About the Quick Ship Options
Slope tops are often used instead of flat tops to prevent the accumulation of dust and debris, and to discourage the use of locker tops as a storage areas. Two kits are needed for the 4 Compartment Locker. One kit contains 3 tops, 3 backs and 4 ends and the other 1 top, 1 back and 2 ends. We also offer factory assembly for your lockers (add 5 days to manufacturing time) and, because lockers must be floor or wall anchored for safety purposes, a set of concrete anchors.
About Additional Quick Ship Accessories
Standard vertical angle or wall angle (slip joint) fillers provide a professional, finished appearance. Fillers can be used to cover columns, pipes or other obstacles in a row of lockers, or fill the gap between the lockers and a wall. All filler styles are available in our Locker Accessories.
Many locker orders arrive via freight truck. If you have a clearance issue or need to have your order unloaded from the semi truck, please contact our customer service department for pricing on liftgate and/or inside delivery.
