Industrial Mezzanines
Industrial mezzanines are stand-alone structures that are normally constructed within a building or another type of open facility. They are typically designed as large square or rectangular shaped decks, providing open space directly below the mezzanine. As a result, clear space is maximized both on top of and below the mezzanine.
Industrial mezzanines are available in a number of configurations. Structural mezzanines move open space to the top of the mezzanine and contain shelving or rack units below. Free-standing mezzanines do not have these structural reinforcements, but make use of columns to support the mezzanine and the weight of its load. Many mezzanines are modular as well.
Industrial mezzanines are not only used in warehouses or plants; they have also been custom-designed for facilities such as wineries, archives, churches, automotive dealerships, distribution centers, and food processing plants. Industrial mezzanines can also transform vertical warehouse space into an office space, complete with lights, outlets, doors, and windows.
