Rack Supported Floors

What is a Rack Supported Floor?

Rack Supported Mezzanine Floors are utilised in order to create a storage area above racking which replaces the floor space lost to racking. Pigeon Hole Racking is a popular choice of racking used to support the floor along with standard Pallet Racking.

Optimizing Space with Rack Supported Mezzanine Floors

Every square foot counts in storage and warehouse environments. But what if your existing racking system could do double duty? Enter rack supported mezzanine floors, a smart solution for maximizing space and efficiency.

What are rack supported mezzanine floors?

Imagine a mezzanine floor integrated seamlessly with your existing pallet racking or shelving units. This is the essence of a rack supported mezzanine. The racking itself becomes the structural support for the platform, eliminating the need for separate columns and beams.

Benefits of rack supported mezzanines:

Maximized space: Create additional storage or work areas above your existing racking system, effectively adding a whole new floor without sacrificing ground-level space.
Cost-effective: By leveraging existing racking, rack supported mezzanines are often more affordable than traditional freestanding mezzanine floors.
Efficient design: The integrated design eliminates the need for additional support structures, simplifying the construction process.
Versatility: Rack supported mezzanines can be customized in size and configuration to suit your specific needs and racking layout.
