Scarborough properties—whether they’re Lakeshore homes, multi-unit buildings, basement apartments, or commercial facilities—often require safe, code-compliant egress stairs for emergency access. At Art Metal Workshop, we build exterior and interior egress stair systems that meet Ontario Building Code requirements while matching the architectural character of Scarborough’s diverse neighbourhoods.
We fabricate and install egress stairs for:
Basement walkouts
Multi-family and rental units
Side-entry and rear-entry exits
Commercial escape routes
Industrial and warehouse safety access
No matter where you’re located—Guildwood, Birch Cliff, Highland Creek, Malvern, Agincourt, Wexford, Scarborough Village, or Cliffcrest—our team provides dependable service across all Scarborough communities.
Scarborough’s rapidly changing weather—humidity, lake winds, icy winters, and heavy rainfall—makes it essential to choose egress stairs built to withstand year-round exposure. We design our systems for structural strength, long-term durability, and safety compliance.
Our egress stairs feature:
Reinforced steel construction for maximum stability
Hot-dip galvanizing or powder-coating to prevent rust
Slip-resistant treads ideal for wet or icy conditions
Proper rise, run, handrail, and landing design per OBC
Lifetime warranty on materials & installation
