55 Years Of Expertise
Made in Melbourne. Since 1969.
We’ve been making things that last — right here in Melbourne — since 1969.
What began as R Culpan & Sons, a small metalworking business in Airport West, has evolved into the Culpan Group: a family of brands dedicated to practical, durable manufacturing. From steel fabrication to precision joinery, we’ve grown alongside the changing needs of our clients.
In 2012, the acquisition of AMD Commercial Furniture brought commercial joinery into the group — allowing us to manufacture high-quality laminate and melamine furniture at scale. Today, our Campbellfield facility houses both timber and steel production under one roof, enabling us to build smarter, more complete solutions.
We’ve continued to expand with purpose. In 2025, Lockin joined the group — bringing Australia’s leading custom locker range into our offering.
Across all brands, we design and manufacture products for schools, businesses, emergency services, recreation facilities, and government agencies across Australia and New Zealand.
As a proudly family-owned company, we value loyalty and longevity — in the products we make, the relationships we build, and the people we employ. We stand behind everything that carries our name, and we always will.
School Lockers Buyers Guide
We’ve learned a lot from building school lockers tough enough to handle the daily reality of school life — from teenagers to younger kids. This practical guide will help you confidently choose the right lockers for your school. It breaks down the key decisions — materials, sizes, locks, layouts and finishes — so you can plan with clarity. And when you’re ready, we’re here to share our experience, answer questions and support you with design, specification and installation that fits what your school needs.
Here are our top take-aways:
-
Use full-length piano hinges for strength and longevity.
-
Size lockers to fit backpacks, puffer jackets, books, devices and sports kit — not just textbooks.
-
Choose simple, intuitive locks that work for everyone, every day.
-
Pick the material system that suits your space:
– the warmth and tactility of melamine lockers,
– or our steel-framed melamine lockers, combining a steel body for strength with melamine doors for a welcoming, furniture-like feel.
Our School Lockers Buyer’s Guide explains materials, sizing, layouts, locks, hinges, accessories and how to specify — all in one clear, practical read.
