Shopping for metal lockers? Then you have come to the right place. We have one of the biggest ranges you will find online, and we have helped customers with all kinds of needs. The most common question we are asked is ‘what type of metal storage locker should I choose?’ there's nothing we love more than matching our customers to the perfect product, so we thought we would put together a guide to help you make the best choice when you are browsing our selection of storage lockers.
What are you looking to store?
First of all comes the big question. What do you want to store in your lockers? Are you wanting to give your team members a safe place to keep their items during their shift? Do you want to provide a place to keep uniforms? Are you just wanting somewhere to put smartphones and other small items for a few hours? All of these questions might seem obvious, but figuring out what you actually need your lockers for will help you to avoid choosing, say, a small cube locker rather than one made to store PPE.
How much space do you have?
Do you have a small staff area that is serving as somewhere for your team to eat and take a breather, as well as being the place for their lockers? Then you might want to look at ones that make the most of a small footprint, such as two-person lockers. If you have a large space to kit out, then you might want to opt for a range of different lockers for different purposes and create a tailor-made storage space.
Are there hazardous materials involved?
A little bit of a left-field question, we know. However, you would be surprised at how many people think that hazardous materials or other items that could be dangerous if they fall into the wrong hands can be stored in a normal locker. If you do have items that need to be stored very safely, then check out our range of hazardous storage solutions, which include COSHH storage cabinets.
Is the look of your locker important?
We’ve talked so much about function, but what about form, too? If your lockers are going to be in a public-facing area, then you are going to want them to look good as well as do their job. We have a huge range of colour options when it comes to our metal steel lockers, and we also stock buzzbox lockers that are a cut above the rest when it comes to visual appeal.
