What is a Warehouse Mezzanine?

A warehouse mezzanine system is an elevated floor installed between the ceiling and floor of your existing warehouse space. 

 

Mostly freestanding, these steel structures can be erected and dismantled quickly and easily, making them a popular choice for many growing businesses. 

 

The primary purpose of introducing this type of system in a warehouse is to maximize the storage space available. 

 

Let’s take a look at eight benefits of having a warehouse mezzanine installed below.

Business can continue as usual, even when the installation of the system is underway – installation can also be done out-of-hours if this is more convenient.

Operating a warehouse comes with a lot of costs, such as electricity and water. By incorporating a mezzanine system, you avoid having to pay a second set of these expenses in another warehouse.
