Why The Grate Guys
What to expect from area drains in Aurora
Load Rated For Traffic
Specify pedestrian, light vehicle, forklift, or heavy traffic duty, and we size bar thickness, spacing, and bearing so the grate carries the wheel loads it will actually see.
Open Area To Match Flow
Slot pattern and bar spacing are tuned to your drainage rate and debris, wide open for plaza stormwater, tighter for heel-safe walkways and wash-down floors.
Finish For Wet Environments
Hot-dip galvanizing or stainless steel resists standing water, salt, and chemicals outdoors and in wash-down areas, with powder-coat available where appearance matters.
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 area drains with Canadian-made fabrication, Canadian steel, clear local coordination, and a shop team close enough to solve site details before they become delays.
