Dunnage Steel is fabricated structural framing that elevates rooftop or floor-mounted mechanical equipment. In Chatham, The Grate Guys makes dunnage steel to spec: measured, built, and finished for the real conditions.
In Chatham, dunnage steel is typically needed for rooftop units, chillers, and mechanical platforms. Across Chatham, it solves elevated structural support for mechanical equipment above decks, and because no two sites are identical the scope is set per site, not a default.
Demand for dunnage steel in Chatham (Municipality of Chatham-Kent) comes mostly from automotive components (Dana, Continental Powertrain), agriculture and seed biotech (Corteva/Pioneer), ethanol and grain processing (GreenField/Commercial Alcohols), agricultural equipment manufacturing, food processing, natural gas utility (Enbridge Gas). Activity clusters in Bloomfield Road industrial area, Richmond Street / Keil Drive corridor, Chatham Airport Industrial Park, Tilbury industrial zone. Much of the demand tracks Chatham's industrial corridors near operations like Dana Canada, Continental Powertrain Canada, Corteva Agriscience, GreenField Specialty Alcohols, Enbridge Gas, Lambton Conveyor, Rodger Industries — heavy commercial and institutional sites, no two with the same spec.
The mix in Chatham — automotive components (Dana, Continental Powertrain), agriculture and seed biotech (Corteva/Pioneer), ethanol and grain processing (GreenField/Commercial Alcohols), agricultural equipment manufacturing, food processing, natural gas utility (Enbridge Gas) — means each dunnage steel order starts from the specific structure, not a template, when The Grate Guys scopes it.
Chatham pairs an automotive base around Dana and Continental with one of Canada's largest ethanol plants and the Corteva seed-biotech headquarters. The grain, conveyor and agricultural-equipment economy here demands galvanized grating, heavy silo and elevator framing, and corrosion-resistant structural steel built for dusty, wet processing settings. The Grate Guys factors that into every Chatham order — the assessment, the equipment, and the restoration plan all start from how Chatham buildings actually fail.
The Chatham variables that matter are corrosion-resistant steel for grain and ethanol handling, heavy structural framing for elevators and silos, ag-equipment weldments and conveyor structures, galvanized grating for wet processing environments. So The Grate Guys matches the gauge, material, and finish to the site, and a Chatham order rarely needs the same approach as a standard property.
The Grate Guys keeps Chatham dunnage steel moving — roughly 5-10 business days from quote to delivery, built to spec and delivers and installs it on site.
The Grate Guys works each Chatham job methodically — measure the site, fabricate to the drawing, finish, and verify on install — no guesswork.
