Storage lockers might be just what you need to store your stuff in a safe, convenient unit. As the name implies, the lockers can be locked. Remember your locker from school? Storage lockers have come a long way since those days – especially the wooden executive storage lockers. Lockers come in so many sizes and in so many styles that you shouldn’t have a problem finding a storage locker to suit your needs.

 

Different types of storage lockers

 

Storage lockers are available in different sizes, shapes, and styles. Most are constructed of metal, wire mesh, wood, or plastic. Metal is sturdier, wood is more aesthetically pleasing, and plastic is better in damp locales.

 

Metal lockers come in several styles and configurations. One type is like a giant set of filing cabinets on legs. These storage lockers are best for papers, documents, coins, jewelry, and other small items. Another type of metal storage locker is tall and slim, with a single door. Tall items can be stored in these storage lockers. There’s also a metal storage locker in the form of a two-door cabinet, which works well for medium-sized items. Metal storage lockers are available in several colors.

 

Mini lockers are usually constructed of metal. These storage lockers are very small and are suited for coins, keys, and jewelry. Many people use these in their homes as mini-safes.

 

Wire mesh lockers are storage lockers that look like metal cages. Most of these are large and sturdy and come with one or more adjustable shelves. These are ideal for storing large items in your garage, workshop, or bulk storage sites. Since ventilation is provided via the all-mesh construction, these would also work well in gyms and at sports venues.

 

Wooden lockers are often beautiful and look like pieces of furniture instead of like storage lockers. They come in one or two tiers, and multi-unit sets are also available. The solid oak storage lockers have raised-panel doors, crown molding, and a rich, warm finish. These oak storage lockers are the perfect choice for country clubs, executive offices, and upscale gyms.

 

Plastic lockers are lightweight and cost effective. These storage lockers are usually made of high-density plastic that’s tough and rugged. Since plastic is impervious to moisture, the plastic lockers are a great choice for high humidity areas like swimming pools, spas, and steam rooms. The plastic storage lockers are available in much the same sizes and configurations as metal lockers, and several colors are available.

 

How much do storage lockers cost?

 

Storage lockers vary greatly in price, depending on their size and construction materials. A mini-locker usually costs around $10-$15. A tall metal locker starts at around $100, and the same locker in plastic will run about $300. A single executive oak storage locker will cost about $350.

 

Where to buy storage lockers

 

Storage lockers are kind of a specialty item. You might find the mini-lockers in your local stores, but chances are that you won’t find larger storage lockers. Don’t despair! If you’re in need of storage lockers, search online.
