Mezzanines

Custom Mezzanines | Out of Space? Build Up! 

A growing business is always a great problem to have, but it can also pose storage and space issues. If a facility is running out of floor space and additional square footage isn’t in the budget, a mezzanine is an ideal solution. 

Structural steel mezzanines from Martin Vertical Storage are the ideal way to increase a facility’s usable floor space without investing time and capital in new construction.

What are Structural Steel Mezzanines?

A mezzanine is a work or storage platform area positioned between two floors. Also considered an intermediate floor, these structures have a wide variety of names, including industrial mezzanine, mezzanine level or floor, and warehouse or work platform.

No matter their name, mezzanines give facilities additional floorspace even though they're not normally included in the overall floor count in a building.

Mezzanines are extremely beneficial in industrial settings, as they provide additional usable space without a need to expand the facility outwards. Custom mezzanines take advantage of the existing vertical space that comes with the high ceilings normally found in warehouses, distribution centers, and manufacturing facilities. Small-to-mid-sized facilities such as auto parts providers will also benefit from the installation of a mezzanine platform. 

Our structural steel mezzanines allow for high demands of dense storage. Through a combination of custom design, additional shelving, steel partitions, and paneling, Martin Vertical Storage will create a custom storage mezzanine to suit our customer’s unique specifications.

Below is a list of advantages to installing a custom mezzanine from Martin Vertical Storage. 

Why Add a Mezzanine?

Mezzanines are necessary to create more space in a facility. One of the biggest reasons our customers choose a customized mezzanine for their business is that mezzanines enable owners to take advantage of the potential for more usable space. Overall, mezzanines improve organizational capacity. When our customers expand with a custom mezzanine they receive: 

• New work areas: Mezzanines enable the use of the existing vertical space. 

• Added storage capacity: With a mezzanine, goods and materials are kept off the main floor while ensuring that they’re still accessible.

• Additional office space: A mezzanine is a great place to locate a foreman’s office or to accommodate a company’s expanding administrative personnel.

Preserve Brightness and Airflow: One advantage that mezzanines have over closed rooms is that they don’t just add space, they also keep the open feel of that space. This is better for overall air circulation and for keeping facilities brighter, especially industrial spaces that opt for open bar floor grating for their mezzanines.

Aesthetic Appeal: Mezzanines aren’t just for industrial areas! Businesses that are open to the public will also benefit from having additional usable space. A customized mezzanine might be the perfect choice for a retail store or other public-facing establishments to complement its unique character and layout.

Lower Installation Cost: Martin Vertical Storage will design and install each mezzanine for a fraction of what it would cost to build out a facility by adding an extra room or wing.

Shorter Timeline: We provide our mezzanine materials promptly. Materials will arrive at the facilities typically within three months.

Fewer Disruptions: Thanks to the nature of the components and our technical knowledge, Martin Vertical Storage can install most mezzanines in less than a week.

Save on Energy Expenses: Since every mezzanine will be situated within an existing facility, there’s no need to pay for additional utilities associated with building another room or wing.

Easy Relocation: Each Cogan mezzanine is modular and free-standing. If a Cogan mezzanine needs to be relocated, it can be disassembled and moved to its new location.

Flexibility and a Customized Design: To keep costs low, Martin Vertical Storage starts with a standard design. We will also gladly customize a mezzanine lift to meet our customer’s specialized needs.

Configuration Options: We can tailor each mezzanine’s size, height, load capacity, and access points. Customers can also choose from a variety of deck surfaces and multiple stair configurations.

Complement Your Mezzanine with a VRC Lift

Vertical Reciprocating Conveyor (VRC) lifts are a perfect addition to any new mezzanine! It’s safer to use a VRC lift to move materials from one floor to another than it is to use a forklift or relocate them manually. VRC lifts are also less expensive than elevators.

Martin Vertical Storage is a knowledgeable designer, installer, and supplier of both mezzanines and VRC lifts. We can create the perfect customized space-saving solution for your business.
