Contact UsConstruction & Trades: Ladder and Pipe Racks That Work as Hard as You Do
Construction crews and general contractors need versatile solutions to carry ladders, conduit, piping, and lumber. Our custom ladder racks and pipe racks are fabricated from high-strength aluminum and engineered for stability on the road and at the job site. Every weld is handled in-house, ensuring your rack is rust-resistant and made to handle Alberta’s toughest days.
Plumbing & HVAC: Customized Racks for Precision Tools and Pipe Transport
For plumbing and HVAC professionals, accessible and secure storage is essential. We recommend plumbing racks that support pipe transport and protect sensitive fittings or tools. Whether you’re retrofitting a van or need a multi-level rack for a truck canopy, we offer fully integrated custom solutions that improve workflow and reduce time spent searching for tools.
Electrical Contractors: Modular Ladder Racks with Custom Mounting Options
Electricians often require multi-function ladder racks that integrate tool storage, coils of wire, safety lighting, and secure strapping systems. At CACF, we tailor each build with custom mounts, lockable crossbars, and weather-resistant finishes, so your equipment is protected no matter the conditions. Our racks can be combined with toolboxes, interior shelving, or service bodies for a full-service upfit.
Oilfield & Industrial: Heavy-Duty Racks for Specialized Equipment
The oil and gas sector demands ultra-durable solutions that can withstand long distances, rough terrain, and heavy loads. Our industrial-grade aluminum racks can be fabricated to carry oversized gear, rig tools, or support light bar systems for remote locations. Combined with our custom headache racks and fuel tank/toolbox combos, these racks elevate both functionality and safety for field crews.
Transportation & Delivery: Lightweight Solutions to Maximize Payload
Delivery and logistics vehicles need to prioritize weight and aerodynamics. Lightweight aluminum roof racks and cargo carriers can be fabricated to reduce drag and add minimal weight to the vehicle while providing reliable tie-down options for parcel bins or equipment cases. We also offer options for aerodynamic fairings and removable crossbars for flexible use.

Pre-made racks rarely fit your vehicle, and they certainly won’t fit your specific job. A custom rack from Calgary Aluminum means:
- Vehicle-specific fitment with no wasted space or awkward overhangs.
- Industry-specific functionality, designed around the tools you use every day.
- Durability that lasts. No rust, warping, or structural failures.
- Fully integrated options, including lighting, storage compartments, and safety accessories.
Each rack is built at our 12,000 sq. ft. Calgary facility using premium aluminum, advanced fabrication technology, and over 20 years of local industry experience.
