Fire-Protected Mezzanine Floor: Expanding Office Space Efficiently
Process Control Equipment
Project Brief
Process Control Equipment, one of the largest independently owned stockists and distributors of valves, actuators, instrumentation, and automation packages across the UK and Europe, aimed to enhance their workspace functionality without compromising valuable warehouse storage. To meet this objective, Premier Facilities Management supplied and installed a 9m x 6m fire-protected mezzanine floor, creating three modern office spaces. Access was seamlessly integrated from the existing offices, ensuring a smooth transition between new and existing work areas. This setup allowed Process Control Equipment to maintain their storage efficiency while expanding office space in compliance with building regulations.

- Mezzanine Floor Installation: A 9m x 6m mezzanine floor was constructed with comprehensive fire protection measures, ensuring compliance with building regulations and safety standards.
- Partitioning and Fire Safety: Office spaces were created with FD30-rated partition walls and doors, while the mezzanine ceiling was fitted with FD60-rated tiles to provide effective fire resistance.
- Building Control Compliance: A full building control application was submitted to meet all regulatory requirements.
Mezzanine Floor Installation
To meet Process Control Equipment’s need for expanded office space without sacrificing warehouse storage, we installed a 9m x 6m mezzanine floor. Designed with FD60-rated ceiling tiles for fire protection, the mezzanine meets all building control regulations, providing both functionality and safety. This elevated workspace makes optimal use of vertical space within the warehouse, ensuring that valuable floor space remains available for inventory storage.
Our team handled the full building control application, providing essential documentation and ensuring compliance throughout the project. The mezzanine installation was completed seamlessly within the client’s three-month timeframe, aligning with their operational goals and safety requirements.

Office Partitioning with Fire Protection
The new mezzanine floor was further developed into three modern office spaces through the installation of FD30-rated partition walls and doors, fully equipped to meet fire safety standards. This setup not only protects personnel but also aligns with Process Control Equipment’s regulatory needs, ensuring robust safety measures across the new workspace.
We provided direct access to the new offices from the existing office area by knocking through a wall to create a dedicated access corridor. This seamless connection between workspaces allows for a streamlined workflow without compromising warehouse functionality. Our design and installation team worked closely with Process Control Equipment’s specifications, ensuring that each detail was tailored to their operational needs and industry standards.
