About Mezzanines and Work Platforms
Mezzanines are often essential solutions for maximizing usable space within your facility. By adding intermediate levels, mezzanines effectively double or even triple your existing square footage without the need for costly building expansions. These solutions can be full-scale facility spanning levels or smaller single-application structures.
Work platforms provide safe and accessible elevated areas for maintenance, inspection, or operational tasks. These solutions are commonly added on to facility processes or machines in order to provide access to areas that would be hard to reach otherwise. Work platforms can be tailored to multiple workers or made to easily accommodate a single staff member.
Whether you’re looking to expand storage capacity, create additional office space, or optimize workflow with strategically placed platforms, mezzanine and work platform solutions can be customized to meet the unique demands of your facility.

Benefits
Maximized Vertical Space
Mezzanines and work platforms capitalize on unused overhead space, effectively doubling or tripling your usable square footage without the expense of building expansions.
Cost-Effective Expansion
Compared to traditional construction, installing mezzanines and work platforms is a significantly more affordable way to gain additional floor space for storage, production, or office areas.
Increased Operational Efficiency
Strategically placed work platforms can streamline workflows by providing elevated access for maintenance, inspections, and process control, reducing travel time and improving task completion.
Potential Tax Advantages
In some regions, mezzanines may be classified differently from permanent building expansions, potentially offering tax benefits. See our article on Section 197 deductions.
Customizable Solutions
Mezzanines and work platforms can be tailored to specific dimensional requirements, load capacities, and application needs, ensuring a perfect fit for your unique facility and operational demands.
Improved Safety and Accessibility
Well-designed work platforms provide safe and stable elevated access, equipped with features like handrails and non-slip surfaces, enhancing worker safety during maintenance or operational tasks.
Faster Installation
Compared to conventional construction, the installation of mezzanines and work platforms is typically much quicker and less disruptive to ongoing operations.
Relocatable and Adaptable
Depending on the design, some mezzanine systems can be disassembled and relocated, offering flexibility as your business needs evolve. Work platforms can also be modified or expanded.
