We size the base plates and frame footprint so the unit's full operating dead load lands on the joists and beams below, not the roof deck. Every frame is detailed to your engineer's reactions so the path to structure is signed off before fabrication.
Each support is built tall enough to keep the RTU above the membrane, insulation, and curb flashing so water sheds and drains underneath. That clearance also lets roofers reflash around the legs years later without lifting the unit.
We set leg spacing and frame height to leave working room for filter swaps, coil access, and condensate lines on the panels your tech actually opens. The duct and pipe penetrations route through the frame instead of fighting it.
HSS members and plates are hot-dip galvanized so the steel holds up to standing rain, snow, and freeze-thaw on an exposed roof. The zinc coating carries the frame for decades without the rust bleed a painted stand develops up there.
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.
We support your rtu supports with Canadian-made fabrication, Canadian steel, clear local coordination, and a shop team close enough to solve site details before they become delays.
Rtu Supports is custom-fabricated or coordinated for commercial, industrial, municipal, institutional, retail, and construction sites, where fit, access, durability, and site conditions matter more than a stock product. The Grate Guys builds rtu supports around drawings, measurements, traffic duty, finish exposure, and installation constraints using mild steel, structural steel, galvanized finish, powder-coat, stainless details, or aluminum where the site calls for it, 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.

Around Ottawa, this work is shaped by public-sector documentation, winter exposure, institutional sites, and coordinated delivery windows. The Grate Guys treats each request as a practical scoping job: the quote starts with what must be measured, what load or use the part has to survive, and how the fabrication will reach the site.
The Ottawa checklist for this product covers engineered loads, connection details, weld requirements, finish, delivery split, lifting access, and inspection coordination. That keeps the page tied to a real product and a real local project, with clear constraints, site details, and quote-ready information a buyer can act on.
