How Our Bespoke Mezzanine Floor Solutions Maximise Your Space
When it comes to creating more usable space, mezzanine floors are a smart and efficient solution. But while many businesses focus on square footage alone, that’s only part of the equation. What really matters is how that space works in the context of your day-to-day operations.
A mezzanine that isn’t designed around the way your team moves, stores, and works can actually introduce inefficiencies, safety issues, or bottlenecks. That’s why at Wickens, we design every mezzanine to function seamlessly as part of your operation, not just as an extra platform.
Designed Around Your Operation – Not Just Your Building
In industrial and commercial environments, no two sites are the same. Some operations are fast-paced and time-sensitive, while others involve large machinery, forklift access, or specific safety protocols. Trying to fit an off-the-shelf mezzanine into a complex workflow often leads to:
- Disrupted staff flow
- Unsafe operating zones
- Unnecessary workarounds
- Long-term operational compromises
That’s why we start every project by understanding exactly how your space is used. From racking systems and loading areas to access points and lighting, we design your mezzanine to enhance, not hinder, your processes.
Live-Site Installation With Minimal Disruption
You can’t pause your operation for weeks while a mezzanine is installed, and with Wickens, you don’t have to. We’re experienced in working within live industrial environments and go the extra mile to keep your business moving throughout the build.
That includes:
- Working outside of your peak operational hours
- Phased installation, so part of your site remains active
- Pre-scheduled deliveries to avoid congestion
- Stringent safety checks and handover processes
Most installations are completed in days, not weeks, and always with your operation’s continuity in mind.
Smarter Layouts for Safer, More Efficient Workflows
A mezzanine isn’t just a structure; it becomes part of your workplace. If it’s awkward to access, poorly lit, or not built for how your teams operate, it can quickly become a liability rather than an asset.
We focus on practical, usable features, including:
- Safe, intuitive access: staircases, lifts, pallet gates, and handrails placed where they’re needed, not where they fit
- Lighting and visibility: layouts that keep both upper and lower levels well-lit and safe
- Load capacity you can trust: tailored for machinery, stock weight, or operational usage – not guesswork
- Long-term adaptability: future inspection, expansion, or maintenance access is built into the plan from day one
Real Gains Beyond Square Footage
Clients who partner with Wickens don’t just gain extra space, they gain measurable improvements in how their operation runs. These often include:
- Faster packing and order fulfilment
- Better traffic flow and fewer bottlenecks
- Increased safety and fewer manual handling risks
- Greater flexibility to evolve and grow
Because our mezzanines are integrated into your operation rather than added on as an afterthought, the benefits go far beyond storage.
What to Expect When You Work With Wickens
We don’t just deliver a mezzanine floor, we deliver a fit-for-purpose operational improvement. Here’s what that looks like:
- A dedicated project manager from concept to completion
- In-house design and manufacturing at our Worcester facility
- Installers trained for working in live, safety-critical sites
- Full compliance with UK building and safety regulations
- Clear communication at every stage
From the first consultation to the final handover, we make sure your mezzanine fits your workflow, not the other way around.
Think Function First – Then Add the Floor
If your current setup is limiting productivity, creating safety concerns, or simply not working for your team, a poorly planned mezzanine won’t solve the problem. But a well-integrated one will.
