The most common place to find school lockers is lining the hallways. This classic setup enables students to pick up whatever they need on the way to class. Rather than carrying around all of the books they need throughout the day and straining their backs, your students can put their jackets, backpacks and books in storage lockers at the beginning of the day and remove items as needed.

A well-furnished locker room helps student athletes focus on their performance and get mentally prepared for important games and matches. Our great selection of gym lockers and athletic lockers will help you determine the optimal choice. Gym lockers have enough space for physical education necessities, while athletic lockers can store larger equipment such as hockey or football pads and baseball bats. We even have locker room benches so athletes have a comfortable place to sit down and suit up.

Lockers can also be a useful thing to have in the teachers’ lounge. They give educators a secure space for purses and other valuable items so they don’t have to worry or carry their possessions around all day. If papers, board markers or other classroom necessities need to be left in school, it is always helpful to have a lockable storage space that is designated for teachers’ personal use.

In a busy work environment, office lockers demonstrate to employees that you care about their possessions. Although many professional settings have personal desks, there are also more active jobs in which workers must move around all day. In such a situation it is hard, if not impossible, to carry around personal items on the job. Employee lockers provide a safe place for your workers’ property so they can go about their workday without concern or distraction.

No matter what purpose you need lockers for, there are many factors that should be considered before a purchase is made. There are many different configurations to choose from including, single-, double-, triple- and six-tier options. Two-person lockers offer an additional alternative to the double-tier option. Rather than leveling the lockers on top of each other, they are configured in a side-by-side arrangement.

There are various handle and lock designs to choose from as well. Built-in combination locks are great because they save students from the hassle of having to purchase their own locks. Hallowell lockers have convenient die-cast handles for easy one-handed opening. Models that do not include a built-in lock usually have a loop on the handle which enables students to apply their own combination or keyed locks.

Louvers are an additional component of locker design. They provide ventilation to contents while maintaining privacy. It is important to have a continuous airflow in lockers in order to diffuse any smell. Ventilation is also helpful if there are wet coats or bags inside because it facilitates faster drying. An additional convenient feature is the slanted top option. This prevents dust from building up on the tops of lockers.

Aesthetic considerations are important as well. Lockers come in a huge selection of both vibrant and muted colors. They can be used to liven up hallways or locker rooms, or made to blend in with your current paint colors. Many of our lockers come with individually-numbered metal plates, which make it easy to assign and identify them.

Steel lockers are an investment that should serve your institution for many years. Making the right selection is important because it can have a real impact on your students and employees.

When students have their own school lockers they don't have to worry about lugging around heavy books and outerwear throughout the day. Rather than leaving things unsecured in an open classroom or carrying them back and forth from home to school on a daily basis, they can simply lock everything up in a metal locker during the day and overnight. With large storage lockers, they can keep everything that is needed throughout the day, and even after school, in one convenient and secure place.

Functionality isn't the only consideration when choosing school lockers. If you are going to be lining school hallways with these storage spaces, it is important to make sure that they are visually appealing as well. Penco lockers are available in a selection of colors. You can choose different colors for each grade to make it easier for each student to find their locker or promote school pride by ordering metal lockers in school colors.

Metal lockers come in a variety of configurations. Single-tier lockers provide the maximum amount of space. They are large enough to fit backpacks, coats, textbooks, lunches, gym equipment and more. Even instruments and extra clothing that is needed after school will fit in easily. Providing enough storage space is especially important for middle and high school students who don't stay in one classroom all day. Because they can't leave personal belongings or books in desks, older students require an alternative space that is large enough for everything that is needed during the day.

If your school has many students and there is not enough hallway space for each one to have a full-length locker, double-tier lockers are a good alternative. They provide a good amount of space per-person while enabling the school to fit twice as many storage lockers in the allotted space. This arrangement is better than making two students share one larger school locker. Double-tier models are still large enough for backpacks, lunches and coats.

Elementary school students who generally stay in one room for most of the day do not require quite as much space outside of the classroom. However, teachers probably prefer not to have bulky coats and extra supplies crowding the learning space unnecessarily. Triple-tier lockers will generally provide enough room for younger students who just need somewhere to keep coats, lunches and extra supplies.

Five- and six-tier lockers can be used in a variety of settings. They will fit well in a locker room or teachers' lounge where small amounts of personal storage are needed. This arrangement provides just enough space for smaller items such as gym uniforms or teachers' personal bags. Rather than having to carry around valuable personal items all day, employees can lock things up in the staff lounge and not have to worry about them while they are working.

When gym lockers take up too much space or student athletes are complaining about unpleasant smells, basket racks offer a great alternative to metal lockers. They provide maximum ventilation while keeping contents secure. The open design of their sides and tops diffuses smells from wet and dirty gym clothing and equipment. With steel baskets and metal racks, you get a winning combination that is ideal for workout rooms, gyms and locker rooms.

Storage isn't the only thing that you need in a locker room. Students also need a place to sit down and suit up or take a moment to relax before running onto the court. Penco locker room benches provide a sturdy and attractive place for athletes to sit as they tie their shoes or lace-up their pads. Locker room benches also create the perfect venue for team meetings and pep talks.

Penco lockers will provide your students with secure and organized storage space in school for many years. With budget-friendly prices and attractive colors, you can get the ideal school lockers for an institution of any size from Hertz Furniture. Don't hesitate to take advantage of the Hertz Design Center's free project-planning services to ensure that you get the most attractive layout and efficient installation.
