Store crating and packing supplies overhead and clear the dock floor." lang: en --- Image: Steel warehouse mezzanine inside an industrial facility (https://chicagomezzanines.com/assets/hero-location-DXiKWbzD.jpg) Bensenville, Illinois # Warehouse Mezzanines in Bensenville, IL We design and install warehouse mezzanines in Bensenville for air cargo forwarders that need dock floor space back. Storage mezzanines hold crating lumber, wrap, cartons and spare equipment overhead, so freight can be built up and broken down below. Each warehouse mezzanine is planned around the forklift paths that matter most. Forwarders on O'Hare's west side work in tight buildings with constant truck movement. Floor space near the doors is the most valuable space they have. (888) 553-7276 ## Our process for Bensenville mezzanines We map door positions, staging lanes and forklift turns first. The deck goes where it blocks nothing, usually along a wall or above an office block. The quote separates structure, decking, stairs, pallet gates and installation. Experienced installation crews we schedule and manage plan deliveries around your freight windows so the doors stay usable. Leased dock buildings often suit a free-standing mezzanine (https://chicagomezzanines.com/mezzanines/free-standing-mezzanine); to compare storage and office uses, see all warehouse mezzanines (https://chicagomezzanines.com/mezzanines) or start from the Chicago Mezzanines home page.

Pallet gates and drop zones should sit where a lift truck can serve them without crossing loading lanes. Cold winter air pours in through open doors. Supplies stored upstairs handle that well, but if a dispatch desk moves onto the deck, plan an enclosed, heated room. - Gates served without crossing lanes - Deck kept clear of door swings - Heated room for any desk work ## Forwarder mezzanine questions Short answers for operations managers working near O'Hare. ### What drives the cost of a storage deck for a forwarder? ### How big a deck do we need for crating supplies? ### Can a Bensenville deck move if we change buildings? ### What is included in the installation? ## What an industrial mezzanine frees up for forwarders Packing supplies spread along walls and into staging lanes. Lifting them overhead gives back floor for building skids and holding export freight. Space under the deck stays useful for shrink-wrap stations or lockable cages. Columns are anchored to the floor and spaced to keep it open. - Staging lanes cleared - Supplies stored overhead - Usable floor under the deck Image: Multi-level steel mezzanine inside an industrial warehouse (https://chicagomezzanines.com/assets/mezzanines-YVvKCAut.jpg) ## Request a Bensenville storage deck quote Send a sketch of your doors, staging lanes and the supplies you want overhead.
