The county recently renovated a small baseball/softball field, and should also be adding a storage locker for equipment.
Most lockers I've seen aren't big enough to hold the larger aluminum landscaping / infield rakes, as the heads for those are commonly 24-36" wide. Added to that, the handle is also much longer - probably 6' on average.
I really see this kind of rake as essential for maintaining the field. How do you go about storing a rake this size?
I've only found one that's marketed as "collapsible" - I think it's called "Baserunner Rake", but I have to imagine someone at somepoint has had a similar issue and found one with a handle that screws apart easily and is less than $80-$100.
Chaining it the backstop isn't really an option - there's a large playground adjacent, so I could see it easily getting bent or broken if left out in plain site.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
