any more questions, please get in touch with us here:

Q1. How many devices can I charge in each charging locker?

A1. With 3-Pin charging lockers, each compartment’s port can charge a single device. With our USB charging lockers, 2 devices can be charged in each compartment via its type A and type C ports. So, in our 8 compartment 3-pin lockers, you can charge 8 devices. With our 15 compartment USB lockers, you can charge 30 devices (depending on their size)

Q2. Are charging lockers secure?

A2. Yes. You can store and charge your devices securely. Each locker comes fitted with a cam lock as standard. You can lock each door securely with a key. Or, there are optional lock upgrades too. Upgrade to a swivel latch lock if you want to lock with a padlock for example. Get in touch with us today to discuss your options.

Q3. Can I combine 3 Pin and USB charging ports in a single locker unit?

A3. There isn’t currently an option to combine the 2 charging methods in a single unit. This is all based on how each pillar is constructed that runs from the top to the bottom of the locker (in the far right corner of each compartment). Currently, each pillar is installed with either 3-pin or USB charging ports.

Q4. What device can I fit into each locker compartment?

A4. We encourage you to view each of our products descriptions. There, you can see the external locker size, along with each internal compartment size.

Lockers vs Coat Hooks – What You Need To Know!

Coat Hooks or Lockers? Do you remember what you had at school?

At Direct2U, we are often asked whether we would recommend Lockers or Pegs for School Pupils’ storage. We will look into why both Lockers and Pegs can be a practical storage solution. We will also consider situations where they may not be the most practical option.

Are Coat Hooks a cost-cutting solution for children? Should their belongings be more secure and better organised? Can Lockers provide a better solution than Coat Hooks? We will investigate making a comparison between the two storage options. This way, Schools and Nurseries alike can make an informed decision on which is best suited for them.

Why Go For Pegs over Lockers?

First, you can expect to save on cost and space with coat hooks. A single panel of wood with several hooks can cater for many students, most of which will be colour coded. Installation is quick and easy and results are immediate. You can use our Armour Junior Wall Mounted Coat Rails as a great example of what to expect from this method of storage.

1800mm wide Coat Rail
coat hooks, coat rails, lockers. locker storage, metal lockers, lockers for sale
1200mm Coat Rail

However, it’s important to look at how these may become problematic over time. When you are deciding to buy coat hooks, are you buying with the worst-case scenario in mind? Do you cater for the winter months when pupils may want to use more than a single hook for extra wear brought in? There have been instances where pupils’ coats and bags have fallen, causing hazards to teachers and pupils alike.

So, at a glance, why go for Pegs over Lockers:

  • Cost-effective solution
  • Practical and efficient
  • Convenient and Versatile
  • Reliable

And why Lockers could be the better choice:

  • Coats and bags could get mixed up
  • Belongings can fall on to the floor – creating hazards
  • Not secure from

Why Go For Lockers over Pegs?

Lockers provide a clean, compact solution for storing many items across many compartments. This is ideal for when many pupils need storage space. This s not only more pleasing to the eye but far more secure than leaving belongings out on show. Possessions can often be misplaced via coat hooks and most instances will be by mistake.

At Direct 2U, we provide School storage with various heights. This is so that we can accomodate for pupils of all ages throughout their education. Browse our TUFF range of School Lockers – This is a great place to start.

Giving each pupil a Locker means as soon as they walk into their classroom, there is a compartment specifically for them. Here, they can store their coat, bag, books, and lunch. In turn, this helps maintain a more organised and tidier classroom. There will be no risk of coats of bags falling from hooks, thus, less risk of potential hazards.

So, at a glance, why go for Lockers over Pegs:

  • Individual compartments for pupils
  • Tidy and Practical
  • Secure Storage
  • Long-lasting

So, why go for Pegs over Lockers?

  • Spend less on Pegs
  • Lockers will take up more space
  • Less convenient – chance of keys being lost

Where to start with your Lockers Project…

It can be a fairly daunting task when looking into buying equipment for Primary and Secondary Schools. The largest factors that come into play is the quality of the product, cost and reputation of the business that will provide. We will delve into how we manage our School Lockers Projects from start to finish.

We provide workplace equipment and install across the country. Many of our large projects stem from Primary and Secondary School Locker enquiries. To cater for hundreds and thousands of pupils takes careful planning and consideration.

At Direct2U, we have years of experience in assisting schools with thier school lockers projects. Therefore, we have a process in place for any new customers looking to reach out for new ideas and solutions. Below, we will go into some detail about our latest clients’ wants and needs along with our solutions for them.

Norland Primary School

Our clients at Norland Primary School made contact with us via our contact us page online. We arranged a free site survey so that we could look into the possibilities of what could be done, essentially allowing us to understand their needs.

For Primary Schools in particular, we recommend low-height lockers; so that pupils can reach the contents of their lockers with ease. Also, swivel latch locks are easier for pupils to use with a simple turn and lock action with no concerns of ever losing keys.

We have a good selection of low-height lockers. However, it was our TUFF Education Lockers that Norland Primary School decided on. Delivered fully assembled with nesting holes already pre-drilled, our installations team could carry out and install with ease.

Old Mill Primary School

Our clients at Old Mill Primary School return this year for more lockers. Last year, we installed lockers for thier Year 3 and Year 4 pupils. This time around, they needed a combination of different heights for their Year 5 and Year 6 pupils. The colour theme for the School and the pupils uniform is red. This was the driving force behind choosing a powder-coated red finish – to remain consistent with the schools colour scheme.

Our Lockers come in various heights. This means we can accommodate for multiple room designs, just like the one above. Our 1800mm high TUFF Lockers have been used on adjacent walls. However, the centre wall would need low-height lockers to allow them to fit underneath the windows. The room remains well lit and ventilated whilst having additional storage for more students.

We have highlighted below the 2 ranges of Lockers selected for this project along with some key features and benefits.

We Answer Your Top 5 Metal Lockers Questions!

A closer look at our range of Lockers..

The concept of Metal lockers is simple. Choose your style, size, colour and locks. However, there are still questions to be answered that go beyond the simple options available. What other colours do lockers come in? What metal are lockers made from? How do you lock your lockers? We’ll use this space to answer some of the most frequently asked questions we get from our customers.

What to put in your locker.

Although not technically a question, it’s along the same lines as ‘What can I put in my Locker?’. This is a good starting point. It may seem obvious but we wouldn’t suggest that you can store absolutely everything in your lockers.

For students, office staff and warehouse employees, Lockers can store everything you need during your working day. Coats, lunch, sports wear, books, phones, tablets, shoes, the works.

tuff lockers, school lockers, lockers for school, office lockers, staff lockers, metal lockers, metal lockers for sale, cheap lockers

We don’t recommend that you store any chemical substances in lockers. There are other specially made products for use with chemical products.

How Tall Are Lockers?

The average height of a standard locker is 1800mm. Generally, lockers tend to have a flat top design. This is to prevent any awkward obstructions with ceilings are partitions in more traditional buildings. Our TUFF Lockers are a great example of what to expect from our standard height lockers.

tuff lockers, school lockers, lockers for school, office lockers, staff lockers, metal lockers, metal lockers for sale, cheap lockers
Standard height of a full sized Locker

However, there are many types of lockers to choose from. Nurseries and Primary schools may not need lockers as tall as 1800mm. Therfore, small variations are a great option. We have lockers as low as 300mm (our Armour Cube Lockers). These are also stackable. Click here to take a closer look at our Cube Lockers.

Locker heights can vary significantly

Alternatively, explore lower compartment lockers. Our Education Lockers are perfect for Primary Schools and Secondary Schools. Heights from 955mm to 1380mm allow pupils to store and access thier personal belongings with ease.

What Metal Are Lockers Made From?

tuff lockers, school lockers, lockers for school, office lockers, staff lockers, metal lockers, metal lockers for sale, cheap lockers

The majority of metal lockers are made from 0.7mm mild steel. Mild steel is made from iron and carbon. This metal has a carbon content betwen 0.16% and 0.29%. Mild steel has a relatively high melting point between 1450°C to 1520°C. This high temperature translates to the steel being more ductile when heated. This effictively allows us to forge, cut, drill and weld with more ease.

Having said that, not all lockers made from metal. The reason for this is that some businesses require lockers suitable in other conditions or even outdoors. Take our Plastic Lockers for instance. These are fantastic for gyms, sports halls or the outdoors. The polyethelene material that we use for these are particulary good in wet areas. The plastic finish cannot rust and one of the most durable materials used. In fact, we use the same matertial is to make Wheelie Bins, albeit a high-density polythelene.

Why Do Lockers Have Vents?

tuff lockers, school lockers, lockers for school, office lockers, staff lockers, metal lockers, metal lockers for sale, cheap lockers
Ventilation styles for Probe, Pure and Armour Lockers

Locker doors have various styles of ventilation. The reason these slits in the metal are included in the door locker design is purely to allow air to pass through the compartment. Without these, a build of dust and smell can occur. The airflow means less maintenance for users. Some of our larger compartmetns, such as out 1 door 1800mm high lockers, include 2 vents. Whereas the smaller compartment lockers like our 5 and 6 door lockers, have just 1 vent.

How To Lock a Locker

There are multiple factors that can dictate your choice of locks, this ultimately leads to the question of how it is your going to lock each locker compartment. Where the lockers are going and who can access them will help you with your decision in selecting cam, swivel, coin and other locks.

For Schools, swivel locks are ideal as they instantly access with the turn of a small level on the front of the door. Whereas a coin return / retain lock would be ideal for leisure centres and sports halls. In most cases, there will be the option to purchase a Master Key. This gives the main user access to all locker compartments.

Combination Locks
Coin Return Locks

There are more locking options for you to be able to lock your compartements. Our Probe Lockers have even more options. You can check out our Locking guide here too.

School Lockers – 3 Reasons to update yours!

storage lockers, metal lockers, school lockers, small lockers, lockers for schools

Another School year goes by – the halls and classrooms eerily empty for the summer once more. New students will arrive for the new term whilst others will say their goodbyes…could the same be said for your School Lockers?

We’ll look at some of the reasons why a brand new set of Lockers can make all the difference. Not just for new students coming in, but for your staff and existing students that will be returning for the new School term.

Impress With School Lockers

school lokcers, range of school lockers, metal lockers, storage lockers, lockers for sale
Click to view our Range of TUFF School Lockers

Most students will have a very good idea of what to expect from the school they decide to attend during summer inductions . But there’s a lot going on with so much to take in over a short 1 or 2 day period. However, it is the little things that make all the difference. Good quality Lockers can leave a lasting impression on children and parents visiting the school. The security of childrens’ belongings is vital in any school environment.

Check the condition of your Lockers during the summer months and ensure they are functional. Broken or worn Lockers can potentially give the wrong impression to new and existing pupils. A brand new range of lockers, however, can contribute to reasons behind a school being selected or not.

Lockers That Last

We design our Lockers at Direct2U to stand the test of time. This is arguably the most important feature for Schools, Leisure Centres and other Educational institutes. They will endure the traffic they see year in, year out. As well as a solid steel construction, the paint work has an anti-bacterial powder coat finish. This drastically reduces the spread of germs around the school.

Metal Lockers Installation Top Tips!

lockers, lockers measure, lockers installation,.lockers install, lockers guide

Purchasing new equipment for your workplace is exciting. Giving your business, your school, or your offices the makeover it’s been shouting for is what it’s all about. Before you start browsing the web or catalogues to hand, it’s time to draw up your plans. This will save you a lot of time when deciding which lockers, you want. Metal lockers come in various sizes, styles, and combinations so it’s important you know what can fit before delving in!

Let’s look at what you’ll need to measure up beforehand!

Your Measurement Checklist

Grab your pen, paper and measuring tape and let’s get started.

  1. Measure the overall size of the room
  2. Note the ceiling height (and any slopes in the ceiling) and wall partitions
  3. Take note of radiators, skirting boards, pipes, light switches, all sockets, and other electrical fittings.
  4. Window and Door positions (along with their frames)
lockers, lockers measure, lockers installation,.lockers install, lockers guide

Now you have the foundations down, you should be able to assess the ideal location (s) for your Lockers. Great stuff. Let’s look at some other essentials before you explore your options:

  1. Allow for 4mm extra each side of the locker (this allows for doors to open fully and for a bit of breathing space)
  2. Ensure there is at the very least 1000mm between the front of the locker and the adjacent wall (or opposite locker if you’re having them on both sides) – this ensures wheelchair access along with ample space for someone to be stood in front of the locker whilst it’s open.

Metal Lockers Installation Essentials

Fortunately, lockers with Direct2U are incredibly easy to install. As a result, will save you a day of piecing together your lockers. Our fully built lockers can be nested on top of one another and side by side. This ensures you can create a unique look, but more importantly, one that is practical and ideal for what you need them for.

Fixings, bolts, and nesting nuts will always be provided by us. However, let’s tick off some of the essentials you will need to get these lockers up and running!

  1. Spirit level, spanner, drill, and handling equipment
  2. Ensure 2 people are present (if nesting is required) – this is due to the weight of lockers (laminate)
  3. PPE equipment for safety reasons

Drill your lockers together for quick, efficient nesting.

How Do Your New Lockers Look?

Example of changing room lockers and benches we provided to a Primary School.

Ensure the lockers are fixed to one another (or walls if 1800mm high). This is a great way to ensure the safety of your employees or students. This will prevent units from toppling over or falling over, potentially causing serious injury.

Hopefully now you have an idea of what you want and where you want it! We have arranged a selection of lockers below for you to start with. Please feel free to get in touch with us via our telephone or web chat here for more information!

Apollo Lockers

This range of quality made cheap lockers may be the most cost-effective storage solution for many Schools and businesses. Yet, there is no compromise on quality.

With sloping tops, you can prevent accumulation of litter atop the lockers.

Colourful Range of Storage Lockers

There is no shortage of colour choice. It’s important that you have a variety of styles and colours to choose from. This is great if you have a certain colour theme you want to work with.

TUFF Lockers: Hospital Install

TUFF Lockers: Hospital Install

We provide lockers to a huge variety of different sectors for a number of different uses. One of their most popular uses is in hospitals, providing safe and secure storage for staff members personal belongings and uniforms.

We recently provided and installed a range of our bestselling TUFF Lockers to St Peter’s Hospital for use in their staff changing rooms. Take a look below at some images of the lockers after they were installed by our team.

See our range of TUFF Lockers here.

TUFF Lockers in a changing room

Reliable TUFF Lockers

TUFF Lockers are our bestselling range for a good reason. They are simple, effective and reliable. If you need a cost effective storage solution there’s no better lockers to choose.

St Peter’s Hospital opted for 3 compartments per locker. This allows for the user to comfortably store a large backpack, bag or clothing. They also upgraded the lockers with locker stands and numbered doors.

A locker stand (pictured above) helps raise the units off the ground. This allows for easier cleaning around the base of the lockers. This is an absolutely essential upgrade in a hospital environment.

Further improving their lockers, St Peter’s added numbered doors and key fobs. This might not seem like much but it can be invaluable when you have a large number of staff members. It not only helps organise compartments but it also gives users a sense of ownership over their locker.

TUFF Lockers for Whistl

Whistl Lockers Project

Back in March of 2019, delivery company Whistl contacted us looking for some new lockers for one of their staff rooms. As one of the UK’s leading delivery management companies they have a lot of staff working in their warehouses. To make life a little easier, they took steps to upgrade their facilities and offer everyone brand new, secure storage for their belongings. The end goal was to give all members of staff enough space for all the essential items that they need to bring into work each day.

Why TUFF Lockers?

Our TUFF Lockers make for great staff lockers. They come in a whole host of sizes with anything from a single door per locker to six. For Whistl, this variety allowed us to select the exact size they would need to comfortably fit their locker room.

After assessing the room dimensions and taking into account the various walls and pillars, we were able to suggest W400 x D400mm units. This is the largest width and depth we offer TUFF Lockers in, comfortably offering enough space for bags, folded coats and other belongings. With four doors per locker, we were able to fit in enough compartments to fully accommodate all staff with ease.
