If you think a locker at Noisebridge would be useful, you are invited to attend a meeting of [[Locks!|the lockpicking group]]. They meet infrequently, usually on Sundays, but if you're interested someone would probably be glad to teach you about the realities of locks some other time too.
You see locker refresh notices on some lockers that haven't been used recently.

==Some People Don't Like The Idea Of Locking Things At Noisebridge==
==HOW TO LOCKER AT NOISEBRIDGE==


Patrick, maybe you could use this space to list the [https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-discuss/2011-February/thread.html#21036 many] [https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-discuss/2011-February/thread.html#21081 reasons] people have taken the time to write about ''why'' they don't want lockers? Not people, mind you, but people's concerns. And then, maybe you could actually address them, or at least acknowledge that you've understood them in the slightest, instead of talking past them and arguing against straw men. (For instance, I'm pretty sure nobody has said they're concerned that using lockers would become mandatory, so you can stop emphasizing that they would be optional.)
#Put a lock on an empty locker
#Put a note/tag/sticker/whatever on the locker with your name and the date, contact info is useful too
#Party. Hard.


Alternately, if you're ready to drop this idea (as [https://www.noisebridge.net/pipermail/noisebridge-discuss/2011-February/021082.html you recently said you were]) please consider editing this page to reduce it to the first two or four sentences.

The above being said, there is ongoing discussion of re-organizing the member shelves, hack shelves, and also possibly day-use shelves into an organized set of lockers.  This is a lively and ongoing debate.
#Put fresh "[[still in use verification]]" sheets on each locker. The sheets should have blank name/date fields and a deadline to sign and date it by.
#Announce the upcoming garbage collection pass to lockers@lists.noisebridge.net
#Wait a reasonable period of time. For example, one month is pretty darn reasonable. Two weeks seems ok if you are extra careful to hunt people down on the mailing list and proxy sign their sheet. Some locker users might be out of town and need the extra time.
#Cut off the locks from all the lockers that have blank "still in use verification" sheets and have not been claimed in response to the announcement.
#Put the contents in an egg crate on the project shelves labeled with the Locker #


As the plan exists now:
* '''Both''' member shelves and day-use shelves would be consolidated with lockers.
* Some '''(not all)''' shelves would be re-purposed for use as additional hack shelves or shelves for larger projects.
* Lockers could '''optionally''' be closed, so nobody else can see your stuff (out of sight, out of mind).
* Lockers would use '''optional''' bring-your-own-lock security.
* Lockers would also be numbered, un-labeled, and anonymous.
* Hack shelves would remain as separate shelves, publicly accessible to everybody.  Keeping hack shelves separate from the lockers will hopefully result in people feeling more confident in using stuff on the hack shelves.
