There are a number of uses for storage lockers in the home and at the office. They can be bought in many shapes, sizes and colors so that you are able to match them up to any color scheme in any room. Lockers provide a safe and secure means of storage for your personal belongings in the comfort of your own home or in public places such as at work or at the gym.

When you think of a locker you tend to think back to the days when you were at school or college. The lockers found at schools were old, dented and painted grey. They are definitely not suitable for the home as they will really stand out from the rest of the furniture in the room. Luckily you can buy storage furniture that can be bought in various materials and colors to match your existing furniture. You can buy these lockers in wood, metal or in a very strong plastic. Each of these materials can be coated in a colored paint of your choice. The painted metal and plastic lockers will provide a modern look to the room.

Lockers can be bought as a single or unit or attached in clusters. They can also be set on the floor and if you are limited on floor space, you can mount them onto the wall. Mudroom lockers work well in utility cupboards and are usually mounted onto the wall.

You can store any items you wish in the locker as long as they are not too valuable. It is not really advisable to store valuable jewelry or money even if they do have a lock system. These items should be stored away in a safe which is much more secure. An interesting use is to store cleaning products that could cause harm to your kids. This allows you to store and lock up the products so that they cannot gain access to these items.
