Warehouse Mezzanines: The Nuts and Bolts![Mezzanine](/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/3031.jpg)
A warehouse mezzanine, or a structural mezzanine or an industrial mezzanine or whatever you would like to call it, is an intermediate floor (or platform) in-between the bottom floor of your warehouse and its ceiling. The mezzanine will typically have a stair system that is attached to one of the sides of the platforms, or can be built to come up through the middle of the mezzanine platform if needed for space reasons. They are standard engineered to hold 125 pounds per square foot, but can be reinforced to hold increasing amounts of weight. Also,the mezzanines are furbished with one of these five decking options: Advantech, Resindek, grated steel, diamond plating, or concrete. Overall, mezzanines offer warehouses a great way to make the most out of their overhead room.
Your Warehouse Storage Solution
Inevitably, after installing a mezzanine into your warehouse, you will probably find yourself wondering why you didn’t think of this sooner. The new mezzanine will provide you with a convenient, new storage space that can practically double the area of your warehouse. Now you will not have to worry about the clutter and messiness of your warehouse, instead you’re going to need to figure out what to do with all of this new room! For the majority of companies, a mezzanine provides them with more room to place materials and product. However, mezzanines can easily be multipurpose to perform various functions in different settings. We have created platforms to be used to work on passenger airliners and locomotives. We’ve made catwalks that span entire factory floors, making employee transport safer and easier. And we regularly engineer modular offices on top of mezzanines that can easily weather a factory or warehouse environment.
