Four British manufacturers, one supplier
We are authorised distributors for Probe, Elite, QMP and Garran, and all four make their lockers in the UK.
Working with four manufacturers means we can choose the right locker for the job rather than push a single manufacturer's range. If one manufacturer doesn't offer the compartment size, lock or finish you need, another usually does. We supply the steel ranges from all four, along with Probe's ZENBOX aluminium and TIMBERBOX timber-effect lockers.
For device charging, we also supply LapCabby, a manufacturer of charging trolleys, cabinets and lockers for laptops and tablets.
Who we supply
If your organisation has staff, pupils, members or visitors who need somewhere secure to keep their belongings, we can help. Our customers range from small offices and workshops to factories, warehouses, hotels, NHS trusts, schools, colleges and universities, leisure centres, swimming pools and golf clubs, councils, the emergency services and government departments.
Each sector has its own quirks. A wet changing room needs a different material from an office corridor, and a shift-working site where lockers are shared needs a different lock from one where everyone keeps their own. We'll talk that through with you before you order, because it's much easier to get right at the start than to put right afterwards.
Phone storage for schools
More and more schools are going phone-free during the school day, and the right storage makes the difference between a policy that works and one that doesn't. There is no one-size-fits-all answer, so we'll help you work through the options:
- Individual or shared storage: a lockable compartment for each pupil, or a form teacher managed locker with one door and 40 phone slots
- Where phones are kept: at the school entrance, by year group or in each classroom
- How compartments are locked: key, combination or smart locks
- Whether phones need charging, and with which connections: 3-pin, USB-A or USB-C
- Wall-mounted or floor-standing, depending on the space available
- Clear-door or Perspex-fronted compartments, so staff can see at a glance which are in use
How we work
Free design, layout and quotation
Our design and quotation service is free. We'll help you choose the right lockers, plan the layout and compartment sizes, and include an installation price if you need one.
In most cases your own floor plan or site drawings are all we need to work out how many lockers you need and where they should go, so there's no waiting around for a site visit. Where required, a site survey can be arranged by appointment.
Made to order
Every locker we supply is made to order from the manufacturers’ standard ranges, so you choose the size, lock type and colour to suit your site. Bespoke lockers are possible on some projects, but most customers find what they need within the standard ranges.
Lead times and delivery
Lead times depend on the manufacturer and the specification. If you need lockers quickly, our Express range includes selected products usually despatched within five to seven working days. Most steel and wall-mounted lockers take around ten working days. Aluminium lockers and lockers with solid grade laminate (SGL) or MFC doors take longer, at around 20 to 25 working days.
Delivery is free to UK mainland addresses on most products. The Scottish Highlands and some postcodes are excluded.
If you are working to a deadline, such as the start of term or a building handover, tell us the date the lockers need to be in use and we'll plan back from that.
Nationwide installation
Installation is available throughout the UK as a chargeable service, usually on larger projects. When we install, supply, delivery and fitting are all handled by one company. If anything needs sorting out on the day, there's one number to ring, not a supplier and a fitter pointing at each other.
Replacement keys, locks and spares
Lost keys are a fact of life. We supply replacement keys, locks, padlocks and smart locking systems, so your lockers stay in use for years after they are installed.
Accounts and ordering
Schools, universities, councils, NHS trusts and government organisations can open a 30-day account with us straight away and order against a purchase order. Other organisations can apply for a credit account, subject to our standard credit checks. We always aim to give you the best price we can, with bulk discounts on larger projects, and every quotation is free and without obligation.
