BusShelters.ca has shipped to Toronto Pearson (YYZ via GTAA), Montréal-Trudeau (YUL via ADM), Vancouver International (YVR), Calgary (YYC), Edmonton (YEG), Ottawa (YOW), Winnipeg (YWG), Halifax Stanfield (YHZ), Quebec City (YQB), Hamilton (YHM), plus several smaller regional airports. We are an approved vendor on the GTAA, ADM, and YVR Authority procurement lists with security clearance for airside-adjacent work.
The shelter spec includes CSA-stamped engineering for snow-clearing-equipment proximity (the structure has to survive a snow-blower throwing wet snow at it from 5 m), 24/7 LED lighting averaging 180–250 lux for security-camera coverage and customer wayfinding, slip-resistant floor pads at the door opening (airport security insists on visible non-slip), and integrated CCTV-mount points at the rear corner for airport-security camera installation by their own crews. Glazing is anti-vandal polycarbonate with sacrificial film, swappable on a tight maintenance schedule.
Lead time is typically 8–14 weeks including security-clearance vetting of installation-crew personnel; some airports require CATSA-screened workers for airside-adjacent installs. We carry $15 million aviation-adjacent liability through Travelers Canada and have WSIB / CNESST clearance in every province where Canadian commercial airports operate.
Maintenance, refresh, and emergency response
Airport shelter maintenance is 24/7 / 365 — there is no after-hours window because the airport never closes. We run airport maintenance contracts under a tier-1 service-level agreement: 2-hour quote turnaround, 8-hour parts-on-site for safety-critical breakage (jagged glass at a passenger-loading curb), and a dedicated airport-services tech roster with active CATSA clearances at YYZ, YUL, and YVR. Annual refresh at airports involves panel cleaning to aviation-grade standards (no streaking under high-intensity terminal lighting), anti-graffiti film replacement on a quarterly cadence (airport graffiti is rare but immediately visible), and lamp and lighting refresh synchronised with terminal-electrical maintenance windows. Pricing is $1,800–$3,500 per shelter per year for airport-grade maintenance contracts, reflecting the security overhead and 24/7 SLA.
