Along with windowsills, Sanderson Concrete produces a wide range of precast concrete lintels for commercial, institutional and multi-family residential properties. Precast concrete lintels can be cast for virtually any length opening from small doors and windows to large openings for firetrucks and commercial vehicles.
Smaller lintels are typically cast as a masonry type unit and fastened to the building with brick ties or pins. Larger lintels can be cast with ledger angles attached or weld plates for attaching to the underlying structure.
Sanderson Concrete has cast lintels in many shapes and sizes, with our largest monolithic lintel to date being over 27′ long. Working with the architects, our custom team and engineers can provide your project with the lintels required that seamlessly fit with the design of your building.
Because concrete is a liquid, the face of a lintel can include virtually any detail from a simple smooth face to the look of hand-carved limestone. The only limitations on size and length are the support of the lintel on the building and trucking to site – so where a 20′ long lintel that is only 3″ thick will have to be cast in sections, we cast 5″ lintels at 14′ long regularly.
Whether you need small sections or a large cantilevered lintel with no mortar joints over a series of windows and doors, feel free to contact us with your requirements. Our experienced custom precast team will work with you to achieve your vision.
Western Canada’s Largest Sill & Lintel Manufacturer
Producing thousands of windows sills annually, Sanderson Concrete is Western Canada’s largest manufacturer of precast concrete window sills and architectural trim.
Sills, lintels, wall coping and post caps are a large part of our daily production. From simple grey sloped sills to tapered sills with upstands, end dams – or shoulders – we have been making windowsills and lintels for over 30 years and have produced architectural precast elements for buildings across North America.
Wood, Steel, and Rubber Forms
Our three in-house mould shops ensure our architectural and masonry clients exacting details in our formwork – and everything starts with formwork. From simple straight forms to intricate curves and end dams – our window sills are the first choice for masons who know that quality is an important reflection on the masons own work. Like a good trowel – good precast pays for itself.
