Western Pacific Storage Solutions specializes in efficiently engineered Multilevel Shelving systems, including custom Industrial Mezzanines and integrated Steel Stairs, work platforms, gates, and railings.
Safety and Engineering Excellence: Creating a safe working environment is paramount. Our engineering team is renowned for designing solutions where safety is built into every component. Our rigid frames maintain structural integrity, minimizing the effect of impact loads, seismic activity, and accidental overloads. Our systems meet all seismic zone and impact resistance requirements, assuring a secure work environment above ground level.
Maximize Space, Minimize Cost: Installing a two-level work platform or Industrial Mezzanine system can effectively double your usable floor space and optimize your facility’s vertical air space. WPSS Multilevel Shelving is a highly economical choice, costing less than 30% of the cost of a new building.
We offer two primary types of mezzanine systems:
- Hybrid Mezzanine: Uses formed-galvanized beams with square-structural columns.
- Structural Work Platform: Recommended for applications where loading requirements exceed the Hybrid system, using heavy-duty structural columns, beams, struts, and joists.
Core Features: Safety, Capacity, and Compliance
- Code Compliance Assured: Exceeds most required manufacturing standards, including IBC, OSHA, SBCC, and Seismic Zone 4 regulations. Full permit services, engineering calculations, and drawings are provided to guarantee compliance in every state.
- Superior Capacity & Spans: The rigid frame construction features stronger connections, allowing for greater load bearing capacities and wider spans than competing systems, resulting in fewer columns and greater space planning flexibility.
- Cost & Financial Benefits: Our systems cost significantly less than new construction. As a depreciable piece of industrial equipment (not a permanent building fixture), your investment can be easily dismantled and relocated or resold.
- High-Strength Steel: Uses high-strength, lightweight steel (up to 38% stronger and 1/3 less weight than conventional structural steel) with standard 125 psi design capacity. Standard finish is galvanized, with powder coat colors available.
- Versatile Integration: Multilevel Shelving platforms, stairs, and rails are designed to interface seamlessly with all WPSS shelving brands, including Deluxe, RiveTier, and Pacific for integrated pick modules.
Types of Work Platforms (Industrial Mezzanines)
- Freestanding Work Platform: Provides optimum usable space both above and below. Supported by columns connected only to the primary floor. Our high tensile steel provides a stronger product using less material by weight.
- Shelving-Supported Work Platform: Uses inherent shelving or rack members below to withstand the loads placed on the upstairs level. Ideal for transferring floor-level storage to an upstairs area, featuring open spans up to 30 feet.
Multilevel Shelving Solutions: Safe Access and Optimized Cube
WPSS’s solutions are rooted in engineering clarity, cubic efficiency, and cost effectiveness allowing you to safely build up, not out.
Integrated Access Systems
- Industrial Steel Stairs (IBC Compliant): Meet and exceed IBC code specifications (Nominal rise is 7”, run is 11”). Available in two standard widths (34″ ID and 36″ ID).
- Crossover Bridges: Designed to provide convenient and safe passage over obstacles like conveyor belts, forklift thoroughfares, or pipelines.
- Safety Gates and Guardrails: Industrial safety swing and sliding gates (4′, 5′, 6′, 8′ standard widths) and IBC-compliant guardrails ensure employee protection at all elevations.
High Bay & Catwalk Shelving
Multilevel Shelving platforms and catwalks are integrated with high-bay shelving systems, providing safe pedestrian access between aisles and lanes, and over obstacles like conveyors.
Deckover Systems
Platforms built over existing closed shelving systems to create functional upper-level storage or work space.
Specialized Rooms
Double-deck “room within a room” structures are ideal for creating isolated workspaces, such as supervisor’s offices, computer-friendly areas, climate-controlled environments, or clean rooms.
Outdoor Canopies
Galvanized exterior systems ideal for covered outdoor storage, meeting environmental requirements for live load (20 psf) and wind load (70 mph).
Exhibit Structures
Sleek, pre-engineered, free-standing platforms perfect for trade show exhibits, offering large open spans and minimal components for fast, reconfigurable deployment.
