The Art of Customisation: Why It Matters

Customising lockers in Australia is an art that transforms generic storage into a perfect fit for your space. Whether it’s a Sydney office needing branded units or a Tasmanian school requiring durable, kid-friendly designs, customisation enhances functionality and reflects your identity.

According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, there’s been a 20% rise in demand for tailored workplace solutions since 2023. Additionally, Safe Work Australia recommends fit-for-purpose equipment to support site safety and compliance.

At Office Furniture Designs, with over 25 years of expertise, we understand that one size doesn’t fit all.

Custom lockers empower organisations to design storage that works with their layout, user behaviour, climate conditions, and even branding. Want to reduce noise in an open-plan office? Choose soft-close hinges. Need quick-access lockers in a medical clinic? Opt for ventilated doors and antimicrobial finishes. When lockers are part of daily workflow, customisation isn’t just a perk; it’s essential, as highlighted in our Healthcare Lockers guide.

Customisation Options for Every Setting

Workplaces benefit from digital locking, name plates, coat hooks, and climate-ready finishes that combine security and convenience.

Schools can customise lockers with colour-coded zones, reinforced doors, and adjustable interiors to suit all year levels.

Gyms and Fitness Studios require customisation for humidity, hygiene, and high traffic. Drainage trays and rust-resistant metals make all the difference.

Medical Facilities need antimicrobial panels and touchless access to maintain hygiene in shared storage zones.

Construction & Mining Sites benefit from UV-stabilised coatings and reinforced frames built for harsh Australian environments.

Hybrid and Remote Work Hubs often require tech docks, slimline profiles, and wheels for agile use.

And of course, design doesn’t stop with structure. You can choose colourways, finish types, ventilation styles, and internal configurations, building storage that’s as attractive as it is functional, with ideas from our Locker Accessories guide.

Why Customisable Lockers Are Outpacing Generic Models

Generic locker setups are often outdated, mismatched with user needs, and space-inefficient. Customisable lockers allow every unit to serve a purpose, whether it’s storing tech, uniforms, tools, personal belongings or paperwork. The rise in hybrid workspaces, co-working hubs and micro-campuses in Australia means that storage needs are constantly evolving, as discussed in our Ultimate Guide to Lockers.

Customisable lockers solve this by reducing clutter in hotdesking environments, improving productivity by reducing lost items, enhancing user satisfaction with personalisation options, supporting workplace wellness through layout-sensitive designs, and allowing flexibility when reconfiguring spaces. Over the long term, custom lockers reduce the need for frequent replacements or retrofits, making them a smart, sustainable investment.

Case Studies

Case Study: Melbourne Fitness Centre
In May 2025, a Melbourne fitness centre customised lockers with mirrors, ventilation, and branded panels. The fitout was completed in just four days, and member satisfaction jumped 20%, thanks to smoother usability and enhanced appearance. The weatherproof coating also prevented wear during seasonal rains, proving the value of investing in locker customisation.

Case Study: Alice Springs School
An Alice Springs school upgraded its locker system with UV-resistant panels and adjustable interior compartments. Within a semester, the school reported a 15% reduction in maintenance issues and a 25% improvement in student organisation. The colour-coded sections also fostered school spirit, linking locker areas to house teams.

Case Study: Perth Industrial Site
At a remote site near Perth, custom lockers made from rust-proof steel and configured with internal shelves helped reduce tool misplacement by 30%. Branding decals on each unit added professional polish, while the rugged build quality delivered measurable gains in worker satisfaction and productivity.

Benefits of Customised Lockers

  • Space Efficiency: Made-to-measure designs maximise tight spaces or irregular layouts.
  • Durability: Use weatherproof, impact-resistant materials that survive tough conditions.
  • Security: Lock types range from padlock to RFID and keypad access, enhancing safety.
  • Cleanliness: Ideal for medical and fitness settings with easy-clean, antimicrobial finishes.
  • Brand Alignment: Integrate colour schemes, logos, and signage into your fitout.
  • Eco-Responsibility: Choose low-VOC paints and recycled metal.
  • Adaptability: Mobile work locker solutions allow for reconfiguration as spaces evolve.

Trends Shaping Locker Customisation in 2025

  • Smart Integration: Digital access via mobile, fingerprint, or RFID is becoming standard in offices and gyms, a trend from our Digital Lockers guide.
  • Sustainability Focus: More buyers ask for lockers made with ethically sourced, recyclable materials.
  • Modular Thinking: Locker banks can be rearranged, stacked, or downsized as staff numbers change.
  • Visual Design: Lockers feature natural woodgrains, matte textures, and custom brand colours.
  • Built-In Tech: Device docks, power outlets, and UV-sanitising compartments are on the rise.
  • Climate Adaptation: From heat-resistant exteriors in Darwin to corrosion-proof internals in coastal regions, lockers are built for Australia’s extremes.

Choosing the Right Customisation Partner

Here’s what to look for when selecting a locker supplier:

  • Experience with multi-sector fitouts
  • Australian manufacturing with materials suited to local conditions
  • Customisation advice from in-house design consultants
  • Transparent pricing, install timelines, and aftercare
  • A strong warranty (we offer up to 20 years)
  • End-to-end service from layout planning to delivery and assembly
