Penco Lockers

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.
