What cleaning chemicals are safe to use on office lockers?

Powder-coated steel lockers can be cleaned with most mild household or commercial cleaners — diluted all-purpose cleaners, glass cleaners, or disinfectant wipes (Lysol, Clorox). Avoid abrasive scrubbers, steel wool, or solvent-based cleaners (acetone, MEK) that can damage the powder-coat finish. For laminate locker surfaces, a damp cloth with a pH-neutral cleaner is ideal; avoid prolonged contact with bleach solutions which can yellow some laminate finishes. Hardware (lock cylinders, hinges) should be cleaned with a damp cloth only — avoid introducing liquid into lock mechanisms. In healthcare environments, verify with the lock manufacturer that disinfectant compounds are compatible with the electronic lock's seals.
