Rack Based mezzanines are the most economical way to create an additional floor level. Using standard pallet rack components, this solution can double floor space by utilising overhead warehouse space, whether in a new facility or expanding the existing area.
• Standard Rack Based mezzanine can span up to three metres.
• It can be custom designed where larger clearances are required.
Depending on your inventory load, a Bowen design can incorporate a wide range of flooring materials including plywood, particleboard, steel planking, and steel grating.
In addition, specialist material handling equipment can be incorporated into a mezzanine floor design, such as conveyors, goods chutes, goods lifts, and pallet load gates.
Each Rack Based mezzanine area design includes:
• Staircases
• Handrails
• Pallet loading gates
• Safety signage
Shelving levels can be incorporated into the structure to provide Long Span shelf levels. Freestanding modular units can be positioned between frames for smaller item storage.
Fire protection systems can be incorporated into the design. Lighting and sprinklers may be also be required and positioned under the mezzanine floor. These requirements will depend on the storage application, type of storage commodity, existing fire suppression system and local building codes.
Our Rack Based mezzanine floor storage system options are usually freestanding and can be dismantled and relocated if required. They utilise the cubic area of warehouses and maximise your storage space.
Bowen Storage can prepare permit drawings, engineering calculations, submit the applications, and assist with obtaining building permits.
