*Notes*
1. Please avoid BRINKS locks if possible. They are strong locks but the combination mechanism seems to malfunction more often than other brands and we end up cutting them off quite frequently.
2. No sprays of any kind are allowed in the locker room. Please use a roll on type of deodorant for personal hygiene. Thanks for your cooperation.
