Cost overview: three mezzanine floor scenarios
To give you an idea of expected costs, here are three scenarios based on floor size: 200 m², 2,000 m² and 10,000 m.
Scenario 1: a 200 m² floor
This size is ideal for smaller applications, such as extra storage or a workspace in an industrial hall. Due to the scale, cost per square metre tends to be higher. A standard steel or timber floor would cost between €80 and €145 per m², with solid materials pushing the price higher.
For light loads (up to 250 kg/m²), costs stay within this range. Heavy-duty use (up to 500 kg/m²) increases the cost to €150 to €240 per m². Complex designs, like unique shapes or multiple levels, can push costs to €200–€250 per m².
Scenario 2: a 2,000 m² floor
Larger surfaces offer economies of scale, reducing cost per square metre. Standard floors fall between €80 and €145 per m². Solid materials may add to the price but enhance durability.
For light-duty use, prices remain similar. For heavier use, costs range from €150 to €240 per m². Complex designs also come with a surcharge of €200–€250 per m².
Additional features such as staircases, railings or safety nets are often needed in larger projects. Expect €50–€75 per m² on top of installation costs for such extras.
Scenario 3: a 10,000 m² floor
Ideal for large-scale operations like distribution centres or major warehouses, this size benefits most from low cost per square metre. Standard costs range from €80 to €145 per m², with solid materials increasing the total.
Light load-bearing costs remain consistent, while heavy-duty setups range from €150 to €240 per m². Simple layouts stay within base pricing, but complex, multi-level designs may raise costs to €250 per m².
Transport and installation become key cost drivers. Domestic transport ranges from €500 to €1,000, while international deliveries may exceed this. Installation with extras (stairs, safety features) costs €50–€75 per m².
