Building A Large Mezzanine With Stair Case
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- In this video, we add a large mezzanine and stair case to one of our previous build series. Adding this large mezzanine allowed our client to utilize a ton more space in his shop, and by having the large stair case, it will easily be accessible even when carrying items to or from the storage space.
Building a mezzanine is a great cost effective way to gain additional storage in a shop or garage without needing to make the footprint larger.
If you want to go watch this building be erected as a full build series, below is the link.

*Very easy to set up and use, attractive but be sure you understand the height--it's not tall. The heat is not overwhelming, but steady and pleasant fireplace **fireplace.homes** . It's quiet, too. I like the possibility of easily moving it from room to room in the event we want supplemental heat elsewhere. Definitely a good buy.*
With Ryan's ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxy_pn55PK60wAV3X_C_RoLS_67mNonoCE plan I was like one taken by the hand and led step by step from start to finish. Thank you very much Ryan!
That comment about the screw and how it cuts into the wood is literally the reason why I enjoy your channel. Small details that will never be seen is the type of dude I want building for me and well worth any amount you charge. I wish I had the land to have you build me a shop.
Kudos Kyle & Co.
This is a young man's work and you guys rock.
I'm over 60 now, and drove tractor trailers most of my life until I blew out my back.
Recently had to put all my schtuff into storage, our home and my shop. Saw a 12' x 40' stall where a tenant had built a loft to stow some of his stuff and I asked the owner of the storage facility if I could build one of these mezzanines inside my unit.
Long story short . . . He loved what I did (six months ago) and now I have built a total of three of these, including one for the owner himself - with "Folding" stairs !
He's very excited about it and asked me to get some sort of list to show his other tenants.
So now I have a "brochure" and have two more jobs pending already !
In order to speed things up and be able to make intelligent estimates for my materials and labor I started brushing up on my 3-D modeling using SketchUp. I studied Autodesk Maya in college some ten years ago after blowing out my back, but SketchUp is just fine for this stuff.
Then I run across your videos !
I subbed after the first video, actually only halfway through. I knew I wanted to see more of your work.
Great stuff dude. Really, you do good work.
Thanks for the videos too.
Like I said, this work is for young guys like yourself. My back is killing me, but I need the income and can't, absolutely CAN'T drive a truck anymore. I work for myself and I can pace myself according to my bodies abilities.
Looking forward to many more videos . . .
Currently binging out on - Part 3: 80' Truss Install With 2 Guys: Large WorkShop series.
Love it guys !
How could 99 people dislike this. What’s to dislike.Good work, built well. Well done.
Thanks man... always gonna be haters
How does anyone give a thumbs down to your videos? You’re like the Norm Abrams of postframe construction!
Ha thanks mam
i'm late to the party, to answer your question..jealousy.
Dude, when I watch videos of experienced craftsmen at work, it puts my ego in check. Makes me wanna tear out what I built in my barn and start over. Great video!
Not intended as criticism.....those 2x12's became 2x10's(looks like an 1- 1/2" notch) when you notched the bottom of those joists and header ......Love your work ethic and your laser straight buildings. I really enjoy watching you join 2 pieces of metal together, pure art.
I love my mezzanine in my shed. Not only does it give me the room up above for storage, but also a lockable, heated room down below and an area for hardware where the ceiling is 8' and can be lighted real well. They make a lot of extra usable space if your not parking big machinery back there.
Hats off to the plumber that hooked up the floor heat. That is one impressive installation on the wall under the stairs.
Not floor hear... that’s all shut offs for water fixtures
After watching your videos, you’ve convinced me I need a mezzanine when I build my shop. Greatly increases storage while losing very minimal floor space.
hell yeah.. how else you gonna watch the game while looking at your toys? Plus you can use under the mezz for racks and racks of parts storage bins ;-)
This guy is a phenomenal carpenter. Crazy good skill.
It is a pleasure to see someone not simply cut past the line to remove a notch when framing or making a stringer.
Did anyone else have to stop the video and just look at that amazing plumbing job for a few minutes?
Clients son did great work
I’ve watched this video 100 times... great job guys
I love watching you build. Years ago, I worked for Carolina Building Systems in Salisbury,NC. We did post frame construction and built many barns, sheds and multipurpose buildings such as restaurants and stores. Some call it pole barns. I enjoyed working with wood and putting metal roofs and metal walls up. My dream is to build a post frame home with radiant heat floors. It's just a dream and out of my price range but your videos inspire me to want to build again. Thanks for all you do.
I too have a DREAM barn/shop build plan with my living quarters above. Some day I will drive into my shop through the automatic roll-up door, exit my truck, unload my groceries, and walk right up the stairs into my home.
after watching this im so happy that we have the metric system here in Australia
This dude has more tools than Norm. Love it!
I appreciate you doing a separate video on the staircase!
Amazing work as always! Watching this the day after I built my (much smaller) garage loft (probably should have watched before lol). GRK should sponsor Kyle. Because of him, I don't think twice about spending extra for them. They're a joy to use.
Who’d have thought that one day, we’d all be using battery powered cordless caulk gun😅; but OH MY.....DOES IT TRULY help the job go faster, & help your hands/arms from not “tiring” from a long day of caulking😉
Loft looks great, waiting to see the next video now😊
Cheers✌🏼
Battery powered hammer drills, cordless nail guns, saws, everything!
Forearms are going exinct on site
S H lol
I like all the cord less/hose less power tools. Reduce trip hazards, tangled mess of cords etc. Plus the $ cost of replacing or repairing damaged cords and hoses. Anyhoo another great build by you guys.
Why do pros make it look so damn easy???
So glad I found your channel!
Hey young guys nice job I’ve been in the trades 34;years little advice where good knee pads now you’ll be glad you did 30 years later
as a weekend home hobbyist I love your videos. Thought I doubt I'll ever build anything as extravagant as you guys do, I find myself learning new tips and better processes to do regular tasks easier/better/safer and more efficient. Keep up the great videos guys! Lots of videos saved to remind me how to do things when I eventually build my modest 1000sq foot shop on my property.
I have the m12 version of that caulk gun. I use it it a lot between roofing and remodeling. It is truly a game changer.
I loved that you go with all wireless gear.
the look that you and greg give each other @ 21:30 is PRICELESS lmao
The attention to detail is impressive. Wish this kind of work ethic was more common these days
Man even though it is just a shop you attention to detail and precision is outstanding probably better than most contractors who build houses. Me and my dad used to build pole barn garages back in the early nineties.
Love watching you guys using pine, working with a such soft timber sure makes things look easy, where I live we use Jarrah for building timbers, when I was poor I used recycled Jarrah, man that's as hard as steel, every piece has to be predrilled.
GRK is all we use! Love Them!
Looks like a good winter project working indoors
This build quality is so high. I would love working with this guy.
I live in italy and i'm quarantined because of covid19, i miss my job and so i watch you! awesome job!
nicely done. Great attention t detail. THANK you for making all the edges of the subfloor blue across the length.
Cannot find guys to do nice accurate work like this. The disaster stories I could tell are mind boggling.
This young guy is still learning this business. Got a long way to go. Keep at it.
Amazingly satisfying to watch
Your lumber selection is outstanding. Kudos to your supplier.
Menards
@@RRBuildings Regarding the subfloor: I noticed there was no 1/8 gap where the sides of the panels meet. I’m installing a tongue/groove subfloor now and want to know if it makes a difference, thanks.
That......is one HELL of a workshop. I'm freaking jealous. And the mezzanine you guys put in is damn impressive work. If I ever win the lottery, I know who to call now....
Good job. Looks perfect. Bounce goes the Makita impact driver, but hey, Makita just keeps going. Even after a 2-2,5meter drop. Thumbs up to you all, for making great content and fantastic builds.
Love your respons Kyle.. No one saw that... ☺️😉
Assuming that your client is going to complete the handrail at a later date? Another AWESOME build. You guys ROCK!
Kyle, if I EVER win the lottery YOU will build my dream barn! You do EXCELLENT work brother! Love your videos
Nice job Kyle. The only thing that we do different in my area is we have to put two by four runners on the bottom of each stringer and also underneath the ground floor step we put a pressure-treated plate down , notched and nailed to the bottom of the stringers. Then we screw the plate to the concrete floor with concrete anchors which sort of pinches the stringers between the top and the the bottom of the run. No chance of moving.

🤜🤛
This is timely... I'm currently building out a mezzanine for my shop. But after watching all of this, I'm glad I chose to build it out of steel.
Why
@@user-hd8ej8yx9p Steel is forever, I can store heavy and functional equipment on the top. Plus it was actually pretty fast to make from scratch. The stairs were the only thing that took the most individual time out of the whole project.
did you save on labor cost or did the materials catch up? how much space is yours taking up, looking to build a second floor.
@@mysteriousknowledgetexts9809 I ended up going with steel pallet racking as my base legs. I saved tons of money, plus I can literally store tons on top. I did in fact make a stair case out of steel tubing, tread plate etc. I have about 420 sq ft. And with every two sections of pallet rack I add, I can increase the floor space by 210 sq ft. I made the decking out of two layers of opposite stacked 4x8 heavy duty plywood, screwed to a steel ladder frame that I lifted in place with a forklift into three sections that I was able to bolt together once laid on top of the pallet racking. The whole project only cost me $1800 for everything.
@@EcoMouseChannel not to mention it won't get squeaky over time. currently living in a townhouse and the stairs and upper floor are so noisy to the point it gets on my nerves.
Hello Kyle, That 12v Milwaukee caulking gun does a great job doesn't it. Got one three years ago and really like it. However be careful when using the PL 400. I was using PL Premium and the temps got below 40, no real problem until it got below 35. Then the gun blew the tube apart. What a mess (gasoline was the best solvent to clean it up). Thought it was a freak but the temps were below thirty and I blew two more before I woke up and realized that one of the downsides to using the PL below their recommended 40 degree temp was the viscosity was going way up and the gun had the power to blow the tube when it did. Had to go back to Liquid Nails til spring time. When the PL blows it takes quite a bit of time to rescue the gun! Nice job. Take care. Doug
I really like the stair detail around that pipe 👌🏼
LOL "1/8 inch off...have to live with that" I literally laughed out loud. Love your work. Keep it up...
Haha... did the same thing too. An 8th over 30ft... why are we talking about rhis
In the uk we call that a baw hair thickness 😂
I think I would have used LVL's for the beam. 16' is quite a span and most of the mezzanines we have built had floor loading requirements of like 80lbs psf. Nice video
Us folk down south call that a loft🤣 great video
Very impressive... Excellent quality workmanship
Watch out for OSHA violations on those ladders guys. Great work. New subscriber.
OUTSTANDING
One of my favorite videos from your channel.
You are awesome and such a hard worker. Your helper are lucky to have you as a boss. My only comment is wear eye protection.
I wish I could learn and work for you bro.
You are truly a guy who takes pride in perfection.
Found another great channel this guy is super cool with how he explains everything
Love watching you guys put up the buildings, mostly because of your attention to detail and it's obvious that you take pride in your work. Keep up the good work. also like to see the interior finishing when you do it and the completed buildings even if you don't do all the inside work.
Lucky client! Sweet building.
I didn't know canelo built buildings??!! 😂 😂 😂
Looks amazing man!
Saludos from Dallas Texas.
Wow. My hat comes off to you. Someone as skilled as you needs to be celebrated! Fantastic build :)
Staircase install was awesome 👍
I really like how you take the time at key points to explain what you’re doing. These small tips are invaluable! Thanks for sharing them.
OSHA is going to love this video !! hahah no safety glasses , some safety shoes , no one hold the ladders , no hard hats , makeshift scaffold ! wow
So quit whining and call ‘em.
🤜🤛
Looks great! Quality work all around. Probably would put bolts through that three board post and the metal bracket. A couple more higher up. Everything else is spot on. Cheers
One last quick note: the automatic garage doors w/ the motors etc....fastened to the wall right by the door itself; w/o having to run the long “standard” tracks.....are awesome to use & definitely the way to go for a workshop, commercial project, & even your own residential home garage door💪🏼👍🏻
Just a beautiful job Kyle as always. Well thought out and clear. That’s one happy customer I imagine!
Who else tought he was going to crush the bug? D;
It was driving me nuts!
Yeah
i came here for comments about the bug.. lol
I was rooting for the bug. Unfortunately, i don't think he made it.
@@LeicaCat heh unfortunately he stopped moving after that one camera cut so yeah... think he's flat.
Great job, greeetings from Europe
Awesome addition to the workspace!
Absolutely love RR. Everything so professional and clean
Great video. I'm considering buying some land in Alabama, and building a barndominium. Home and shop together.
You and your company does such a good job! Thanks for the donation.
Would love for you to build a shop for me! Love the attention to detail you and your team displays!
Fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
nice little project to add tons more space, thanks for posting
Well done guys. Thanks for sharing your knowledge..
Thanks for pasting. I am wanting to do one my self. Great job
I'd favorise screws than nails for the floor panels as sometimes they pop out
Great video anyway
thanks for sharing!
That came out as perfect as you could imagine.
When Kyle says, "I would probably run into that problem." What he means is, "since I'm a genius, I will avoid said issue"
Genius? Not even a good framer
17:48 Yes, the boards are only 47 7/8 inches, but I thought that the 1/8" difference was the gap between sheets recommended by the supplier to allow for expansion. I seem to remember The Essential Craftsman saying that.
Love your channel and your work, by the way. Thanks for sharing.
Im pretty sure that’s for sheathing especially roof sheathing not for subfloor applications. I could be wrong though
The video very help
Thank you so much
Those stairs are a beast! Looks like You’d be able to drive ATV’s up those with the 2x treads.
Looks amazing
What were the height dimensions of the building and the lift? I like the headroom you had on the main floor and loft. Thanks for the vid!!
0:55 Heading east from the Milwaukee drill you have a little friend coming to inspect your work.
1:15 --> 1:41 NOOOOO you killed it you monster !!!!
1:42 Oh no it's fine
How did you know you would miss the in floor radiant heat when drilling the holes to anchor the column? Was that built into the original plan?
I believe so, he mentioned it was poured 12" there for that column.
He stated that a 12 inch thick pad was poured in the floor where the bracket got shot to the floor. I almost missed it to. Happy 2020😀
would love to see a video of this shop completed!
Great working brother
Great detail shots and full area frames for reference. Maybe the client should think about big ass fans for that ceiling.
BEAUTIFUL JOB BOYS.
Da gusto veros trabajar, se nota la profesionalidad, gracias por los videos.
Bro you guys do phenomenal work Respect !
Thank you
Your brave standing on top of them step ladders 😮
Your client must be planning on driving that John Deere up those stairs! Holy crap those are built strong!
dont give him ideas xD
Great job. Well done.
How come you did not stagger the plywood’s .
That thought occurred to me too, then I thought, well gee for the SPEED it saved. Looks good and clearly displaying it in raw form then burgermeister's all would say the same thing. I say F* it. no weak points IMHO and looks master crafted. Then again Carpet or paint and it all "disappears".
Staggered sheets adds to rigidity and structure. Those are tongue and groove so there is immensely less chance of slippage between sheets and the joists are framed at 12" on center. It's completely over engineered and insanely strong. So with the layout and choice of materials staggering the sheets is really just a redundancy at this point.
It looked to me that the sheets were staggered.
This is great info, why would anyone dislike this ?
haters gonna hate.
