Benefits of Mezzanines
Mezzanines are elevated platforms that are installed within an existing warehouse or manufacturing facility to create additional floor space. Mezzanines are often used to maximize storage capacity, increase production capacity, or create additional office or workspaces. These platforms are typically made from structural steel and are designed to support heavy loads.
One of the primary benefits of industrial mezzanines is their ability to increase usable floor space without the need for a costly and time-consuming expansion of the facility. Mezzanines can be installed quickly and easily, and they can be customized to meet the specific needs of the facility. They are also a cost-effective solution for companies that need to add storage or production space but do not want to invest in a new facility or relocate to a larger space.
Another benefit of industrial mezzanines is their versatility. Mezzanines can be used for a variety of purposes, including storage, production, office space, and retail space. They can be designed to accommodate heavy equipment, conveyor systems, and other machinery. Mezzanines can also be customized with safety features such as guardrails, safety gates, and access points to ensure the safety of workers and visitors.
Mezzanines can also improve the efficiency of a facility by reducing the amount of time and energy required to move goods and equipment throughout the facility. Mezzanines can be designed to optimize the flow of materials, which can reduce bottlenecks and increase productivity. Mezzanines can also be integrated with other material handling equipment such as conveyors, lifts, and automated storage systems to create a seamless flow of materials throughout the facility.
In summary, industrial mezzanines offer a cost-effective and versatile solution for companies that need to increase their storage or production capacity. Mezzanines can be customized to meet the specific needs of the facility and can be designed to accommodate heavy equipment and machinery. They also offer safety features to protect workers and visitors, and can optimize the flow of materials to increase efficiency and productivity.

There are numerous reasons you should consider a used mezzanine for your business. For example, mezzanines are a cost efficient way of utilizing the unused vertical space within your storage facility. A used mezzanine allows for increased storage capacity without increasing the square footage of your property. Additional square footage would mean additional property tax, but a used mezzanine would not be considered additional square footage for tax purposes.
Used mezzanines can be altered for your specific warehouse facility. We lay out your mezzanine with CAD drawings, ensuring that it is built correctly. Our professional sales team has sold many mezzanine systems in the past 30 years, and they will work with you to pick the most effective option for maximizing your storage space.
Mezzanines can also be expanded without starting from scratch, or building from the bottom up. With the proper thought, your mezzanine can grow with your business. ASI can install a used mezzanine or expand an existing one in as little as one day. This minimizes the amount of time the installation is disrupting daily activities within that facility.
As you can see above, there are many different styles of used mezzanines to choose from. Along with those options, there are also different types of flooring, stairs/ladders, railings, safety gates, and catwalks to choose from. Which of these you will utilize depends on your mezzanine, where it is located within your facility, and for what it is being used.
ASI currently utilizes several used mezzanines in our own storage facility in East Providence, RI. Our new office area is made of a used mezzanine with storage above, and we have another steel mezzanine for storage right next to one of our loading docks. As far as buying used material handling equipment goes, stick with ASI. We have been in the business of buying and selling quality used equipment for over 30 years, and our used mezzanines are inspected prior to shipment to ensure your satisfaction.
