What Are Commercial Mezzanine Floors?

Mezzanine floors are steel-based constructions that are installed within an existing building or warehouse. They’re situated between the floor and the ceiling to increase the available floor space.

A commercial mezzanine floor is constructed within an existing building and can be used for additional storage, offices or production areas. Choosing to install a mezzanine is a cost-effective way to maximise your space and can be custom-designed to fit your specific needs.

Warehouse Mezzanine Floor Conversions

Spacelink have provided interior fit-outs for warehouse conversions for over 25 years. Often, dual-purpose spaces require both a floor space for warehouse activity and a separated area for acoustically insulated offices, meeting or break-out spaces. Rather than incur the costs of separate premises, warehouse mezzanine offices are an effective solution. Utilising vertical space, warehouse mezzanine floors avoid intruding on essential production and warehouse activity below. Furthermore, warehouse mezzanine offices may be installed to move existing facilities to another level in order to free up space on the warehouse floor.

Why use a Commercial Mezzanine floor?

The installation of a mezzanine floor can enable companies to utilise unused space above the main floor area which makes it an excellent alternative to moving premises to acquire additional space in order to develop and grow your business at a fraction of the cost.

As mezzanine floor installers we design each floor to meet your individual building requirements, maximising the space at the floor level without minimising the ground floor usage.

The initial Survey and on-site dimensions are surveyed by qualified and skilled engineers to make sure we have the exact details we need to produce your design. As a mezzanine floor company we pride ourselves on not only delivering an outstanding level of design and workmanship but also delivering a project on time and on budget.

Are mezzanine floors suitable for industrial applications?

Yes, and it makes perfect sense to install them in this setting. For example, a busy warehouse floor where goods can be picked, packed and dispatched can sit below the mezzanine office space, which can feature acoustically protected offices, meeting rooms,breakout zones, storage, and kitchenettes.

What Are Commercial Mezzanine Floors Used For?

The purpose of a commercial mezzanine floor is to utilise vertical space. A Mezzanine will cover a specific section of the floor without compromising on the space below. Not only do mezzanine installations introduce a dynamic design but they also bolster a sense of high activity in the workplace. We can also offer mezzanine floors for multiple other uses and business premises such as:

●       Mezzanine Office / Mezzanine Office Block

Commercial Mezzanine Floor Health and Safety

Ensuring health and safety regulations are considered is crucial when it comes to installing a commercial mezzanine floor. Building codes and safety standards must be followed. One important regulation to consider is fire safety.

If the mezzanine floor is being used for any purpose besides storage such as offices or workshops, it will need to be fire rated. Also, if the floor is greater than 20 meters each way or if it covers more than 50% of the warehouse floor where it’s being installed, it will need to be fire rated.

Additionally there may be the need to use fire resistant materials, the installation of fire doors and smoke detection devices fixed above and below the mezzanine floor. There should also be handrails present wherever there are stairs.
