What is a Raised Storage Area?
A raised storage area—also known as a mezzanine floor or platform—is a structural steel solution designed to create an additional level of usable space within an existing facility. Installed above ground level, these areas take advantage of underutilised vertical airspace, effectively doubling or even tripling your storage or operational footprint without the need to extend or relocate.
Raised storage areas are commonly used in warehouses, distribution centres, workshops, and retail back-of-house operations to add more racking, work zones, shelving, or office space. Engineered for strength and safety, they can be custom-configured with stairs, walkways, safety barriers, pallet gates, and a wide range of floor finishes to suit your exact workflow and load requirements.
Benefits at a Glance
- Instantly increases usable floor space without major construction
- Custom-designed for your building’s footprint and operational needs
- Adaptable for racking, shelving, packing benches, or office fit-outs
- Modular in design—easy to expand, relocate or reconfigure
- Engineered to meet Australian Standards for safety and structural performance
Raised Storage Area Features
Engineered Structural Integrity
Every raised storage platform from ABSOE is designed and certified to carry live and static loads based on your specific application—whether for heavy palletised goods or foot traffic.
Customisable Access & Layouts
Choose from a range of access solutions including staircases, forklift load gates, and handrail systems. Platforms can be laid out to suit aisles, conveyors, or production lines.
Designed & Manufactured in Australia
Fabricated in Brisbane using quality Australian steel, our raised storage areas are built for long-term durability in demanding warehouse environments.
Flexible Integration with Existing Infrastructure
Our platforms are designed to work seamlessly with existing racking, lighting, HVAC, and fire systems—making them ideal for retrofitting or phased expansions.
Better Workflow and Space Efficiency
By separating storage from operations or segmenting teams across levels, businesses can streamline activity, reduce clutter, and improve productivity within the same footprint.
Raised storage areas are a smart, space-saving solution ideal for businesses looking to expand operational capacity without costly building extensions. These elevated platforms are commonly used in:
- Warehouses needing extra floor space for racking, shelving, or staging areas
- Retail back-of-house storage where stockrooms must stay organised and accessible
- eCommerce fulfilment centres managing high-volume picking and packing zones
- Manufacturing facilities separating production areas from storage or admin zones
- Third-party logistics (3PL) providers optimising space for varied client needs
We recommend raised storage areas for creating efficient, elevated zones for:
- Additional pallet or carton storage above existing ground-level racking
- Packing stations, workbenches, or assembly lines on a separate platform
- Offices or admin areas built into the warehouse without sacrificing floor space
- Bulk stock overflow or slow-moving goods stored above primary workflows
- Staging and dispatch zones for goods ready to ship
