Work Platforms

Porta-King’s work platforms allow you to gain the second level space you need without incurring the cost of new building construction or leasing. These work platform structures create new areas for manufacturing and offices "out of thin air." Each work platforms are engineered to provide a solution to your specific space requirements. Our design team focuses on how we can help you utilize the work platform so that it will provide the proper performance in a safe, efficient work environment.

Prefabricated work platforms are a cost effective and time efficient way to create additional work space while maintaining the use of the existing floor space below. Utilizing unused ceiling space is a far more economical alternative to create work platforms when compared to the cost creating additional space via new construction. The prefabricated design also saves time since all components to create the platform arrive on-site, ready for immediate installation.

Unlike many of our competitors, we’ll supply you with a truly prefabricated mezzanine system. All of our connecting hardware is pre-welded onto the structural components prior to shipping. Many of our competitor’s call their work platforms prefabricated, but that just means the various components used to construct their mezzanine are fabricated prior to shipping. Unlike a PK Structures mezzanine, this doesn’t always mean these components arrive welded to the structural components and ready to be bolted together.

At Porta-King, we specialize in designing structural work platforms to satisfy the specific requirements of wide variety of applications. We ask questions to understand the intended use of the work platform to ensure the final decision will satisfy your need for efficiency and safety under your planned working conditions.

The design of a work platform is not as simple as specifying a size and load capacity. As the use varies, so must the structural design. Some work platforms may be used to support machinery or equipment necessary to perform a specific work function. Applications with high point loads require that special attention be paid to the ability of the deck to distribute these loads to the support members.  Porta-King’s professional design team will aid in designing a work platform that will meet the exact needs of your facility.
