Will a mezzanine fit in an older, low-clear warehouse?

In most buildings with 18 feet or more of clear height, yes. We measure to the lowest obstruction and plan a deck that leaves workable headroom above and below. If the space is too tight, we will tell you plainly. Honest advice saves you time and money.

How big should a storage deck be?

Size it from the stock you want off the floor, plus aisles and a loading zone. Overflow storage often needs less deck than people expect. We can sketch a few sizes so you can weigh cost against capacity. A deck can also expand later if overflow grows.

Can you work around our Opa-locka racking?

Yes. We map existing racking and aisles first and place columns to avoid them. Sometimes the deck spans over a row of shelving, so the racking stays in place and the new level sits above it. Spanning saves the cost of moving racking.

Overflow Storage on an Opa-locka Mezzanine

Hurricane season gives owners another reason to get goods off the floor. Stock on a deck sits above water that can pool inside older buildings during heavy storms.

Even one modest level can double the storage over the footprint it covers. Packaging suppliers and distributors alike tend to fill a new deck faster than planned, so leaving room to extend is worth discussing.

Older warehouses here often offer 18 to 24 feet clear. That will not carry tall racking, but it carries a deck nicely.

Planning a Warehouse Mezzanine Around Old Columns

Older buildings come with uneven column grids and low roof steel. We measure everything before drawing, then place the deck columns to work with what is already there.

A free-standing mezzanine is usually best since it stands on its own and is anchored to the floor.

Steel arrives by truck, so access matters. We coordinate deliveries with your yard and plan zones so the floor stays usable.

Multi-shift operations can keep running in the areas outside each fenced zone. Want to compare deck types first? Our mezzanine overview covers the main options.
