A 5 door locker packs five compartments into a single full-height frame, giving high-density personal storage where floor space is tight and the stored items are compact — coats, bags, shoes and everyday kit rather than bulky equipment. It is a popular choice for busy changing rooms, staff rooms, gyms and schools that need to serve more people from the same footprint.
Specifying a 5 door locker
These are Probe cold-rolled mild-steel lockers — UK-made, powder-coated and built for heavy daily use. Pick the nest width to match the items going in: single-width columns maximise the number of users, while double and wider formats give each compartment more depth for bags. Doors are available solid or perforated for ventilation in active or damp areas, and tops can be flat for stacking and shelving or sloping to keep public installations clean.
Every compartment is fitted with a Type A cam lock as standard — the only locking type stated across all 67 Probe lockers in our catalogue. Every unit ships ready to floor-fix and to bay into continuous runs.

5 tier, 5 door, 5 compartment — the same thing
Locker terminology is inconsistent across the trade, and it makes specifying harder than it needs to be. A 5 tier locker, a 5 door locker and a 5 compartment locker all describe the same thing: 5 individually lockable compartments stacked in a single column.
-
Tier counts the levels in one column — so every listing on this page is 5 tier.
-
Nest counts the columns joined side by side. A nest of 2 is what we list as double width; a nest of 3 is triple width; a nest of 1 is single width.
-
Bank is the complete assembled unit as delivered. A 5 tier, nest of 3 is a 15-compartment bank.
Nested columns share internal carcass walls, which is why the cost per compartment falls as the nest widens — you buy one set of ends rather than three. It also means a nest cannot be split later, so plan the full run before ordering.
Every 5-door listing we stock is triple width, so a 5-door bank is 15 compartments minimum. The standard metric 5-door is sloping-top only — the one configuration in either range with no flat-top counterpart.
