Paddington Square is a brand-new working, shopping and dining quarter opening in 2023. The impressive transparent, glass building, also known as Paddington Cube, provides up to 50,000sqm of floor space with offices, retail units, a café, a bar and restaurants. The area underneath the building features the Bakerloo Line Underground Entrance and ticket hall.

Following their work on a marketing suite at Paddington Square, Lucas Ltd were invited back to provide a full back of house painting and fit-out service across the basement, ground and first floor levels. Helmsman were delighted to assist them with the lockers in the project.

The client requested laminate Z Lockers for two sets of changing rooms at Paddington Square. Between the male and female changing rooms they supplied and installed 268 Z Lockers, for 536 people. Z Lockers are a fantastic space optimising locker design, with a small footprint and maximised internal space. As one of the UK’s leading locker manufacturers, they specialise in bespoke locker design. The locker sizes requested were not their standard sizes, so a bespoke Z Locker design was created for the project at 1525 x 325 x 500mm.

As the Z Lockers were for a changing room environment, a wet spec was needed. The body was manufactured from aluminium and stainless steel and powder coated in colour Ice, with the doors manufactured from solid grade laminate from Abet Laminati in colour Sand. Helmsman's laminate lockers provide a modern, heavy-duty finish, perfect for changing rooms where the lockers are to be used on a regular basis. The lockers were finished with a Lowe and Fletcher Hasp lock and black laminate number plates, an aesthetically pleasing pairing.

As always, their installation team worked hard to provide the best finish to the project. Helmsman have enjoyed working alongside Lucas Ltd and look forward to seeing the Paddington Cube finished and open in 2023.
