Subject: OT: Gym Locker Theft, Live and Learn
I would say any combo lock that doesn't have a key cylinder on the back (as
some Master Lock have) should do.

I'd also be worried about another way into the locker. Is the top fastened
properly? Door working correctly? The one on the other side of the row
(broken back wall)?

Thieves tend to target those who don't go the extra mile to protect their
stuff. A good lock won't stop them but it might make them look elsewhere.

Sorry you got ripped off.
