Product Description
This five-compartment locker from Elite Lockers uses a coin return mechanism to control access — users insert a coin to secure their compartment and retrieve it when they leave. There are no keys to issue, track, or replace, and no combinations to reset between shifts, which removes a common administrative burden in environments where staff turnover is high or shift patterns change frequently.
The unit is constructed from powder coated steel finished in red, which offers reasonable resistance to the knocks and daily wear typical of busy changing rooms and staff corridors. An anti-bacterial coating on the steel frame is a practical consideration for catering and food service sites, where hygiene expectations reasonably extend beyond the kitchen itself. The doors are reinforced and the compartments are divided by a welded plinth, contributing to the overall rigidity of the unit. Pre-drilled fixing points at the rear allow the unit to be secured to a wall — something worth doing in any working environment where stability under daily use matters.
Practical operational advantages include:
- Coin return system requires no key management or combination resets
- Anti-bacterial steel coating supports hygiene compliance in food service settings
- Reinforced doors and welded plinth provide solid compartment security
- Pre-drilled wall-fixing points allow straightforward, secure installation
- Red finish supports colour-coded storage schemes or site zoning
At 300mm deep, this locker suits corridors, ancillary rooms, or changing areas where floor space is limited. It is a single-column, five-door configuration — if your site needs to accommodate a larger team, multiple units or a wider locker bank would be the more appropriate solution. The red powder coat also makes it a practical option where colour-coding of storage areas forms part of your site management or brand scheme.
This unit is well suited to smaller catering operations, hospitality venues, pubs, and food retail environments that need reliable, low-maintenance staff storage without the overhead of key control. Sites with a significantly larger workforce or where staff require more generous personal storage should consider a wider or deeper configuration.
If you are weighing up the right format for your changing area or are unsure how many units your site requires, the team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The unit provides five individual compartments, so it is most practical for smaller teams or as part of a bank of multiple units where headcount is higher. If your site runs overlapping shifts and not all staff are on-site simultaneously, five compartments may be sufficient — but for larger teams, additional units or a wider locker configuration would be a more suitable approach.
- The coin return system is largely self-administering — users supply and retrieve their own coin, so there is no float to manage or coin collection required by the operator. The mechanism is designed for the current British £1 coin, which avoids the need for tokens or a separate coin-issuing process. Periodic checks to ensure the mechanism is operating freely are sensible practice, but day-to-day management overhead is minimal.
- Yes, it is well suited to catering and food service settings. The anti-bacterial coating applied to the steel frame is a relevant consideration for sites where hygiene standards extend into staff changing and welfare areas. The powder coated steel finish is reasonably durable against the conditions typical of back-of-house environments, though as with any locker, it is best positioned away from direct moisture or steam exposure.
