Five Assorted Alternatives For Mezzanine Floors And The Reasons Mezzanine Flooring Is Superior

Posted at by ifydcat on category Uncategorized

Amezzanine floor is built over space that already exists. If you want more space and don’t want to do major renovating, a mezzanine floor is a good option. The unused space below a ceiling is utilised by having mezzanine floors, which comes in handy for storage for example and this is even more useful if there is not a lot of space below the mezzanine floor. A mezzanine floor provides increased safety as well because you don’t have to have a cluttered floor space anymore which could cause people to trip. Having mezzanine flooring increases the value of a property or building as there is additional space, which is particularly useful in factories for example where potential buyers will want lots of space for machinery.

If the building has a loft, an alternative to mezzanine floors is a loft conversion. This is a long and expensive process however and will likely require the people who use the building to find an alternate location for at least a few days due to health and safety reasons. There will be a lot of dust and noise which will make it virtually impossible to work or live in the building during the loft conversion.

Building an extension is another alternative but again this is a longer and more costly process than installing mezzanine flooring and may also require people to temporarily relocate during the building. It is also a lot harder to get planning permission for building an extension than for building a mezzanine floor. Installing cupboards or lockers is an option for obtaining more space. These items will take up floor space however, which leaves less space for people to move freely. Also bear in mind that you’ll need to leave room for the cupboard/locker doors to open, so further space is taken up. Things such as desks could not be put in front of the cupboards as they would need to be shifted out the way each time you needed to open the cupboards. Smaller items could potentially be kept in front of the cupboard space but they too would have to get moved when you wanted access to the cupboard, which would be a tiresome thing to do often.

Extra space can be provided through shelving but if they are high shelves it will be hard to reach the objects on the top shelves. You might need to make use of ladders in order to reach the top shelves, which could be potentially dangerous if people fall off the ladders. Shelving also takes up valuable floor space. If you need more storage space or more office space, an option is to rent this space. This alternative can cost a lot of money, either through monthly rent payments or a hefty annual payment which could put stress on a business’s budget having to pay it all at once. This option is also inconvenient in terms of having to travel to the rented location to access whatever you have stored there and inefficient if you’re stretching your business over two locations potentially quite far apart.

In conclusion it is apparent that mezzanine flooring is the superior alternative for obtaining space.
