Welcome to the forum, Bill. It's nlce to see you around! - --Mariana--, Sep 13, 2010
Curioso porque en México "Taquilla" es donde se venden los boletos para alguna función - 005faa61, Sep 13, 2010
En España también, ésta es otra acepción más - bill1111, Sep 14, 2010
taquilla if derived from taque seems the closest in basic meaning - saor, Sep 14, 2010

I wonder if "casillero" is also used.

Hm not really, "casillero" would be used for different divisions in a big cabinet, where you can put stuff like papers and such, but without doors or locks to secure them. - bill1111, Sep 13, 2010
I've heard it called "casilleros" and also "armarios". This may be regional. In Argentina "taquilla" is not used for this at all. - 00e657d4, Sep 13, 2010
At least in Argentina, it would be "casillero." It may depend on the variation of spanish you want. - juancn, Sep 13, 2010

In some places: armario (individual, in a gym), guardabultos (in a hostel), baulera (in a building).
