Cue Lockers

Here are the cue lockers at Gold Crown Billiards in Erie, PA.

I bought a couple of banks of old post office boxes from a closed U.S Post Office. I then went on ebay and bought size 3 and 4 large doors and in addition, a size 3 eagle door from 1899. Then the work started.

The doors were removed from the cabinets. The cabinets were delivered to a local shop where depth was added to accomodate cues and cases. The cabinets were then faced with Formica. Each door was disassembled. The doors were then stripped of paint, sandblasted, and laquered, to preserve a pollished brass finish. Tinted 1/4" plate glass was cut for each door and sandblasted with a locker number. Each combination lock mechanism was rebuilt and reinstalled.

The cabinets on top store backup case inventory. The size 4 drawers on the bottom store backup cue inventory that cannot be shown in our display cases. There are three size cue lockers with the eight lockers in the middle being the largest.

The lockers have been full for years...all 146 of them.

That's awesome :D
There's ones that look a lot like those, even with the same kind of ABCDEFGH combo lock where I play. Except most of them are 1x1, there are only 4 2x2's and they were all full when I got there :(
 
What a great idea.....it looks incredible......smart, looks good, and I bet it helps pay the bills.....I'm not a room owner, so I hope you don't mind me taking a look on your thread :D

Paul, really looks sharp...great pics...

That is great Paul, and from the looks you have a classy room.

Thanks for sharing

Think those look better than what we got in our commuinty room. We got about 60 of this type,

but the rent is cheap, only $18.00/YEAR.

18.00 a year is cheap to store a cue but 15.00 to play in the BCAPL is too much?

hmmmmm....seems as your motive to call out the BCAPL at every chance just became a little more clear.
