What is a mezzanine floor?
An extra level within your existing business premises
A mezzanine floor, also known as an intermediate floor, is a freestanding steel floor structure installed within an existing building. The structure rests on its own steel columns and therefore requires no changes to existing walls or the roof.
The floor is tailored to the required dimensions, load capacity and intended use. Thanks to its modular design, the structure can be adapted or expanded later as your operations change.

Benefits
Benefits of a mezzanine floor
- More usable floor space within the same building
- Suitable for storage, office, production or workshop use
- Modular, and can be adapted or expanded later
- Efficient use of the available building height
The main benefit of a mezzanine floor is that it converts vertical space into usable floor space. This can significantly increase the available space without an extension or relocation.
A mezzanine floor is highly versatile. Depending on the situation, the extra level can be used for storage, office space, production or a workshop. The modular design also makes the investment flexible for future growth.

Frequently asked questions
Everything about this solution
What is a mezzanine floor and when is it the best choice?
A mezzanine floor is a freestanding steel intermediate floor within an existing building. The system is particularly useful when you need extra usable space but do not want to relocate or extend the building.
How much weight can a mezzanine floor carry?
The load capacity depends on the design and intended use. Loads of 300 to 500 kilograms per square metre are typical, with higher loads possible using an adapted construction. The required load capacity is determined during the design phase.
Does a mezzanine floor need a building permit?
This depends on the design and local circumstances. We always recommend checking this against local regulations and the zoning plan.
What is the difference between a mezzanine floor and a permanent upper floor?
A mezzanine floor is a freestanding structure on its own columns and can be adapted, expanded or relocated later. A permanent upper floor is part of the building structure itself and generally requires a more extensive construction process.
Can a mezzanine floor be expanded or relocated later?
Yes. Thanks to its modular, freestanding construction, a mezzanine floor can in many cases be adapted, expanded or relocated later.
What does a mezzanine floor cost?
The price depends on factors such as dimensions, load capacity, design complexity, staircases and access points, and any additional requirements. That is why a tailored quote is drawn up.
