Information on Locker Room Displays

[joelsabi]

What do you think of this as a baseball locker setup? does this look like an authentic looking locker or is this for show? anyone know of a good place to buy a lock display?

I just found a "locker" at IKEA for $50. It is actually an armour, but I didn't put on the doors. As soon as I saw it, I said to myself thats my locker. I'll take pics and display.

[B1SON]

By the wat though, yours looks great too. In fact yours probably looks nicer. I was just so excited I got one that I liked for only $50.

photos would be great. this locker sells for $500 and is suppose to be a replica of a pittsburg steeler locker. i want a baseball locker. Anyone have photos of what might work.


If I am not mistaken, Howard Blake may have just purchased one...
though from the way he describes it, it is probably still sitting in his garage ;)

the memorial stadium locket is awesome.
has anyone seen someone's collection in this type of locker display or know a company who makes similar display cases. i saw one at a national 10 year ago and i cant find that company anywhere.

You can get stuff like this at stores like Wal-Mart if you're really hoping to get off cheap

[grandpahoo]

My bad - GrandpaHoo found one from Memorial Stadium...it is older, but looks cool. Here is a link to the photos, etc.

Also, you're 100% correct - it'll be in my garage, at least until I figure out how in the hell I can get it inside. I think it's about 10" wider than the doors to our house.

B1son - how do you keep the stuff from sliding around with the locker laying on its side like that? :)

Seriously, nice display. That thing looks BIG!

2 weeks ago when we were in Minneapolis to watch my mighty Bison beat up on the Golden Goofers, we stopped at IKEA near the mall of America. Almost to the check out in the middle of the isle it was on display with boxed up versions sitting next to it. I stopped dead in my tracks and said, "thats my locker. Well, maybe without the doors." To which my wife said, "It's only $49.99!". It was in the "warehouse" part where chair and kitchen tables are on display with the bexed version right beside them. Does that help? Thanks for the compliments. I absolutely love it.

[geoff]

I hope it does.
Thanks

This is one of the best wardrobe closets that comes close to looking like an actual baseball locker

The cost of this as advertised is 290, but if you do not get the doors it drops it a little under 200.

Remember with Ikea you can add/take away drawers, rods, or shelves.

I have one and it looks just like a Locker and its almost as deep and tall as them.

Definitly one of the best quality items for that baseball feel.

Is there an item # for this locker ??

[stlbats]

That must have been a closeout or something, I cant find anything on their website like that for that price.

It's an armour and no ti is not on their website or in the catelog you can pick up on the way out the door. Maybe it was a close out. I don't know. I know I bought it at the MOA IKEA 2 weeks ago for $49.99. Of course all the boxes and manuals are thrown out. I would take the pic to the store and tell them to find it for you or have them call the MOA store, describe it and have them give them the model #.

Just show them the pic, tell them the price and tell them there are doors on their model as well that I didn't put on. Please let me know if you find it.

Your photo is of a Caseworks locker style display case, lowest prices are on ebay but these are pretty pricey... and built like a shadow box with alot of black plastic on the sides, top and bottom showing. I have one of their jersey cases and dislike the protrusion from the wall.

I went today to my local Ikea Store and bought the same Locker as Joe did.The kind of locker is called a Hajdeby Wardrobe Edition 1.
The Locker I bought was an AS IS Item and I paid $55.00 for mine.They had new ones in boxes and the regular price is $79.99.Not a bad price either for a nice looking locker.They had other Lockers also that were sweet looking but they were a few Hundred Dollars.
I had a hard time getting it home but it will be worth it.What is the best way to display the jerseys inside the locker and a cheap way to protect my jerseys from dust and dirt and at the same time look nice to display.

Thanks
Geoff

Geoff,

Glad you found it. Weird that mine was $49.99 in the box but anyway. I can't help you on displaying them in there. I display my NDSU jerseys of no particular player just own for showing different styles over years in the locker on wood hangers. My "good" jerseys go in shadow boxes on the wall! ;)

[geoff]

Thanks for letting me know about the Lockers at Ikea.I think its a good idea and a nice way to display jerseys.

I couldn't agree more.
