The project
The Old Port of Montreal was seeking a metal structure to conceal and secure their waste in a highly tourist-frequented area, particularly near Cirque du Soleil.
The objective was clear: to design a steel enclosure that was both robust to prevent intrusions and aesthetically pleasing to respect the architectural character of the historic Old Port district.
The project in numbers
- 3
- Weeks
Complete fabrication and execution
The result
We designed a galvanized aluminum waste enclosure to ensure maximum resistance to corrosion and extreme weather conditions.
The metal structure was designed to:
- Limit unauthorized access
- Withstand impacts
- Support intensive use
- Reduce the risk of fire spread
Services provided
Shop drawings
Shop drawings allowed us to structure the client’s needs and plan each component of the waste enclosure with precision.
Laser cutting
Laser cutting ensured uniform and identical perforations on the steel sections of the waste enclosure.
MIG welding
MIG welding guaranteed strength, reliability, and rapid assembly for a robust outdoor metal structure.
Partial galvanization
Galvanization protects the steel enclosure against corrosion and extends its outdoor durability.

The detail that makes the difference
Laser cutting of uniform circular perforations at the top of the enclosure allows for controlled ventilation while enhancing its aesthetic appeal and coherence with the heritage sector.
The result: a robust, durable waste enclosure perfectly integrated into the architecture of the Old Port.
