Considered Within Your Building

The existing structure, available height and proposed use are reviewed before the mezzanine scope is agreed.

Designed for the Intended Use

Loading and support requirements are established through the appropriate project design.

A Clear Scope of Work

Your quotation identifies the mezzanine components, installation work and any specialist responsibilities.

Make More of Your Existing Building

Falcon Steel Buildings can help you plan a steel mezzanine floor for additional storage or working space within a suitable building. We’ll discuss how you intend to use the new floor, the loads it needs to support, available height and how people or goods will access it.

An agreed mezzanine package may include the steel structure, floor decking, stairs, handrails and other specified elements. The existing building, structural design, fire and access requirements must be reviewed for the individual project. Your quotation will make clear what Falcon will supply or install and which work belongs to other specialists.

Add Usable Floor Area

A mezzanine can create space above part of your existing floor for an agreed storage or working use, subject to the building and structural requirements.

Plan a Steel Mezzanine Around How You Work

A useful mezzanine starts with the activities it needs to support. Tell us whether the new level is intended for storage, workspace or another purpose, what will be placed on it and how people or goods will move between floors.

We’ll discuss the available height, column positions and the space that must remain clear below. The structural design, floor loading, access and any fire or approval requirements are established for the individual building and proposed use. Your quotation will identify the components and work included. For background on requirements in England, see the government’s Building Regulations Approved Documents.

Steel Mezzanine Floor FAQs

Can a mezzanine floor be added to an existing steel building?

Often, yes, but it depends on the building, available space and proposed use. We’ll review the information you provide before recommending a layout and scope.

How is the required floor loading decided?

Floor loading is based on what the mezzanine will be used for and what it needs to support. Tell us about stored goods, equipment and activities so the requirement can be established for your project.

Can stairs and loading access be included?

Stairs and other access requirements can be discussed as part of the design. Your individual quotation will confirm what is included.

Will my mezzanine need approvals?

Requirements depend on the building, location and intended use. Discuss the proposal with the relevant professionals and authorities; we’ll clarify the building information and work included in our scope.

Can Falcon install the mezzanine floor?

We can discuss installation alongside supply. Site access, preparation and the work Falcon will carry out will be confirmed in your quotation.

Can I plan a mezzanine into a new steel building?

Yes. Discussing it early helps you consider clear heights, column positions and access as part of the overall building layout. See our steel storage buildings and steel workshops for related building options.
