Patent ID: 7699412

Claim:
A locker comprising: a base defining a storage space; a door coupled to the base and rotatable relative to the base between an open position and a closed position; a latch bar supported at an interior side of the door by at least one projection that engages at least one guide slot in the latch bar, the latch bar being moveable parallel to the door between an extended position and a retracted position, the latch bar being a one-piece bar that is configured to directly engage the base when in the extended position to secure the door in the closed position; and a handle accessible from an exterior side of the door and configured for rotational movement, wherein the rotational movement of the handle causes the latch bar to move between the extended position to the retracted position thereby disengaging the latch bar from the base and allowing the door to be moved to the open position, wherein the latch bar is biased toward the extended position, the extended position being horizontally and vertically offset from the retracted position.
