STAIRWAYS AND LANDINGS

Design function is typically overlooked for all mezzanines. The application must be carefuly considered. For instance, if public access is your main use, then a ship's ladder or spiral staircase isn't the correct option for you. There is a big difference between a structural staircase and a roll formed, quick ship, knocked down staircase. The latter of the two is a shaky climb to the mezzanine deck, while the structural gives a safe secure feeling. Intermediate landings are used to meet code requirements. They are required when deck heights exceed 12 feet. Landings are also used to change the direction of the staircase. Vertical Reciprocating Conveyers -VCR- are for freight only. They help prevent injuries and damage to your product. If you plan on moving product on or off your mezzanine several times per day, then a VCR should be considered.

Straight Run Staircase with Landing - Closed treads and risers, or open treads. Self supported Design.

U-Shaped or Switchback Staircase - This staircase was used because of limited floor space.

Ship's Ladders - Ship's ladders and crossovers are used for low usage and when floor space isn't available.

Safety Ladders - Safety ladders are used for emergency access, for low usage or with limited floor space.

Gates - Gates are used for pedestrian pass thru and fork truck access. The most common designs are swing gates, lift out gates and sliding gates.

Specialty Gates - Specialty gates are utilized when safety is of high concern. An overhead safety gate prevents personnel from getting near an opening on your mezzanine.
