Store Protective Gear Properly in a Firefighter Locker

When a call comes in, crews need their protective clothing, boots and helmets within reach in seconds. A firefighter locker gives each member a set place for that gear, so nobody wastes time searching through a shared pile. OzLoka® Australia makes these lockers from heavy duty polyethylene, which stands up to the wet, dirty gear that comes back after every job. Career stations and volunteer brigades both use the same range. 

Fire Station Lockers Designed Around Callouts 

Full length single door units suit jackets, overpants and boots stored together. Rural and volunteer brigades with tighter sheds can use tiered layouts for personal items. Pigeonhole lockers, which have open compartments and no doors, suit gloves and smaller items that need to be grabbed quickly. Each crew member can find their own gear without checking names on a shared rack. 

Damp gear can leave painted steel lockers rusty and stained. Polyethylene won’t rust and cleans up with a hose or damp cloth after a fire or flood callout. Quicker turnarounds between jobs follow when gear has a clean home. 

Station crews can choose from: 

Clothes hooks strong enough for heavy jackets 
Shelves for helmets, gloves and personal torches 
Kicker bases that lift units off wet floors 
Padlock or combination locks for personal items 
Number Plaques matched to crew rosters 

Why Brigades Keep Coming Back to Our Team 

Station lockers get used around the clock, so durability comes first. Polyethylene keeps its shape after years of knocks from boots and equipment. Clean, organised lockers also make post incident checks easier for station officers. Quiet doors also help on night shifts when crews rest between calls. 

Station officers can share bay sizes and crew numbers to get a layout planned around the way the station runs. Fitouts can be staged so the station stays operational during the changeover. Volunteer brigades can request smaller quotes for one or two banks. 

Stations also value: 

  • Rust free lockers for wet gear storage 
  • Layouts planned around bays and crew rosters 
  • Staged fitouts that keep stations fully operational 
  • Advice from a team familiar with emergency services 
  • Colour options that suit brigade or station branding
