Cost-Efficient Steel Mezzanine Rack Systems
Warehouse mezzanine flooring racks are very popular in industrial
storage for small commodities, manual picking items, bulky
products, and irregular shape inventories. Providing multi-level
storage layers, the mezzanine flooring rack makes full use of
valuable warehouse space by combining racks, raised platforms,
stairs, and load gate together into a steel independent
construction.

For clients who have interests in warehouse mezzanine racking
systems, some things need to be considered before contacting your
manufacturer for a specific design.
► The exact purpose of the mezzanine
If you want to add an office to your warehouse while not reducing
your storage space, you may need a platform. If you want to
separate your bulky irregular items with palletized products or
shelving stored inventory, a full mat mezzanine should be
considered. Or you just run out of space in your existing
pallet-racking system, a mezzanine could be added onto it for
storage capacity increase with minimum cost.
► The loading capacity that you are demanding
During the design of the mezzanine, the weight it carries will
directly decide the materials for its manufacture. The roll-formed
mezzanine can be more economic if you only need a light-duty
loading capacity. Structural mezzanine is more study and rigid with
obviously higher cost.
► The types and features of the inventory you may store
In choosing proper mezzanines that are functional, different
products with different sizes, weights and shapes require specific
storage solutions that should be taken into account.
► The interacting vehicles you may use in the mezzanine
The moving machines in your warehouse should be compatible with the
mezzanine system you will use. If you already have the material
handling equipment, talk to your suppliers for some suggestions
that may help you choose the right mezzanine racking system.
► The available areas you may have for your mezzanine
The available space inside warehouses will determine the mezzanine
scales and dimensions.
► You budget for your mezzanine
The prices of different mezzanines with different configurations
and materials can vary a lot. How to achieve maximum profits with
minimum cost is an ultimate goal that we pursue.
► Your expectations and your future business plans
It’s very important to take your business plans into consideration
when purchasing such a large facility. Luckily, most of the
mezzanine systems can be relocated and modified easily which means
they can grow with your business.
Safety Concerns About Mezzanine
Mezzanines can be dangerous if not designed or used properly. A lot
of protective accessories must be integrated into this system for
safety concerns.
For elevated platforms, guardrails are essential components to
protect products or workers from falling down. Decks for the floors
should be consistent and flawless in case of accidental collapse.
Fire-proofing materials that permit water permeating and air
circulation would be better if possible. Components like vertical
elevators, pallet gates, and catwalks can also be added for safe
and efficient material handling.
Other accessories such as kick plates, netting, stair handrails,
and barriers are also available to guarantee the safe and fluent
operation of the whole system. Most of all, consulting professional
engineers is always a wise choice during the whole course of
designing, installation, application, and maintenance.
