Mezzanine Racking System:

A warehouse mezzanine racking system is a storage solution system that allows for the construction of an elevated platform erected on solid metallic structures between the floor and the ceiling within the vicinity of a warehouse for the sole purpose of capitalizing upon the unused space already at your disposal by vertically doubling or tripling the platforms. Even after its construction, the space beneath the mezzanine can also be accessed and used for further storage units. The following are the three main types of mezzanine racking systems;

1. Structural Mezzanine System:

Structural Mezzanine System utilizes the unused space overhead by raising an elevated platform supported by a row of steel columns and beams that leads to an increase in floor space. This provides owners with additional storage density without the need to renovate which could lead to additional costs.

2. Catwalk Mezzanine System:

Catwalk Mezzanine System optimizes the efficiency of the workforce by enabling them quick access routes throughout the warehouse. It can also connect other structural mezzanines through a straight, customized ramp to create a more coherent path thus giving your employees more aware of the quality of the products and easy access points to storage units.

3. Shelving Supported System:

Shelving Supported System utilizes the additional space by integrating a storage racking system. The shelves are constructed from highly durable steel which allows for storage units of higher density, even pallet racks, to be placed easily without impacting the structural integrity of the mezzanine.

Benefits of a Mezzanine Racking System:

•  Increased Space: The primary reason behind the construction of mezzanines is to increase the storage capacity of a warehouse. On many occasions, business owners tend to forget the vertical space they already have in their possessions and instead, spread out their inventory which results in the workspace being extremely cluttered and effects employees from carrying out their regular tasks. By vertically stacking goods on raised platforms, businesses can save up on costs that they were initially going to spend by expanding or renting out other storage facilities. Increased floor space will also allow for more versatile and flexible warehouse management with wider accessibility.
• Broaden your horizon: This is extremely beneficial for companies looking to broaden their business operations by expanding upon their inventory without causing any damage to their goods and providing a safer work environment for their employees by simplifying travel from rack to rack via elevated storage units through the access of stairs or elevators depending upon the type of mezzanine model the manufacturer wishes to install. This allows for easier and more versatile access points without impeding any ongoing business operations.
• Take it apart and put it back: With many warehouses needing to expand, renovations and building design changes can cause numerous problems including hindering day-to-day running operations while also adding more to your growing list of expenses. Mezzanines are cost-effective and can easily be constructed and dismantled at any point in time and moved to another location if the need arises. For the most part, it is a labour-based racking system that allows for better handling and care. However, pallet trucks and forklifts can also be used for transporting goods.
