28 June 2019SAFELY ACCESSING YOUR MEZZANINE
Mezzanine storage systems in domestic and commercial environments are incredibly effective when it comes to increasing work or storage space. After all, it makes sense to utilise every existing inch of vertical space in the workplace or the home. In some instances, a mezzanine can be the only solution apart from relocating to a bigger premises when you require additional space – but what about when it comes to comfortably accessing your mezzanine?
There are a lot of things to consider - from health and safety to convenience –when it comes to installing an access solution, and these may vary depending on the use of your mezzanine (domestic vs commercial). In this article, we’ll look at safely and flexibly accessing your additional space with shelf ladders.
SHELF LADDERS
Shelf ladders are typically made of aluminium and provide a safe, multi-functional means of accessing your mezzanine. Designed for comfort, a shelf ladder combines a T-rail system ladder with steps, and can be set up in a variety of ways, or created bespoke for the purposes of accessing your mezzanine.
Designed with the employee in mind, a shelf ladder provides an ergonomic platform for stock storage and picking in compact areas with heavy traffic.
Many retail and industrial environments make use of shelf ladders to enable workers to safely access products stored on high shelves.
Shelf ladder costs can vary dependent on the features you decide upon. They’re available with no handrails, single handrails or double-sided handrails, and it’s possible to add shafting hooks and crossbars to the top for additional safety. Shelf ladders are also versatile and can be compactly stored, making them particularly useful for commercial environments where space is at a premium. If you don’t intend on accessing your domestic or commercial mezzanine daily, a shelf ladder offers a temporary, cost-effective solution.
