Improving security with the power of padlocks

If your business already has a set of resilient, high-quality storage lockers, you can feel fairly confident that your office equipment and your employees’ possessions are safe from theft and accidental damage. Lockers are absolutely perfect for protecting both company property and personal items. However, it’s always possible to make your lockers even more secure. We firmly believe that doing so is always worthwhile.

One of the simplest but most effective ways to make your storage lockers more secure is to invest in padlocks. Here we will take a closer look at the unique benefits of padlocks and explain how they can make your storage lockers safer.

1. Two locks are better than one

Most storage lockers have built-in locks. However, it’s possible for criminals to pick locks or simply force them open. Luckily, it’s much harder for a prospective thief to overcome two locks than one. A padlock can act as a second lock. As a result, they can help to prevent deliberate acts of theft.

2. Replacing faulty locks can be fast and easy

What can you do if a lock on a storage locker breaks? Most storage lockers are built to be as sturdy as possible, but lock-breaking accidents can sometimes occur. Alternatively, a lock may be broken during a deliberate break-in attempt. Under normal circumstances, this would leave the storage locker vulnerable. However, if you have a padlock, you can simply attach it to the locker until its main lock is fixed. Padlocks make perfect substitutes for ordinary locks in emergencies.

3. Deterring criminals is just as effective as stopping them

Padlocks are much more effective deterrents than ordinary locks. They look sturdy and slightly foreboding, which can often put off would-be thieves. Attaching padlocks to your lockers doesn’t just stop criminals breaking into them: it stops them from even trying.
