Allen Mezzanines - taking your business to another level
STOTFOLD, HERTFORDSHIRE — NATIONWIDE INSTALLATION

Mezzanine floors provide extra space, cost effectively.

A mezzanine floor is a free-standing, self-supporting steel structure that lets you make the most of your building's height — extending your factory, warehouse or commercial property without an additional footprint.

We're a family-run business that designs, manufactures and installs mezzanine floors for construction firms, developers, architects, retailers and property owners nationwide.

Mezzanine floors

A mezzanine, or intermediate floor, creates valuable additional space in your office, warehouse or factory environment — designed and engineered around your building and your load requirements.

EDGE PROTECTION

Edge protection

The Work at Height Regulations 2005 require suitable and sufficient measures to prevent falls. Protecting every open edge of a mezzanine floor is an essential health and safety measure, and the most common solution is handrails attached directly to the steel structure.

TESTIMONIALS

What our customers say.

We always aim to go the extra mile when we design, manufacture and install a mezzanine floor. We're proud of the difference our products and services have made to businesses around the country.

Recommended to help us add office space

"When we needed to add office space Allen Mezzanines were recommended to us for our new mezzanine floor.

They provided professional, fair and helpful advice and a competitive price, as would be expected from an experienced company. The greatest benefit was their personal attention and good workmanship."

John & Pascalis

Looking for a storage space solution

"We chose Allen Mezzanines because they are a local company and their product looked to be good quality. They understood exactly what we wanted in terms of storage and capacity and solved the problem with minimum disruption. The whole experience was without any worries. Efficient and helpful – thanks for the installation."

Ranscombe Cars

Partition alterations

"The team was responsive to my enquiry and I had good impressions following my first meeting with Keith Allen. You understood our needs and were able to offer good advice to reach the end result. Although there were some unforeseen problems they were solved without any fuss.

If you need someone to undertake a project in a friendly manner and someone who can help advise at a reasonable cost then this is an ideal company. Everyone is easy to talk to from the top down to the workforce."

RNIB

Recommended for remodelling and fit-out

"We had two large projects; one was a downsize and remodelling to accommodate existing staff numbers in half the space, the second was a fit-out for a newly acquired facility to our standards and design. Both projects were going to be running almost side by side.

We chose Allen Mezzanines because of the overall approach; visiting and understanding our needs. They listen, they offer alternatives if they think another way is better, and they do what they say, when they say they will.

Communication and project flow were good, remaining within the initial budgets for the work completed. We have achieved our goals and the final result is very good from our perspective.

Happy to have done business with them and have some other projects on the go that they will be completing for us."

TPS

Perfect communication

"From the start they were superb. The presentation of the quotation and the communication were perfect. Their knowledge and experience proved valuable when dealing with the local authority. The engineers on site have been excellent, nothing has been too much trouble and the attention to detail was particularly good. I would recommend them."

Cotswold Communication

A pleasure to work with

"Our offices were refurbished at a cost of over £500,000. They were a pleasure to work with and were professional throughout every stage of the project. The quality and technical ability of the team was exceptional. All the team were friendly and helpful in each situation. Problems that arose were dealt with efficiently and immediately. The project finished on time and within budget. We were very pleased with their work and would be happy to recommend them to another company."

L Lynch

Creative solutions

"We have been working with them for over 10 years, and together we have completed many projects and installations for numerous customers in a variety of different industry sectors.

We use them because their skills and knowledge allow us to precisely match our customers' wants and needs, not only at the quotation and planning stage, but also 'on the go'.

Other mezzanine floor suppliers cannot match the team's ability to come up with creative solutions to customer design changes made after the building materials have been delivered to site. For this reason, we will continue to work with them for many years to come."

FAQS

Mezzanine floor FAQs.

Answers to some of the questions we're asked most often. If you don't find what you're looking for, get in touch and we'll be happy to help.

Can I change the design layout of my mezzanine floor at any stage?

Changes can be made to the design right up until the manufacture date. Extra costs might arise, depending on how advanced your project is at the time.

Can my warehouse staff still work while you're installing the mezzanine?

Special safety measures and procedures may need to be put in place. We work closely with your staff to maintain a safe working environment, and provide a method statement and risk assessment in advance so we can discuss what's needed to address any risks identified.

Do I need to do any preparation before installation?
You will need to provide:
  1. Clear access to the area where the mezzanine floor is to be built
  2. Utilities and services, such as power
Can I install the mezzanine floor myself?

Yes, but we'd recommend using our trained, professional installation team — this reduces interruption and lets you keep running your day-to-day business. Building Regulations approval is still required whoever installs the floor, and we can handle the application for you.

Do you provide staircases, handrailing and other items we may need?

Yes. We provide everything needed to complete your installation, including staircases, pallet gates, handrailing, goods lifts, conveyor systems, column guards, fire protection, lighting, smoke detection and other specialist products and services.

What regulations are there for installing a mezzanine floor?

Building Regulations approval is required for every mezzanine, and the structure must meet British Standards. Planning permission might also be needed for floors above 200m². We submit an application to your local authority on your behalf, along with full structural calculations and design drawings, for approval.

How long will the process take to get my mezzanine floor installed?

Most projects are completed in three to five weeks from the site survey, depending on size and complexity and on how quickly the design is approved — see the typical week-by-week process in the Services section above.

Is there a minimum or maximum size of mezzanine floor?

No. We design a suitable mezzanine floor based on your personal requirements — this could be a single or multi-tiered structure, depending on any height restrictions.

How much does a mezzanine floor cost?

Our pricing is based on current best practice within the industry. Each mezzanine floor differs in size, height and specification, so costs vary. Costs depend on floor area, height, loading, intended use and site access — get in touch for an initial quote and we can finalise your price on application.

What does the maintenance survey fee cover?

It's a flat-rate fee (plus VAT) for a one-day call-out, including the site visit and the written report. The same fee applies to each scheduled visit, and the programme is based on two visits a year.

What if the maintenance survey finds problems?

Anything that needs attention is recorded in your report, and we quote for the remedial works separately. There's no obligation to go ahead.

What do I get with the load capacity assessment?

We work out the load capacity of your surveyed mezzanine floor and provide a drawing and structural calculations, for a flat fee of £2,397 + VAT.

Not sure if your building can take a mezzanine?

Send us your floor plan and ceiling height — we'll tell you what's possible before you commit to anything.
