Wenger AirProTM Metal Grid Athletic Lockers

Wenger AirPro Metal Grid Athletic Lockers are part of the GearBoss® family of durable athletic specialties and equipment. AirPro wall- and island- mounted lockers with sturdy tube frames and welded metal grids are virtually indestructible. The off-floor mounting of AirPro lockers enables ease of maintaining team room floor sanitation. The lockers are designed to promote air flow; powder-coated surfaces incorporate anti-microbial compounds to help control fungal growth. AirPro's integrated bench eliminates the need for separate benches, simplifying locker room planning and circulation

AirPro Metal Grid Lockers are available with standard open front design, optional steel tube door frame with grid infill, or optional steel tube door frame with wood infill panels. Wenger Metal Grid Lockers are designed to mount with the top at 78 inches above the floor and available in 18, 24, and 30-inch widths. The welded steel construction allows Wenger to provide a 10-year warranty.
