Supplying Ottawa builders from our Toronto plant
Made in Toronto. Built for Ottawa.
Ottawa builds differently than the GTA. Federal and institutional work drives steady demand for non-combustible partition framing, while intensification across Kanata, Barrhaven and Orléans keeps mid-rise and infill moving year-round.
Your order is handled by the team that rolls it. The gauge, length and profile you specify are what gets rolled, and the person who confirms your order is the person who can answer a technical question about it.
We ship scheduled loads to Ottawa and the wider Eastern Ontario corridor from our facility on Millwick Drive.

Jobsite delivery
Direct to sites across Kanata, Nepean, Barrhaven, Orléans, Gloucester, Vanier and the downtown core. Tell us the access conditions when you order. Tight downtown sites, restricted windows and boom requirements get scheduled in advance rather than discovered on the day.
Pickup
Will-call pickup
If your crew or hauler is coming through the GTA, orders can be picked up at 40 Millwick Drive, Unit 4, Toronto. Pickup orders are staged and ready on confirmation, so your driver is not waiting on the yard.
Pricing in Ottawa
Why Ottawa buys from Saturn.
Competitive pricing on every order, rolled, cut and shipped from one plant without extra handling along the way.
Competitive pricing
Sharp pricing on every skid, quoted by the people who roll the steel.
A scheduled Ottawa run
Your order rides a planned route, not a one-off freight booking arranged after the fact.
Boom truck placement
Material set where the crew needs it, which matters on tight Centretown and infill sites.
Cut to length, not on site
Studs and tracks arrive at the dimension on your schedule, so crews install instead of cut.
Talk to the plant
Gauge and spacing questions answered by the people rolling the steel, before you order.
All orders feature CSSBI certification, strict quality inspections, and guaranteed written lead times for reliable scheduling.
Custom gauges and cut-to-length orders
Cut to your lengths.
Custom fabrication is not a special request here. It is how we run.
We produce studs, tracks, furring bars and trims in custom lengths, gauges and profiles to match your drawings.
Cut-to-length matters more at distance. Every metre of stud that arrives in Ottawa already cut to the specified length is a metre your crew does not cut on site, and a piece of offcut you do not pay to haul away. On a project 450 km from the plant, that shows up in both labour hours and waste disposal.
Lengths: Cut to the exact dimension on your schedule.
Gauges: 25 through 20, plus custom thickness on request.
Widths and legs: Web and flange sized to the assembly.
Profiles: Custom shapes rolled from your section detail.
Code compliance and certification
Certified to spec.
Ottawa projects answer to the Ontario Building Code and, on federal and institutional work, to additional specification requirements.
CSSBI product certified: Manufactured to recognised cold-formed steel standards.
Well Made Here member: Canadian manufacturing, verified.
Consistent gauge and coating: with documented quality inspection on every run.
Specification sheets: available for submittal packages.

Ottawa steel framing FAQ
Common questions.
Lead times, minimums, gauges and permits, answered for Ottawa specifically.
Yes. We ship from our Toronto plant to jobsites across Ottawa, including Kanata, Nepean, Barrhaven, Orléans, Gloucester and the downtown core, as well as the wider Eastern Ontario corridor.
Standard stock orders are delivered to your Ottawa site within 1 to 3 business days, and custom gauge or length orders ship within 7 to 10 business days. Your quote confirms the delivery date.
Our minimum order value is $1,000 CAD. Above that, we deliver any quantity to your Ottawa site, from a few bundles to a full truck. Orders can also be picked up at our Toronto facility at 40 Millwick Drive.
We produce studs from 25 gauge for lightweight interior partitions through 20 gauge for structural applications, in a range of web widths and flange sizes. Custom gauges are available on request.
Yes. Custom fabrication and precision cutting to your exact specifications is a standard service. On out-of-town projects it is usually worth doing, since it reduces on-site cutting labour and offcut waste.
Our products are CSSBI product certified and manufactured to recognised cold-formed steel standards. Product documentation is available for permit submittals and specification review.
In most cases yes. New construction, structural alterations and most commercial interior build-outs require a permit from the City of Ottawa before framing begins. We supply the product documentation your submittal package needs, but the permit itself is handled by your GC or owner.
