What Customers Say

Built on Referrals.

★★★★★

Needed 3,200 sq ft above our receiving dock — tight column layout, dock door clearances, and a pallet drop zone. GVP designed around every constraint. Kit arrived labeled and organized, crew had it bolted up in 4 days.

DH
D. HartwellOperations Manager · Phoenix, AZ
★★★★★

Just needed a 600 sq ft loft in our garage. Jon's team sized it right, priced it fairly, and the drawings were clear enough that two of us assembled it over a weekend. Quality is excellent.

MR
M. ReyesOwner · Chandler, AZ
★★★★★

We've priced mezzanines from three suppliers. GVP came in sharper on price, communicated better throughout fabrication, and the kit was more organized on arrival. Already planning a second phase.

TB
T. BowmanFacilities Director · Las Vegas, NV
★★★★★

The 3D configurator got my attention, but the real value was how straightforward quoting was. Described my space, they sent layout options, and we had a number in under a week. Solid company.

KC
K. CallowayWarehouse Manager · Tucson, AZ
★★★★★

Needed an access platform over a production line, not a standard mezzanine. GVP understood the equipment underneath and designed around it. The fit was perfect. Highly recommend for industrial applications.

SR
S. RuizPlant Manager · Ontario, CA
★★★★★

First call to delivery was exactly 10 weeks — right in the window quoted. Every component labeled, hardware separated by connection type, drawings matched what arrived. This is how a kit system should work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Go Vertical Platforms manufactures custom mezzanine and elevated platform kit systems. We design and fabricate steel platforms that help businesses maximize vertical space — turning underutilized overhead areas into productive square footage for storage, offices, production, or equipment support.
Warehousing & distribution, manufacturing, automotive, retail, aerospace & defense, cold storage, data centers, residential, and institutional facilities. If you have a vertical space challenge, we have a solution.
Not sure if your application is a fit? Call us — we've built platforms for a wide range of uses across the country.
True custom kit systems designed for your space, pre-fabricated bolt-together components for fast assembly, no welding required in most cases, and a direct relationship from design through delivery. Engineering services available for projects that require them.
We focus on the right platform — not the fastest quote on a standard product.
Yes — both end users and trade partners. We work directly with building owners and facility managers, and partner with general contractors, material handling integrators, racking installers, and design-build firms.
Steel Mezzanines, Work Platforms & Maintenance Decks, Rack-Supported Platforms, Multi-Level Mezzanines, Catwalk Systems, Equipment Support Platforms, and Residential Loft Systems.
Highly custom. We design around your space — footprint shape (L, U, irregular), column placement around obstructions, deck surface type, stair location and style, handrail design, finish, and integrated features like pallet drop zones or conveyor openings.
Our design team works from your floor plan, photos, or site measurements.
Structural columns & base plates, primary and secondary beams (pre-drilled), deck panels, stair system, perimeter handrail & toe plate, all connection hardware, anchor bolt kit, and assembly drawings.
No welding required in the field for most installations.
Bar Grating (steel or galvanized) for light & ventilation; Checkered Plate for heavy loads; Structural Plywood (resin-coated) for office areas; FRP Fiberglass Grating for wash-down environments; Composite/Specialty available on request.
Yes. We design around building columns, sprinkler drops, lighting, overhead doors, utilities, and drainage. Share your facility drawings or photos early — the more we know, the better your kit fits your space.
Not all GVP systems require formal engineering. Many residential and smaller platforms are sold as designed kits — the customer receives assembly drawings and takes responsibility for installation and local requirements. For larger commercial and industrial projects where engineering is required, we can coordinate stamped drawings through a licensed PE.
Engineering services are available — not automatic on every order. We'll advise on what your project needs.
Per IBC Table 1607.1 minimum design live loads:
  • 50 psf — Office / residential use
  • 60–90 psf — Light access / catwalk / maintenance
  • 125 psf — Light storage / light manufacturing (IBC minimum for storage)
  • 250 psf — Heavy storage / warehouse / pallet use
  • 500+ psf — Heavy industrial / equipment support
Not sure what load you need? Tell us your intended use and we'll recommend the right rating.
It depends on your project type and location:
  • Residential / personal use — Many residential and private-use mezzanines (garages, shops) may not require a permit depending on your jurisdiction. Verify with your local building department.
  • Commercial / industrial use — In most commercial settings, mezzanines trigger building permit requirements under IBC Section 505.
We do not handle permitting. That is the customer's responsibility. We can provide design drawings to support your permit application if needed.
Check with your local building department before installation — requirements vary widely.
Common references: IBC Section 505, AISC (steel construction), and ASCE 7 (design loads). Our kits are fabricated to reasonable industry standards for the intended use. For projects where full code compliance is required, engineering services and jurisdiction-specific design are available on request.
Code compliance is the customer's and installer's responsibility. We're happy to support projects that need documentation.
Discovery → Concept Layout → Proposal → Order & Design → Fabrication → Delivery. We stay with you through every step.
Design & drawings: 1–2 weeks. Fabrication: 4–8 weeks. Total order-to-ship: typically 8–12 weeks. Rush scheduling available in some circumstances.
Contact us early — the sooner we start, the sooner your kit ships.
Desired footprint, deck height, intended use, load requirement, deck surface preference, stair locations, facility drawings or photos, and project location. Don't have everything? That's fine — we can start with the basics.
Yes. We ship throughout the continental United States via flatbed or step-deck truck. Our kits are packaged and labeled for efficient unloading and organized assembly.
We are supply-only. Installation is handled on your end. Three common options:
  • DIY — experienced maintenance teams regularly self-install our kits using our assembly drawings
  • Hire helpers — a general labor crew familiar with structural bolting and basic rigging
  • Hire a contractor — a local GC, steel erector, or material handling installer
Our bolt-together, pre-drilled format makes installation straightforward for any of these approaches.
We're happy to walk your crew through the drawings and answer questions before and during assembly.
In most cases, no. Our kits are designed for fully bolted assembly — all connections are pre-drilled and hardware is included. No welding needed on-site, which simplifies logistics and speeds up assembly.
For an experienced 3–4 person crew: under 2,000 sq ft — 2–4 days; 2,000–5,000 sq ft — 4–8 days; larger systems — 1–3+ weeks.
Pricing varies based on size, load, deck type, and site factors. As a general reference, steel mezzanine kits commonly range from $25 to $75+ per square foot for supply only. Installation is additional. The best path to accurate pricing is a direct quote from our team.
Comparing mezzanine cost to leasing additional space almost always shows significant savings.
Yes — a key advantage of our bolted kit system. Because components are bolted (not welded), a mezzanine can be disassembled, relocated, and reinstalled. We retain your drawings to facilitate future additions.
Mezzanines are generally classified as depreciable property (equipment), which may allow accelerated depreciation and potential Section 179 deductions. Consult your CPA — this can be a significant financial benefit.
Many customers factor accelerated depreciation into their ROI analysis when comparing a mezzanine to permanent construction.
We warrant our kits against defects in materials and workmanship. Coverage does not extend to installation errors, misuse, overloading, or unauthorized modifications. Contact us for project-specific warranty language.
Steel mezzanines are low-maintenance. Recommended practices: annual visual inspections, bolt torque check after initial loading, touch-up painting on worn finish areas, and never exceeding the posted load rating. Any impact damage should be assessed before return to service.
Yes, with design review. We retain records for all projects, enabling compatible additions. Do not make structural modifications without review — cutting beams or removing columns without analysis can compromise structural integrity.
Contact us before any modifications. We can usually provide a quick feasibility assessment and quote.
