Metal lockersMetal lockers final inspection checklist
Metal lockers final inspection is where the punch list is either short or expensive. This checklist walks the finished work the way an owner or AHJ will see it: devices on, systems running, everything labeled. Each item gets the photo that closes it instead of reopening it. Work is commonly verified against manufacturer's published instructions. Confirm the edition your authority having jurisdiction has adopted.

Who runs it
The locker installer with the GC's superintendent, walking the set run before the owner's walk.
When in the schedule
After lockers and benches are set and anchored, before turnover and before the room is put into use.
The checklist
Every item, and the photo that proves it
The photo count on each row is what RTI would require before the item can be submitted. Copy the list as is, or load it into RTI and let the gate enforce it.
Set and alignment
- 1 photo
Lockers plumb, level and aligned as a run
Units plumb and level, faces in a straight line, tops and bases aligned across the bank, gaps even and fillers fit clean at the ends.
Anchorage
- 2 photos
Lockers and benches anchored to wall and floor
Anti-tip wall anchors into backing and floor anchors set per the manufacturer, benches secured, no run relying on weight alone to stand.
Doors and latches
- 1 photo
Every door and latch operates cleanly
Doors swing free without binding, latches and handles engage and hold, hooks and shelves secure, no racked units catching the doors.
What usually sends this back
The failures are almost always the evidence, not the work
- A run set to the floor but never wall-anchored, so a bank of lockers can tip when a full stack of doors is opened at once.
- Lockers shimmed level individually but not aligned as a run, so faces and doors step in and out along the bank.
- Doors and latches binding because the units were anchored slightly racked, so latches catch instead of closing clean.
Run it with the Photo Gate
A checklist nobody can submit half-finished
Load this list into RTI, stick a QR tag on the area it covers, and the submit button stays locked until every mandatory item is answered and the 4 required photos exist. Approved walks roll into a branded turnover package with a tamper-evident record behind every line.
Submission state
The gate is enforced on the server, so it holds even if the phone is offline when the walk happens.
Common questions
- What does this metal lockers final checklist cover?
- 3 items across 3 sections, covering set and alignment, anchorage, doors and latches. Each item spells out what the person walking the job is actually looking for, not just a box to tick.
- Who should run this inspection?
- The locker installer with the GC's superintendent, walking the set run before the owner's walk.
- When in the schedule should this walk happen?
- After lockers and benches are set and anchored, before turnover and before the room is put into use.
- Why does every item ask for a photo?
- 4 of the 3 items call for photo evidence. A checklist answer without the photo is a claim; the photo is what makes the record worth something in a dispute and lets a reviewer approve work without re-walking the job.
- What most often fails a metal lockers final inspection?
- A run set to the floor but never wall-anchored, so a bank of lockers can tip when a full stack of doors is opened at once. Lockers shimmed level individually but not aligned as a run, so faces and doors step in and out along the bank. Doors and latches binding because the units were anchored slightly racked, so latches catch instead of closing clean.
- Can I use this checklist in RTI?
- Yes. Start a free RTI workspace, build this list as a checklist, and the Photo Gate holds the submit button until every mandatory item is answered and its photos are attached. Approved inspections roll into a branded turnover package with a tamper-evident audit trail.
