Mezzanine Flooring
Make your warehouse more of a money spinner. Install mezzanine flooring in Northampton.How does installing a mezzanine floor in your Northampton warehouse help your business?
For any business that buys and sells, space is one of the biggest limiting factors. The bigger your warehouse, the more you can stock, but when you reach the limits of what your existing premises can store, things get harder.
It’s not just about having the room to store more. It’s the problems the stem from being at near capacity, such as:
- Loading and picking efficiency
- Speed around the warehouse
- Picking errors
- Safety
A mezzanine floor can create space that improves all the above.
Why choose a Northampton mezzanine floor?
Because when space is tight, the alternatives are extending the building (which is costly, time consuming and will probably require planning permission) or moving, which can be even more of a logistical nightmare.
A mezzanine helps you increase the space available in your warehouse without the hassle and for a fraction of the price of alternatives.
What can I use my Northampton mezzanine for?
For whatever your business needs. Use it as an extension of your existing storage space. Free up space at ground floor level by moving certain functions to the mezzanine (e.g. packing, reception, admin or training suites).
Or use it to house a new IT hub, showroom or sales team.
How big can a mezzanine floor be?
The only limit to the size of your Northampton mezzanine floor is the size of the building in which it sits. Most mezzanines tend to be between a third and a half the size of the existing warehouse area, but that doesn’t mean yours has to be.
You won’t need planning permission, but you will need to meet Building Regs and, depending on the size of your mezzanine flooring, it may need to be fire rated. Talk to us about your plans.
Do I need to own my own Northampton warehouse to install a mezzanine floor?
Not necessarily. We’ve installed lots of Northampton mezzanines in leased premises. You will need to check your lease agreement and, if the agreement requires it, you may need to get the permission of (or at least inform) your landlord.
In our experience, the fact that a mezzanine increases the value of a building (or helps secure you as a tenant for longer) means landlords are often happy to agree.
