Bespoke steel mezzanine floor installation by RA Steelworks Services LTD
Why Choose RA Steelworks

Expert Mezzanine Floor Design & Fabrication

Maximise your industrial or commercial space with RA Steelworks. We provide fully certified, BS EN 1090-1 compliant mezzanine floors across Southampton, Berkshire, Surrey, and West Sussex. Our coded welders and expert fabricators ensure every structural platform is engineered for safety, durability, and seamless installation.

Certified steelwork that keeps building control happy

When you are putting tonnes of stock or an entire office team several metres in the air, you cannot afford to cut corners. We do things properly here. As a UKAS-accredited firm, we work to BS EN 1090-1 standards and are approved for Execution Class 2 (EXC2). What does that actually mean for you? It means every beam we cut and every joint our coded welders secure is fully compliant with UK Building Regulations Part A. We provide CE-marked steel and all the necessary structural calculations your building control officer will want to see. It is about more than just a floor; it is about the peace of mind that comes from knowing your structure is legally compliant and, above all, safe for your staff.

Floors designed for your specific load requirements

Not all mezzanine floors are created equal. Are you planning to store heavy machinery or just create a quiet space for the accounts team? We talk in terms of kN/m² (Kilonewtons per square metre) to ensure the floor is fit for purpose. For a standard office, we usually look at 3.5kN/m², but for heavy-duty industrial storage, we can scale right up to 10kN/m² or more. We calculate the Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL) to make sure the weight is spread correctly and assess the point loads on your existing warehouse slab to prevent cracking. From moisture-resistant P6 chipboard decking to heavy-duty steel chequer plate or open mesh grating, we tailor the finish to how you actually work.

Minimal disruption to your daily operations

We know you have a business to run, and the last thing you need is a building site shutting you down for weeks. Most of the heavy lifting happens at our workshop before we even arrive in Fordingbridge. Because we handle the fabrication ourselves, we can ensure every column and joist is ready for a precision fit. When it comes to the on-site installation, our team works efficiently to get the main frame up and the decking down as quickly as possible. We are used to working in live environments, so we will coordinate with you to keep the noise and dust away from your essential daily tasks. It is a turnkey service from the first site survey to the final sign-off.

Complete safety features from stairs to pallet gates

A mezzanine is only as good as its access points. To make your new floor fully functional, we fabricate all the necessary extras right here. Need a robust steel staircase with non-slip treads? We have got you covered. What about safety balustrades and handrails that match your corporate colours? No problem. For industrial units, we often install pallet gates to allow for easy loading with a forklift, or cat ladders for maintenance access. We also handle the critical safety side, including 1-hour fire protection, fire-rated suspended ceilings, and column casings where required by law. It is about creating a workspace that is as functional as it is safe.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our bespoke mezzanine floor design and structural steelwork services in Southampton, Berkshire, Surrey and West Sussex , Berkshire, Surrey, and West Sussex.

Why Work With RA Steelworks Services LTD?

+

Choosing a fabricator is about more than just finding the lowest price. It’s about making sure your building is safe and your paperwork is in order. We take pride in our reputation for precision and reliability.
We hold UKAS accreditation to BS EN 1090-1 and are approved for Execution Class 2 (EXC2) structural steelwork. This isn't just a badge; it means every beam we cut and every joint we weld has been through a strict quality process. It gives your architect and building control officer the confidence they need to sign off on your project. Our welders are fully coded, meaning they have the certified skills to handle even the most critical load-bearing tasks. We are local, fully insured, and we understand the demands of the South Coast construction and marine industries.

How can a structural steel mezzanine help my Southampton business grow?

+

A mezzanine floor is one of the fastest ways to achieve commercial space expansion without the cost of moving premises. By building upwards, you can double your floor space for extra storage, office cubicles, or retail displays. Our industrial mezzanine floors are built using high-grade structural steel, creating a permanent, load-bearing platform that fits perfectly into your existing warehouse or unit.

What are the regulations for installing warehouse flooring and mezzanines?

+

Because a mezzanine is a significant structural addition, it must comply with BS EN 1090-1 standards. As UKAS-accredited fabricators, we make sure that the steelwork is CE-marked and safe for its intended use. You will usually need building regulations approval to make sure the floor meets fire safety and weight-loading requirements. We can help guide you through this process during the design and installation phase.

How much weight can a retail or office mezzanine floor actually hold?

+

The capacity of your mezzanine depends on what you plan to use it for. An office mezzanine floor usually requires a lower load rating than a heavy-duty industrial mezzanine used for pallet storage or machinery. During the design stage, we calculate the necessary beam sizes and column placements to make sure your platform is rock solid and fits your specific needs.

How long does the installation of a structural steel mezzanine take?

+

We aim to keep disruption to your business at a minimum. Because we fabricate the steel in our Southampton workshop first, the actual on-site installation is often very quick. Depending on the size and complexity, many mezzanine floors can be erected in just a few days. We’ll give you a clear timeline before we start so you can plan your operations around the work.
