What is the fire safety consideration for locker rooms and banks?

Steel lockers are inherently non-combustible, but locker rooms can accumulate flammable personal items inside compartments. Facility managers should ensure locker areas have proper fire suppression coverage (sprinkler heads) and are not used to store hazardous materials. Egress aisles between locker banks must be maintained at a minimum 36" clear width per fire code. Locker bases elevate the unit to allow sprinkler water to flow under the bank.
