Lockers & Personal Storage — Expert Answer
Can office lockers be used for pharmaceutical or medication storage?
Standard office lockers are not appropriate for controlled substance or regulated pharmaceutical storage — those require DEA-compliant narcotics safes or specific pharmaceutical storage units with audit trails and high-security locks. For non-controlled personal medications (employee's own prescription drugs, OTC items), a standard keyed or electronic locker provides reasonable personal storage. Healthcare facilities with controlled substance management needs should consult a specialist rather than adapt standard office lockers. If you're building a medication room for non-controlled personal medications, verify your specific compliance requirements before selecting locker type. FindOfficeFurniture.com — 888-719-4960.
