Openings sized for safety
We hold openings tight enough to reject heels, cane tips, and bicycle tires while keeping flow area for drainage, with slots oriented so wheelchair casters track straight across.

Why The Grate Guys
What to expect from ada and heel proof grates
Load-rated to the setting
Each grate is sized for its location, pedestrian sidewalk, transit platform, plaza, or light-vehicle crossing, so it carries real traffic without deflection or frame rattle.
Steel or stainless builds
Galvanized or structural steel works for exterior sidewalks and plazas, while stainless suits salt, corrosion, or frequent wash-down where the finish must stay cleaner longer.
Set flush with the walking surface
We fabricate and install the grate and frame together, bedding or anchoring it to the opening so pavers, concrete, or finished floor meet the edge without a trip lip.
Made in Canada
Why Canadian-made metalwork matters
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.
Custom, local, built to spec
Your ada and heel proof grates is supported by Canadian-made fabrication, Canadian steel, clear local coordination, and a shop team close enough to solve site details before they become delays.
Our Process
How we specify, fabricate, and deliver Ada and Heel Proof Grates
ADA and heel-proof grates are accessibility-compliant gratings with narrow, small openings sized so that heels, cane and walker tips, wheelchair and stroller casters, and bicycle tires can't drop in or catch, fabricated to your exact opening, frame line, and load class. We build them in galvanized or structural steel for sidewalks and plazas, or in stainless for transit platforms and wash-down areas, with the right bar spacing, slot direction, and load rating for the foot and vehicle traffic over them. Made to order in our Toronto shop, with each grate licensed, insured, and WSIB-covered and backed by a workmanship warranty, supplied and installed across the GTA and shipped Canada-wide.
- 01 Send your inquiry, drawings, photos, or a description of what you need.
- 02 We come measure and assess the site (or work from your specs and drawings).
- 03 We fabricate your ada and heel proof grates to spec in our shop, finished for the conditions.
- 04 We return to deliver and install it, set, levelled, and done right on site.
