\"irregular<\/a><\/p>\n

Storage platforms are a great way to add extra storage space to your facility by enabling you to take advantage of the unused space above to maximize your available space without needing to expand your facility.\u00a0 The mezzanine probably itself isn\u2019t the only thing you\u2019ll need to think about when putting in a storage platform – you might want to put in some additional shelving or maybe some security cages while you\u2019re at it.\u00a0 We recently received some photos back from a project where we were able to assist the customer with all of this.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Storage Platform<\/h2>\n
\"custom<\/a>

The custom bi-parting slide gate allowed us to center the gate for forklift access.<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/div>\n

The <\/span>storage platform<\/span><\/a> itself was an irregular shaped 30\u2019x31\u20196\u2033 overall, including a 19\u2019x11\u2032 bump in to allow for easy access of the fork trucks at the bottom of the platform.\u00a0 The customer requested an 11\u20195\u2033 top of deck, which left us with 9\u201910\u201d clearance height beneath our beam and c-section framing. They were planning on using the platform for mixed storage, with mostly light storage on shelves, but also the occasional pallet.\u00a0 We designed the platform to accommodate a 125 psf live load and used a durable and cost effective B-deck skinned with Resindek LD deck surface. This gave them a smooth solid surface to roll their pallets across that could easily handle the point loads of their shelves.\u00a0 We also included a custom bi-parting slide gate so we could position just where the customer wanted.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shelves<\/h2>\n
\"shelving<\/a>

We added multiple bays of shelving above and below the platform to increase the customer\u2019s available storage space.<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/div>\n

While planning out their storage area, the customer determined that they were going to need some new shelves to go above and below the platform and provided us with a layout of what they were hoping to do.\u00a0 We were able to provide them with 36 bays of various sizes of selves. We stuck with individual shelving units to afford them the flexibility to rearrange their layout if their needs change in the future. The clip style shelves helped minimize installation time, and the open shelves (lacking side and back walls) we provided helped keep the cost down while allowing them to place some larger items between two adjacent bays.<\/span><\/p>\n

Security Cages<\/h2>\n
\"security<\/a>

The welded wire panels were easily cut in the field to allow the staircase to pass through.<\/span><\/i><\/p><\/div>\n

There were some materials the customer was going to store that needed to be secured.\u00a0 They wanted to create two secure zones: one 6\u2019x15\u2032 two wall cage on top of the storage platform , and a 11\u2019x11\u2032 three wall cage the ground level beneath the stairs. The Quick Fence welded <\/span>wire mesh partition<\/span><\/a> we provided worked great because it went together quickly and was easy for the installers to cut in the field to fit around the staircase.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"security<\/a>

We caged off a section on top of the deck as well for additional secure storage space.<\/p><\/div>\n

The customer was really happy with the quality of the storage platform, and with the ease in which it all went together.\u00a0 The next time you\u2019re thinking of putting in a storage platform in your facility, let us provide you with an option to provide the shelves and cages as well.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
