Industrial mezzanines & steel stairs in Vaughan.
Span Line engineers and installs structural mezzanines, pick decks, and steel stairs for Vaughan's distribution and e-commerce sector — Concord, Woodbridge, and the Vaughan Enterprise Zone around the 400, 407, and 427.
In short: We're an Ontario fabricator building mezzanines, pick platforms, and stairs for Vaughan's distribution and e-commerce operations. The shop is ~25 minutes away via the 427 and 407, so Concord, Woodbridge, and Enterprise Zone sites get quick measures and installs, stamped to OBC 2024.

For the Enterprise Zone.
Vaughan runs on movement — Concord and Woodbridge industrial, the Vaughan Enterprise Zone, and the freight funnel around CN's MacMillan Yard, all fed by the 400, 407, and 427. It's distribution, e-commerce fulfillment, and building-materials country, where recovering deck space and adding pick capacity is a constant pressure against a fixed building footprint.
That's the sweet spot for a pick mezzanine or a storage deck with a pallet drop — get the picking up off the floor, keep the takeaway moving. From Etobicoke a Vaughan site is a short run up the 427, so measures and installs schedule fast, and we sequence around the peak-season windows that fulfillment operations live by.
Steel that solves a floor problem.
Storage mezzanines
Recover cube over racking or open floor — 125–500 psf decks for pallet and case storage.
Work platforms
Pick modules, pack-out decks, and value-add stations with conveyor pass-throughs.
Equipment platforms
Elevated support for HVAC, process equipment, and conveyor drives.
Egress & access stairs
Code-required exit stairs and mezzanine access towers to OBC §3.4.6.
Guardrails & handrails
42" industrial guarding, mezzanine edge protection, and pallet-drop gates.
Catwalks & access
Service walkways and crossovers over lines and equipment.
A 4,200 sqft e-comm pick deck.
For a Vaughan e-commerce operation we built a 4,200 sqft pick mezzanine with a bar-grate deck and a counter-balanced pallet drop — picking lifted off the floor, replenishment flowing through the drop, all sequenced around the run-up to peak. Pick decks are about flow as much as structure: the deck elevation, the drop location, and the stair placement all follow how product actually moves.

01
Site measure
A ~30-minute visit to capture column centres, clear heights, and — for a pick deck — how product and people actually flow. Quick to schedule from Etobicoke.
-
02
Stamped drawings
Engineered and P.Eng.-stamped to OBC 2024 in-house — the set the City of Vaughan Building Standards Department 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 on your window
Sequenced around your operation — often the shoulder before a peak season — and installed by our own crew across Concord, Woodbridge, and the Enterprise Zone.

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.
