A steel component that doesn’t always get the spotlight — lintels!

They may be a relatively small part of a building, but they play an important role in the overall performance of the structure.

Steel lintels, like the ones pictured, are commonly used in masonry construction to support the block or brick above openings such as doors, windows, louvers and mechanical openings.

Depending on the span, loading and design requirements, lintels can be fabricated from steel angles, channels, plates or wide-flange sections.

It’s another great example of how even the smaller pieces of structural steel play a critical role in bringing a building together.

Small component. Big responsibility

Built on steel. Driven by people. Focused on the future.

Since 2012, JCT Metals has been pushing forward in Ontario’s structural steel industry — growing our capabilities, challenging ourselves to improve, and never settling for where we are today.

What started with a vision has grown into something we’re incredibly proud of.

Our progress has been built around a strong culture and the values that guide us every day: Respect. Integrity. Collaboration. Communication.

2026 has brought challenges across the construction and steel industries, but our direction hasn’t changed.

We’re continuing to invest.

In our JCT family.
In our equipment.
In our facility.
In our capacity.
And most importantly, in our future.

We’re building JCT Metals to be stronger, more capable, and ready to take on the projects that will help shape the communities around us for generations to come.

🇨🇦 Proudly building Canada’s future with steel.

New Project Alert!!! 🚨

Officially awarded a few months ago, the team has been putting in the time to make this one come to life. Today was the first day on site, unloading the first wave of steel ready for er****on.

We’re excited to officially get underway on Sargent Farms — a 160,000 sq. ft. facility featuring approximately 550 tons of structural steel and 545 tons of joist and deck.

There’s a lot that happens behind the scenes before the first piece of steel ever arrives on site. From estimating and engineering coordination, through detailing, procurement and fabrication, our team has been working hard to get this project to the starting line.

Now the fun part begins.

We’re looking forward to watching this one take shape over the coming months and sharing the progress along the way.

A big thank you to everyone involved in getting us to this point. 💪

1,095 tons of steel. 160,000 sq. ft. One exciting project ahead.

Back in 2021, we had the pleasure of providing our structural steel services for the Crop Services Building at the University of Guelph’s Ridgetown Campus.

We are proud to have contributed our expertise to this project and to have worked alongside the teams involved in bringing the building to life. It remains a strong example of the quality, precision, and collaboration we bring to every project.
