The Small Metal Locker is a welded steel locker for storing gear at a base. The in-game tooltip says it is for storing all the loot.

It sits in the Furniture part of the Building menu and uses the Welding skill. It comes in Shoddy and a finished version tiers. It stands one tile high, while the Big Metal Locker stands two tiles high. Lockers like this also turn up in buildings across the map, often holding weapons. Building one gives a welder compact storage for a single tile. The finished tier asks for a very high Welding level.

How to Build Small Metal Locker


This recipe must be learned first. The magazine Welder Monthly - May 1993 teaches it. The Welder occupation knows it from the start.

Both tiers take the same materials. Each needs four Steel Sheet - Small, three Iron Pipe and two Door Hinge. A Welding Torch and Welding Rods join the parts. Both are drawn down by the build.

The Shoddy tier asks for Welding level 5 and gives 50 Welding XP. The finished tier asks for Welding level 9 and gives 90 Welding XP.

The finished locker gives a large XP boost near the top of the skill. That makes it a useful late Welding build.

Each version of the Small Metal Locker has its own tab with the skill it needs, the XP it gives and its materials.

It needs Welding level 5. Building it gives 50 Welding XP. The recipe has to be learned first.

How to Use Small Metal Locker


The locker works as a storage container. It holds 40 units of items.

It can be picked up and moved with a hammer at Carpentry level 3. Taking it apart calls for a Propane Torch and a Welder Mask.

Line lockers along a wall in a storage room. Their small size keeps walkways clear.

Build Tiers


Both tiers cost the same steel, pipe and hinges. The finished tier needs Welding level 9 and gives far more XP. Build Shoddy lockers first, then the finished one once the skill is high.

Each version of the Small Metal Locker is listed with the skill it needs, the XP it gives and how much health it has once built.
