Industrial mezzanines & steel stairs in Guelph.
Span Line engineers, builds, and installs structural mezzanines, equipment platforms, and steel stairs for Guelph's advanced-manufacturing and food sectors — the Hanlon Business Park and York Road industrial areas.
In short: We're an Ontario fabricator serving Guelph with mezzanines, equipment platforms, and stairs, stamped to OBC 2024 and welded to CWB W47.1. Guelph is about an hour down the 401 and Hanlon, within our install range, with shipping for supply-only orders.

For the Hanlon corridor.
Guelph runs on advanced manufacturing and food processing — a deep automotive-parts and machining base plus agri-food operations across the Hanlon Business Park, the York Road / Guelph Junction industrial area, and the corridors along the 401, Hanlon Parkway (Highway 6), and Highway 7. It's a market where equipment platforms, process-access steel, and durable work decks are everyday requirements.
Manufacturing and food floors both reward steel built to a real spec — CWB-certified welds, finishes suited to a wash-down or process environment, and platforms sized to the equipment they carry. At about an hour down the 401, Guelph sits within our install range, with modular detailing for supply-only orders.
Steel that solves a floor problem.

Measure, stamp, build, install.
-
01
Site measure
A ~30-minute visit to capture the equipment footprint, access, clear heights, and any wash-down or finish requirements.
-
02
Stamped drawings
Engineered and P.Eng.-stamped to OBC 2024 in-house — the set the City of Guelph Building Services needs for the permit.
-
03
In-house fabrication
Cut, welded, and finished at our shop to CWB W47.1 — not white-labelled out. Galvanizing or shop primer as the environment calls for.
-
04
Install or supply
On most Guelph projects we install with our own crew; for supply-only orders we ship contractor-ready with erection drawings and modular detailing.
See the full engineering & install process for how each stage is controlled.
Span Line Systems is the industrial mezzanine and stair division of Art Metal Canada. Drawings are stamped by a PEO-licensed P.Eng. on staff; welding is done to CWB W47.1 and CSA W59 by our own certified fabricators. We don't white-label the fabrication or subcontract it out — the shop that draws it builds it.
