Coin Locks: The Solution to Protecting Valuables in a Commercial Setting

Coin Locks Are the New Cubbies.

Remember when people used to leave their valuables in cubbies while they went swimming or worked out? Though cubbies were always a tempting target for thieves, they used to be sufficient for some locker rooms and public areas, but that was before everyone carried their lives around with them—in their easily stealable phones. And before electronic key fobs made it easy to pick up a set of keys and find the right car in the parking lot. But there’s an easy solution—one that can even generate revenue. Install coin operated lockers locks.

Coin operated locks require users to insert coins or tokens in order to open the locker. Some models return the coin while others keep it as a locker fee (that’s the revenue generating bit). Coin operated locker locks are especially valuable in public places with high turnover like:

  • Public recreation centers
  • Transportation stations
  • Healthcare facilities
  • Concert venues
  • Water parks
  • Museums
  • Shopping malls
  • Ski resorts 

And more!

Coin operated locks are also a great choice for pay toilets. Though pay toilets have not been commonplace in the US for several decades, coin operated bathroom locks are still widely used in Europe, in the UK, and in some parts of Canada. Pay toilets may also see a resurgence in the US, as some activists support the use of coin operated bathroom locks as a solution to the current dearth of public toilet facilities.
