   JAMESTOWN,   NY-  (BUSINESS   WIRE)  July  28,  2005  American  Locker  Group
Incorporated announced that, Anthony J. Crisafio, Donald I. Dussing, Jr., Roy J.
Glosser,  Thomas  Lynch,  IV, and Jeffrey C.  Swoveland  resigned  as  Directors
effective July 28, 2005, subsequent to the Company's filing of its Annual Report
on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2004.  Edward F. Ruttenberg,
Alan H. Finegold and Steven  Bregman,  the remaining  Directors,  are recruiting
qualified candidates for appointment to the Board as promptly as practical.

   Mr. Ruttenberg,  the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer,  stated,
"American  Locker Group greatly  appreciates  the  dedicated  service of Messrs.
Crisafio,  Dussing,  Glosser, Lynch and Swoveland on its Board of Directors and,
particularly,  for their  leadership  through the difficult  process this spring
that led to the Board's  adoption of a strategic plan to reduce annual  selling,
general and administrative  expenses  primarily through personnel  reductions in
Jamestown,  New York,  and the relocation of the Company's  headquarters  to its
owned  facilities  in  Grapevine,  Texas,  by the end of 2005.  We currently are
recruiting  qualified candidates to become new Directors to serve the Company as
it implements that strategic plan."
