Let’s talk locking mechanisms…
Choosing your locks is a vital step in buying your perfect lockers. You need to evaluate how many people are going to use the lockers. Here are your options…
Cam locks come with most lockers as standard with 2 master keys, they are designed to be hard to break into. They can be used in a wide range of environments and are easy to use as you don’t have to remember combinations.
The swivel latch locks are one of the most secure locks for metal or laminate doors up to 14mm thick. They enable staff and customers to bring their own padlocks to secure their belongings. These locks are ideal if each locker will be used for multiple people.
Coin return locks are a type of coin-operated lock that returns a coin to the user when they unlock the locker. These are ideal for areas such as changing rooms and general areas.
Coin retain lockers retain the coin from the user after use. This lock is ideal for schools, gyms and changing rooms to ensure safe storage and peace of mind for customers who leave their belongings.
Combination locks are one of the most secure locks as you get to set your own combination. However, they also can be easy to forget which means that only one person can use the locker.
Still stuck on what locker to choose?
We have a wide range of high quality lockers available, that we can’t fit them all into one singular blog. However, you can look at our website for our full range of lockers. Otherwise, contact our experienced sales team for more information and advice!
