Before you tour a mill
Eight things to check in mill space
Mill buildings were built for machinery, so they can carry almost anything. They also vary floor to floor. Bring this list to every tour, and we'll get the answers in writing.
A converted Fall River mill
Floor load
lbs / sq ft
Older mills often carry heavy loads, but confirm the rating for your floor before moving in equipment.
Column spacing
ft × ft
Timber or iron columns set your racking, workstation and production layout.
Clear height
ft to beam
Measure to the lowest beam or sprinkler line, not to the ceiling deck.
Freight elevator
lbs · door size
Upper floors are only as usable as the elevator that serves them.
Loading
docks · drive-ins
Ask how many doors, how they're shared, and whether trailers can turn in the yard.
Power
amps · 3-phase
Check the service available to your suite, not just to the building.
Sprinklers & egress
wet · dry · stairs
Your use and occupancy can change what fire code requires of the space.
HVAC
system · who pays
Find out whether heating and cooling are tenant-controlled and who maintains them.
