It may be a storage locker to you, but to us it’s our only product and profession.
Thus it was in the pursuit of professional excellence that we combined our team’s decades of experience in construction, metalworking and manufacturing systems to create the U-Build Locker System .
More than just the locker itself, we employ a business system that seeks to eliminate complications and support you in achieving your ultimate goal: getting lockers installed in your building.

Step 1 : Consultation
We may be meeting online, but this is not an online sale.
Instead, you’ll be working with a dedicated Project Manager whose job it is to understand your project and assess if our product will be a good fit.
If it is, they will work with you through completion.
If it isn’t, we still want to help and will offer our best advice. No charge. No obligation.
To prepare your quote, we’ll first ask some basic questions and then perform a careful takeoff from your drawings.
Once we understand the full requirement, your product quote will be good for 120 Days.
Step 3 : Secure Production Space
Great! You like our product, like our price and have chosen to proceed.
It’s now important to let us know. Many projects secure their locker supply a year or more in advance. As a result, our production can be fully booked months ahead.
So don’t procrastinate: Secure your factory time early.
Step 4 : Site Measure
Here’s where we need your help!
We all know there can be a difference between the drawings and the as-built. Maybe not by much, but it happens.
If you have sprinkles, we’ll also ask that you measure the height of each sprinkler above the floor. And please let us know about anything else in the room that we need to accommodate like pipes, vents or mechanicals. Photos can be very helpful.
For that reason, we’ll ask you to confirm the room’s As-Built dimensions.
We’ll need this information for the next step.
Step 5 : Shop Drawings.
With your architectural drawings and as-built measurements in-hand, we now use our CAD systems to layout each locker in your project.
Every wall, door, ceiling and transom panel is assigned a project and serial number so that it can be identified and tracked from production through install and warranty.
Once complete, we will submit the Shop Drawings to you for site and architectural review.
Step 6 : Manufacturing
Making stuff out of metal is what we do best.
Accordingly, our factory and production system has been optimized to make what we think is the best wire mesh locker in the condo storage locker industry.
Starting with a flat sheet of 12-gauge steel, our production team will laser cut, precision bend, laser weld, powder coat and package your order about a week before it is expected to ship.
Step 7 : Mark It.
Every panel and door is now marked with label that indicates
Project Name
Part Number
Serial number (for full traceability)
Manufacture Date
Manufacturer Information
The second set of digits in the Serial Number, corresponds with the part number of a panel or door shown on the Shop Drawings.
This marking helps the installers quickly identify which panel goes where.
Step 8 : Logistics
Getting the lockers to you is the next step.
Lockers are shipped fully wrapped and securely fastened to a durable pallet.
All quotes include a fixed cost for shipping.
A product of Canada, all lockers are exported duty-free to the US under the provisions of the USMCA (formerly NAFTA).
Step 9 : Install Support
The entire point of the U-Build Locker System is to supply you with lockers that are easy to assemble.
We do that by providing :
An Easy to Build Locker Design
Detailed Shop Drawings
Clearly Marked Parts
Specialty Fasteners
Step 10 : 2-Year Warranty
As we’ve said before, we make a great locker !
So it’s no problem for us to stand behind what we build with a 2-Year Warranty.
You won’t need it though. U-BuildLockers are made to last for decades.
