Mezzanine Flooring

Huddersfield mezzanines: What is a mezzanine floor?

Mezzanine floors are freestanding floors that sit within your existing warehouse. They’re constructed in steel, so they’re robust enough to take heavy loads. A mezzanine increases usable space because you can use the floorspace on the mezzanine itself, and the floorspace below it. If you have enough height, you can build multiple mezzanine floors, giving you even more space to work with.

How much space to I need for a mezzanine in Huddersfield?

You’ll need a total warehouse height of 5.5m and 2m minimum headroom clearance for any stairway to be able to install a single storey mezzanine. Where you have lots of ‘airspace’ you could install a multi-level mezzanine.

How big can my Huddersfield mezzanine floor be?

The total floor size of your mezzanine will be determined not just by the size of your warehouse, but also by safety considerations. Generally speaking, the bigger your mezzanine, the more likely it will need to meet fire regulations and the more likely it will need more than one access point. Smaller mezzanine floors don’t need to meet such standards. A floor of 10m x 10m in size or less which occupies less than 50% of the area of the building, for example, won’t need a fire rating if it isn’t permanently occupied (that is, if you use it for storage rather than office space).
