Why The Grate Guys
What to expect from automatic gate systems in Ajax
Sized To Your Opening
Every leaf is fabricated to the actual clear opening, grade slope, and back-run available, whether it's a 12-foot pedestrian-traffic entry or a 30-foot industrial cantilever clearing a sloped yard.
Built For The Duty
Frame gauge, infill, and roller hardware are matched to traffic, light commercial pedestrian access through high-cycle vehicle and forklift entries that run hundreds of openings a day.
Finish That Survives Outside
Hot-dip galvanized or powder-coat over galvanized resists road salt and weather, and stainless hardware is available for coastal or wash-down sites, so the gate stays square and the operator stays aligned for years.
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 automatic gate systems with Canadian-made fabrication, Canadian steel, clear local coordination, and a shop team close enough to solve site details before they become delays.
Our Process
How we specify, fabricate, and deliver Automatic Gate Systems
An automatic gate system is a custom steel slide or swing gate fabricated to your opening width, site grade, and the slide or swing operator you've specced, built operator-ready so the drive arm, rack, or hinge points land exactly where the automation needs them. We fabricate cantilever and track-rolling slide gates, single and bi-parting swing leaves, in galvanized or powder-coated structural steel, with reinforced frames, weldable hinge boxes, and conduit-ready posts for loops, photo-eyes, keypads, and intercoms. Made to order in our Toronto shop, licensed, insured, and WSIB-covered, with a workmanship warranty on every order, supplied and installed across the GTA and shipped Canada-wide.
- 01 Send your inquiry, drawings, photos, or a description of what you need.
- 02 We come measure and assess the Ajax site (or work from your specs and drawings).
- 03 We fabricate your automatic gate systems to spec in our shop, finished for the conditions.
- 04 We return to deliver and install it, set, levelled, and done right on site.
