Planning a Warehouse Mezzanine

Key considerations for adding productive floor area with a warehouse mezzanine.

Define the use

Start with the intended use: storage, work area, offices, picking or equipment support. The use influences loading, access, guarding and layout requirements.

Document the facility

Clear height, columns, slab conditions, sprinklers, lighting, utilities, egress and material-flow paths all matter.

Plan access and movement

Stairs, gates, lifts, conveyors and transfer methods should be considered early so the added square footage is genuinely usable.
