Why The Grate Guys
What to expect from access hatch covers in Ajax
Rated for real loads
Choose pedestrian, light-vehicle, or forklift load ratings, with reinforced leaves and frames sized to the live load the deck or vault lid actually sees.
Sealed against water
Channel-drained frames, gasketed leaves, and a drain coupling carry runoff away, keeping vaults, mechanical pits, and roof access dry through GTA weather.
Frame set flush to the curb
The same crew that builds the hatch can place and anchor the frame into concrete, steel, or roof curb openings, then check swing, hold-open arms, and gasket contact on site.
Made in Canada
Why Canadian-made metalwork matters
Custom metalwork made in Canada gives contractors, property teams, and facilities tighter quality control, faster lead times, and fewer cross-border delays. The work is fabricated in our Toronto shop, with Canadian steel and other metals selected when the application requires them.
Custom, local, built to spec
We support your access hatch covers with Canadian-made fabrication, Canadian steel, clear local coordination, and a shop team close enough to solve site details before they become delays.
