As an option bracket can be fitted to the lockers for fastening the lockers together or to a wall. If you wanted to secure lockers back to back as an island run you would need lockers fitted with mounting brackets on both the sides and the back of the lockers. this would need to be specified as an option as this is not a standard feature of lockers.

Sloping tops are an ideal way of preventing items being stored on top of the lockers. This is also a non-standard item and would need to be specifically specified as part of a quotation.

Coat hooks are sometimes standard and sometimes a specific option it is far better to ask as fitting later will need to be done by the customer.

Jason Bourne, Berlin and lockers

The Jason Bourne films were partly filmed in Berlin, Berlin is one of the most common cities to be used as part of a film set. During my visits to Berlin, I have seen film units twice. The city is used partly due to a large number of open spaces within the city.

Part of the Jason Bourne film used the river Spree and the Friedrichstrase bridge and railway station, Jason Bourne was on a river barge used a gaff to climb onto the Friedrichstrase bridge to evade the police. At this point, you can hear the classic train noise that is used in the films.

One of the other main filming locations is Alexanderplatz this is a large open space with Alexanderplatz station at one end of the plaza and the Berliner Fernsehturm is a television tower in central Berlin, Germany. Close to Alexanderplatz in Berlin-Mitte, the tower was constructed between 1965 and 1969 by the government of the German Democratic Republic, through this plaza runs the Berlin trams.

This is where Jason Bourne met with Nicky Parsons and boarded the tram to evade the security forces.

During his time in Berlin, Jason Bourne made use of the lockers at the train stations.

Hotel Albrechtshof is an ideal location close to the station which is ideal if you are flying as you can get the train from the airport. The hotel is very German though the staff all speak good English. The hotel also has a chapel in the basement.
