A locker with a securable door 24. A locking mechanism comprising an axially sliding bolt/shaft 30 with a locking plate 42 at its rear; the bolt and locking plate rotating between an unlocked position and locked position; the bolt/axle 30 is axially movable between an inserted position (pushed in) permitting rotation of locking plate and a retracted position (pulled out) preventing rotation of the locking plate. A separate front guard plate 32 protects a padlock shackle; when the bolt is retracted a padlock can be locked behind the plate 32 preventing the bolt from being pushed in and preventing rotation of the locking plate 42. Preferably the locking plate includes protruding orthogonal lip 50 to engage in a keeper (fig. 952) upon retraction of bolt/shaft 30. Preferably the bolt/shaft 30 rotates freely to protection plate 32 which may be restrained by walls of a housing 38. It may be a bike locker to store a bicycle.
