Finding room for everything isn't always straightforward, particularly when a business has been operating from the same building for several years.
As stock levels increase and more equipment is brought in, it doesn't take long for a building to start feeling short on room. But before looking for somewhere bigger, it's worth considering how much of your existing space is actually being used.
Millennium Storage & Interiors installs mezzanine floors throughout Leeds, helping businesses create more room for storage, offices or everyday operations by making use of the height already available in their buildings.
Is There Room for Another Floor?
You might be surprised by how much unused space there is above your existing working area.
Many warehouses and industrial units have enough height to accommodate a mezzanine floor. The difficulty is knowing where to put it, how large it should be and whether the building is suitable in the first place.
That's where we come in.
We'll visit your premises, take measurements and have a proper look around. It's also a chance to discuss what you're hoping to achieve and whether a mezzanine floor would be suitable for your building.
What Happens Before Installation?
There's quite a bit to consider before a mezzanine floor can be installed.
The proposed use of the floor is particularly important. An area intended for storing heavy goods will have different requirements from one being used as an office or additional workspace.
Before putting a design together, we'll need to look at a few things:
- Available ceiling height and floor space
- How much weight the new floor will need to support
- Existing columns and the building's layout
- Where the stairs and access points could go
- What the space underneath will be used for
Once we've looked at these, we'll have a better idea of what will work in your building and how to approach the installation.
Mezzanine Floor Installation Without Unnecessary Disruption
Having work carried out in a busy warehouse isn't always convenient. Deliveries still need to arrive, staff need access to different areas and there's usually plenty happening throughout the day.
Every building is different, so we'll look at how best to carry out the installation without getting in the way of your business. Where practical, we can work in stages to keep other areas of your premises accessible.
We'll discuss the practicalities beforehand so you know what to expect.
A Floor That Works for Your Business
Installing a mezzanine floor isn't simply a matter of putting up a steel structure.
Where the stairs are positioned, how goods will be moved between levels and what happens underneath the new floor all need careful consideration.
For example, a business might want additional storage upstairs while keeping the ground floor clear for forklifts and deliveries. Another might need office space overlooking a production area.
The design needs to take account of those everyday requirements.
