Locker door and frame assembly

A locker door and frame assembly, said assembly including;

• a one-piece metal locker door having a central rectangular panel and a pair of integral box beam supports, said rectangular panel having outer and inner surfaces, a pair of opposed side edges, and a pair of opposed end edges, said integral box beam supports being at the extreme side edges of said rectangular panel, each of said side edges being provided by a first outer marginal fold zone extending the length of the side and each of said box beam supports being provided by a marginal portion of said locker door integrally joined to said panel through a respective first outer marginal fold zone and extending outwardly of said panel, each of said marginal portions including multiple, adjacent marginal areas integrally joined to each other through additional marginal fold zones spaced outwardly from said first outer marginal fold zone, said marginal areas of each of said marginal portions being bent along said first outer marginal fold zone and said additional marginal fold zones to form each of said integral box beam supports, each of said integral box beam supports including a first marginal area joining said panel through said first outer marginal fold zone and extending approximately perpendicular to said panel and outwardly from said inner surface at the extreme side edge of said panel, each of said integral box beam supports including at least two additional marginal areas within the perimeter of said panel and being bent relative to each other along one of said additional marginal fold zones, one of said at least two additional marginal areas being directed inwardly toward said inner surface and the other of said at least two additional marginal areas extending parallel to and flush against the inner surface of said panel and being joined to said one of said at least two additional marginal areas by one of said additional fold zones, said one of said additional fold zones being transversely spaced inwardly from the first outer marginal fold zone;
• said frame including transversely spaced apart side frame members having outwardly facing front surfaces and transversely spaced-apart, side surfaces that face each other, said metal locker door being disposed within the frame with the first marginal area of each of said integral box beam supports being disposed in contiguous, overlying relationship with an adjacent side surface of said frame and with no portion of said locker door overlying an outwardly facing front surface of said frame;
• hinge means directly connected to a first marginal area of one of said integral box beam supports and to an adjacent side frame member for pivotally connecting said locker door to said frame through one of said integral box beam supports;
• a single-point latch means adjacent the side edge of the door remote from the hinge means for use in locking the door to the frame at only a single location spaced intermediate the opposed end edges of the door.
