Low-profile raised access floor system with integrated cable management

The flexibility of access flooring — without the height constraints.

Our low-profile raised access floor system delivers the flexibility of traditional access flooring — without the height penalty.

Engineered for use in Type I (Fire Restrictive) and Type II (Non-Combustible) buildings in accordance with the International Building Code, this system is purpose-built for environments where space is limited but performance is non-negotiable.

With a minimal floor height, our system enables efficient cable management, power distribution, and underfloor air delivery while preserving valuable floor-to-ceiling space. It installs easily in both new construction and retrofit applications — making it an ideal solution for offices, control rooms, and light commercial environments.

Designed to integrate seamlessly with standard carpet tiles, the system maintains a clean, professional aesthetic while providing immediate and ongoing access to critical infrastructure below.

Threshold & Ramps

Smooth edge-of-floor transitions.

At the perimeter of the raised floor, an extruded aluminum threshold creates a low-slope transition from the surrounding slab. Carts, chairs, and ADA-accessible equipment roll over the edge without catching — no trip hazard, no step.

Threshold profiles are matched to the floor tile height so the carpet transition reads as a single, continuous plane. Ramps and ADA-compliant slopes are available where additional clearance is required.
