A mezzanine floor is used to take advantage of the usable high space within the confines of an existing building, such as in an industrial warehouse. Land in Australian capital cities has become quite expensive, impacting both commercial and domestic buildings alike. Rather than moving to larger premises, it is becoming more prevalent for businesses to invest in mezzanine flooring for their warehouse. Space Rescue is a supplier and builder of mezzanine floors in Sydney, Newcastle, Maitland, the Central Coast and surrounding industrial areas.

1. Benefits of a Mezzanine Floor

a) Speedy solution for space issues

Our structural mezzanine floors are considered a rather fast solution to space problems. This is in comparison to the time and challenges involved relocating to larger premises. Our mezzanines, made from steel sections, can be quickly pre-fabricated off site and prepared ready for installation. We do most of the careful planning and hard work upfront, so the time on site erecting the floor is greatly reduced. This enables our customers to get up and running with their additional space options in a relatively short period of time.

b) Open areas under your floor

One of the great benefits of a custom mezzanine floor is the flexibility provided through careful design. If you require specifically sized clear areas under your floor, we can strategically allow for fewer posts and larger spans. This option allows our Sydney customers to make the most of the available space on the ground underneath the mezzanine deck.

c) Improve the functionality of your site

Extra floor space will bring you a whole host of new possibilities. When you consider adding partitioning above or below your floor, you can easily create a break room, a despatch office, or a meeting room. On the other hand, you may simply need more floor area for pallet storage or perhaps you would like to add longspan shelving for your growing inventory requirement. We can either deliver a mezzanine floor kit to you or organise a full installation.

d) You can remove when you move

A handy feature of our mezzanine floors is that they are free-standing platforms. This means that they are able to stand independently and free of the building they are placed within. For stability, we only need to secure these temporary structures using floor anchors in to the concrete slab. This is similar to all pallet racking within warehouses. As our mezzanines are modular by design, that is consisting of bolt together parts, it is quite easy to dismantle and remove them when you leave the site.

4. FAQ

Are mezzanines expensive?

In comparison to the costs and disruption of relocating to larger premises, the swift erection of a mezzanine floor, providing more storage and floor area, is quite a budget-friendly alternative. Our prices for the supply of a light-duty mezzanine floor start at around AU$300 + GST per square metre and increase depending upon the load rating, complexity, and options selected.

What is the standard mezzanine in Australia?

A standard mezzanine in Australia is rectangular in shape, is fitted with ball and tube guardrails to exposed floor edges, has a floor height of around three metres, is made of structural steel beams and posts plus cold-rolled steel purlins, uses tongue and groove floor boards, and has at least one staircase and one pallet gate.
