Mezzanine Floor

In industrial applications, mezzanine floor systems are semi-permanent floor systems typically installed within buildings, built between two permanent original stories. These structures are usually free standing and in most cases can be dismantled and relocated.

Commercially sold mezzanine structures are generally constructed of three main materials; steel, aluminium, and fibreglass. The decking or flooring of a mezzanine will vary by application but is generally composed of b-deck underlayment and wood product finished floor or a heavy duty steel, aluminium or fibreglass grating.

Advantages of a Mezzanine Floor

A mezzanine floor will allow you to utilise the currently unused space in your building to potentially double your existing floor space. The mezzanine will give greater flexibility of use without the additional cost of rent, rates or heating and without the inconvenience of having to relocate, therefore a mezzanine floor from K & A Furness Ltd provides an extremely cost- effective method of expanding your business.

Bespoke Mezzanine Floor Manufacturing

In its simplest form a Mezzanine Floor is a structural steel platform which is entirely freestanding within your building, fixed only at floor level to the existing floor slab. At K & A Furness Ltd our focus is on the customer’s specific requirements and unlike many other providers we manufacture all our floors within our dedicated mezzanine floor manufacturing facility. This gives us greater flexibility enabling us to better meet the needs of our customer and ensures we have full quality control at every stage.

Mezzanine Floor Prices

Every mezzanine platform we provide is a fully bespoke product designed with the customer’s needs in mind. With some approximate building measurements, we can give you a budget price.

If your mezzanine needs are more complex a project manager will visit you on site and discuss your particular requirements. The project manager will work with you to achieve the very best, most cost-effective solution.

More than just a Mezzanine Floor

For many applications the mezzanine is just the beginning, the foundation on which your new working environment is built. At K & A Furness Ltd we can build on this foundation and provide a number of associated products and services.

This gives you the advantage of a single project price designed within your budget. You will have a single point of contact throughout the project duration and your project will be managed in its entirety.

Common Uses of Mezzanine Floors

The most common use of a mezzanine floor is for storage.  This normally means utilising either a combination of short and longspan shelving below and above the floor.  Many businesses will use one level for one purpose e.g. storage and the 2nd level for an office.
 
Office mezzanines can be built in the warehouse and factory environment and by using composite or steel partitions with glazing can create the right work environment. All welfare facilities such as canteens and toilets can be part of the self contained offices.
Mezzanines are often used in retail to increase the selling space and or the storage back of store. 
 
When mezzanine floors are used in retail there are stringent regulations as in the floor has to be fire rated, the stairs are for public access and the hand rail is suitable for public use.
Other mezzanine uses include increasing space for production, packing, sorting etc.
 
“It is often a lack of space that holds back businesses from growing.” The lower cost option to relocation could be a mezzanine floor.
