Before installing a mezzanine, clarify building-owner consent, structural responsibilities, fire-safety requirements and any relevant BCA, SCDF or JTC conditions for your actual Singapore premises.
A mezzanine is not automatically exempt from statutory requirements because its structure is modular or demountable. Approval responsibilities may depend on the premises, structural works, occupancy, proposed floor use, access and fire-safety measures.
Start by reviewing the tenancy and building constraints with the property owner or landlord. A suitably appointed Qualified Person or other regulated professional should determine whether structural plans, fire-safety submissions, consent, approvals or certification are required for the proposed works.
Rack & Save can discuss mezzanine scope and product options. Formal professional submissions and specialist works must be carried out by qualified parties where required.
These are distinct images served from the Superblock gallery on the Rack & Save website. They illustrate a modular mezzanine system; they are not evidence of approval for a different premises.

Plans, engineering details, approvals and records must relate to the actual premises, not to these reference photographs.

Use this list to identify matters for your project team. Final requirements are site-specific and should be verified with the appropriate responsible parties.
Identify building ownership and check tenancy restrictions. Obtain landlord, MCST or JTC consent where required under the applicable property arrangements.
Determine whether the proposed warehouse storage, commercial work, office or operational use is permitted at this site. Do not assume the floor may be used for every activity.
Check with the appointed professional whether the proposed structural work requires calculations, drawings, BCA submissions or other engineering endorsements.
Review applicable fire-safety plan approval requirements, escape routes, protection systems, access arrangements and the relevant SCDF Fire Code provisions.
Consider stair layout, railings, landings, circulation, means of escape and safe handling routes when assessing the intended premises use.
Retain the approved scope, applicable drawings, floor-loading information, inspections and completion or certification records where required.
Where applicable, SCDF requires fire-safety plan approval before relevant fire-safety works commence. Occupancy-specific provisions must be read in context by suitably qualified parties; do not treat a provision for one mezzanine arrangement as a universal exemption.

Use this sequence before fabrication and installation. The responsible owner and appointed qualified parties should confirm obligations for the premises.
Document the location, floor area, proposed upper-floor use, loading and access routes.
Check the lease, building restrictions, current plans and required owner/landlord approvals.
Confirm responsibility for engineering assessments and any fire-safety or other submissions.
Proceed only on the agreed, appropriately reviewed scope and retain required records.
No. Building, structural, fire-safety, landlord and professional requirements differ according to the actual premises, work scope and intended use.
Do not assume modular or demountable construction removes statutory obligations. Seek project-specific confirmation of the relevant SCDF Fire Code requirements and any submissions.
JTC consent may be relevant depending on the lease and property restrictions. Review the applicable tenancy conditions and obtain confirmation where required.
Where required, the appointed Qualified Person and other relevant qualified professionals prepare and endorse the applicable plans or documentation. Confirm this responsibility in the project scope.
No universal limit should be assumed from a single fire-code clause, project photograph or product brochure. Applicable provisions depend on the premises, proposed use, configuration and professional assessment.
Send site photos, building address, clear height, floor dimensions, intended upper-floor activity, loading, staircase/access needs and any owner or landlord requirements.
Send us your proposed dimensions, site photographs, intended use, approximate loads and access requirements. We can discuss a suitable mezzanine system and quotation scope while project-specific approvals are confirmed by the responsible parties.
Property permissions, statutory submissions and specialist works must be confirmed for the actual premises.
