These lockers can be placed in employee break rooms and changing areas. They are made entirely of aluminum and are available as surface mounted or recessed mounted units. “Surface mounted” means that surface mounted units will mount directly to a surface while recessed mounted cell phone locker units fit into a rough opening and are secured with mounting hardware through the back or side panels. Cell phone lockers are also available as a free standing unit if you purchase an enclosure paired with a recessed mounted unit.
These lockers come in aluminum, bronze, and sandstone. They have many customizable options including enclosures, pedestals, door slots, keyed locks, combination locks, resettable locks, and door identification.
