WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A WAREHOUSE MEZZANINE FLOOR?

Is your company currently outgrowing its space? This is a common problem as businesses get bigger. There could be an easy solution, however; look no further than a mezzanine floor.

Mezzanine floors are bespoke and designed specifically for your building and for what they are being used for.

What Is A Mezzanine Floor?

For those of which who are not familiar, a mezzanine floor is an intermediate level of flooring that is installed between the main floors of a warehouse, office, etc. Often, it is not thought of as an actual floor, as it is usually a semi-permanent solution that help increase storage space.

They are mostly added into warehouses that need extra space and end up becoming permanent solutions as they are so efficient and cost-effective.

Listed below are reasons as to why a Mezzanine floor can have endless benefits when it comes to storage space.

Ability To Maximise Space

One of the main reasons for installing a mezzanine floor is that they can easily maximise space, ensuring that any redundant vertical space is utilised.

Whether it be an office or a warehouse, this can be the perfect way to increase the amount of stock volume available, reduce clutter and overcrowding, as well as help organisation.

They Are Flexible

Another benefit of a mezzanine floor is that they are highly adaptable and flexible. Because of their simplicity they can be tailored to any requirements, meaning they can be multiple storeys, different heights, sizes, and all whilst being reliable and sturdy.

Although a mezzanine floor is not an actual full level in a building, it is still just as reliable, and it can be easily dismantled, extended, and relocated if your needs change in the future.

They Are Cost-effective

Other alternative methods that increase floor space, such as expanding a building, moving to a new one, or building a new floor, all are very costly.

Considering how much time and money will be put into expanding the floor space, it is no surprise that installing a mezzanine floor comes in at a far cheaper and more effective option.

Increased Productivity

There is also added benefits like increasing productivity for example. Imagine a warehouse that is completely full and cluttered (if you must imagine), now imagine how much time would be wasted on finding the right products and making order mistakes.

A mezzanine floor would likely reduce the risk of warehouse incidents, increase efficiency, and all tasks would be completed much quicker and more smoothly.

Keeping Your Current Location

When dealing with an outgrown working space, relocation will be first on the list of solutions. With a customised mezzanine level, all costs and hardships of relocation will be emitted, saving a whole lot of productivity and savings.

You will also not have to deal with other added issues like planning permission when building or extending for example.

Overall, installing a mezzanine floor could truly solve your storage problems. It is a logical, cost-effective option that can make great use of a flexible, functional storage layer. Ultimately, they will save you and your business a lot of time, money, and hassle.
