An Art Metal division. Built for a single job.
Span Line Systems exists so that mezzanine and industrial-stair work gets specialist attention inside an established Ontario structural-steel shop — Art Metal Canada — that fabricates commercial and industrial steel across the province.
The parent shop is Art Metal. Span Line is the focused arm.
Art Metal Canada has fabricated structural and architectural steel out of Ontario across a long-established history — everything from staircases for homes to industrial frames for warehouses. Span Line Systems was spun up as a focused division so that mezzanines and industrial stair systems get specialist engineering, dedicated project management, and a predictable lead time — instead of being wedged between architectural jobs on the shop floor.
What that means for you
- In-house engineering. Stamped structural drawings produced by licensed Ontario engineers on staff — not white-labelled.
- CWB W47.1 certified welding. Every weld traceable, every fabricator qualified.
- Code-current. Ontario Building Code 2024 baseline, with IBC cross-reference where the project calls for it.
- One team, site to shop to site. Your project lead is the same person across the engineering, fabrication, and install phases.
