A mezzanine floor is one of the most cost-effective ways to increase storage capacity in your warehouse — without relocating or extending your building. By adding an intermediate level, you make full use of the available height. Businesses across Antwerp, Ghent and Brussels are increasingly choosing this solution.
What is a mezzanine floor?
A mezzanine floor is a freestanding steel intermediate level installed inside your existing warehouse. The structure rests on steel columns with a floor of steel plate or open-mesh grating. The space underneath remains available for storage or workstations, while the upper level provides additional floor area.
When is a mezzanine floor the right choice?
- Your warehouse has a clear height of at least 4.5 metres
- You need more storage or workspace but do not want to relocate
- You want a movable, reusable investment
- You need a solution that often does not require planning permission
Types of mezzanine floors
| Type | Application | Load capacity |
|---|---|---|
| Light mezzanine | Office, archive, small goods | 300–500 kg/m² |
| Industrial mezzanine | Heavy storage, pallets | 500–1000 kg/m² |
| Racking-supported mezzanine | Built on top of existing shelving | 300–600 kg/m² |
How much does a mezzanine floor cost in Belgium?

Do you need planning permission in Belgium?
In many cases a mezzanine floor is considered a temporary or movable structure and falls outside the standard permit requirement. This depends on the municipality and the permanence of the structure. Always check with your local authority. MagazijnService can guide you through this process.
