Made in Melbourne. Since 1969

We’ve been making things that last — right here in Melbourne — since 1969.

From our beginnings as a small metalworking business, we’ve grown into a family-owned group manufacturing steel and timber solutions under one roof — supporting schools, workplaces, and public facilities across Australia and New Zealand.

Across every brand, our focus remains the same: practical design, reliable manufacturing, and products built to last — backed by a family-owned business that values long-term relationships.

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.

Case Study: Yarra Valley Water Lockers

Yarra Valley Water required a locker system that could support flexible, hot-desk working while allowing desks to be cleared and cleaned between uses.

AMD Commercial Furniture manufactured distributed electronic locker clusters designed to support frequent staff movement, shared workspaces, and minimal ongoing maintenance.

The result: reliable personal storage that enables flexible office use without disrupting daily operations.

What our clients say

 

We’ve used them for more than 11 years now.

 

Honestly , they’re one of my favourite suppliers – good product + always dependable.

 

They’re good guys – simple to deal with.

 

Our client’s fit-outs rarely neatly match a catalogue – we simply hand them the specs and they make-to-order.

Frequently Asked Questions

When we’re not busy making steel furniture, we love chatting with our customers to create amazing solutions. Here are some of the queries we’re often asked about our products.

 

Still have a question? Talk to us and get the answers you need

Do you import your products or make them?

We believe in Australian made. All our products are made in Melbourne at our purpose-built facility in Campbellfield.

Warranty?

The shortcut answer is if we make it, we guarantee it for 10 years. This guarantee covers faults in materials and workmanship but does not include damage from normal wear and tear or improper use. However, some components—such as locks or other parts supplied by third-party manufacturers—have a separate warranty, typically one year. Consumable parts like batteries are also excluded from the 10-year coverage. Make sure to read the T&C’s for the full details.

Can I choose any coloured board?

We offer a wide range of high quality colours and finishes from Laminex and Polytec. Choose from our popular Standard or Prestige Ranges, or customise with a colour match to fit your brand or design. Simply let us know your requirements, and we’ll provide a quote.

What is the production lead time?

We understand the importance of quick delivery, so we manage production and supply chains to minimise lead times. Lead times can range from a few weeks to longer, depending on materials and demand. For example, products with standard boards are typically completed faster than those using specialised, made-to-order boards. The production lead time will be included in your written quote and confirmed with your order.

How do I get a quote?

To request a quote, fill out the form by clicking the ‘Get A Quote’ button on any of the product pages on this website or use the ‘Contact Us’ form published in the footer. You can also call us directly. We typically respond within 2-3 business days, though quotes for large projects may take longer because of their complexity. If you have a commercial account, you can request a price list for quick costings on standard items via the Contact Us form or by calling us.

Do you offer a measuring service?

As a B2B manufacturer, AMD respects the direct relationship you have with your customers. Once you’ve identified your customer’s needs and required sizes, we can review the specifications, offer any expert insights, and manufacture to your exact requirements.

Do you deliver?

Yes, we deliver to most metropolitan Melbourne locations, and delivery costs will be included in your quote. For other destinations, we can arrange freight. Alternatively, you can book a pickup from our loading dock at our production site in Campbellfield.

Can you deliver directly to my customer?

Yes, we can arrange delivery directly to your client or a third party. We’ll ensure no invoice is included with the goods, allowing you to invoice your customer directly.
