Industrial mezzanines & steel stairs in Kitchener.
Span Line builds and installs structural mezzanines, work platforms, and steel stairs for Kitchener's manufacturing and distribution base — the Huron Business Park and Bridgeport industrial areas.
In short: We're an Ontario fabricator serving Kitchener with mezzanines, platforms, and stairs, stamped to OBC 2024. Kitchener is about an hour down the 401, within our install range, with shipping for supply-only orders.

For the Huron Business Park and beyond.
Kitchener carries a strong manufacturing and distribution base alongside its well-known tech sector — the Huron Business Park, Bridgeport, and the industrial lands along the Grand River and Highway 8. It runs to fabrication, food, and warehousing, where storage mezzanines, work platforms, and access stairs are routine tools for getting more out of a fixed footprint.
The Waterloo Region market is a natural extension of our work: at about an hour down the 401 it's within a comfortable install range, and modular bolt-together detailing makes supply-only orders straightforward when a local crew handles the set. Everything is stamped to the same OBC 2024 standard as our GTA work.

01
Site measure
A ~30-minute visit to capture column centres, clear heights, and slab condition across Kitchener's mixed industrial stock.
-
02
Stamped drawings
Engineered and P.Eng.-stamped to OBC 2024 in-house — the set the City of Kitchener Building Division 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.

Install or supply
On most Kitchener 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.
