Metal lockers are typically made from sheet steel that is stamped and formed into the desired shape. Here are the general steps involved in manufacturing metal lockers:

  1. Cutting the steel sheets: The steel sheets are cut into the required size and shape using a shear or a cutting machine.

  2. Forming the steel sheets: The steel sheets are then formed into the shape of the locker panels using a stamping machine or a press brake.

  3. Welding the locker panels: The locker panels are welded together to form the locker box. The welds are typically ground smooth to create a seamless appearance.

  4. Adding doors and shelves: Locker doors and shelves are typically added to the locker box using hinges, brackets, and screws. The doors are often equipped with locks or other security features.

  5. Finishing the lockers: The lockers are then cleaned, painted or powder-coated, and labeled with identification tags or labels.

  6. Quality control: The finished lockers are inspected to ensure they meet the required specifications and standards.

The specific manufacturing process may vary depending on the type and design of the locker. However, most metal lockers are made using similar techniques and processes.
