About Delta

The Delta Waterloo hotel is now open at the Barrel Yards development in Uptown. It is the only four-star, full-service hotel in the marketplace and is ideally located close to the city’s two universities, hundreds of high tech companies, and internationally recognized public institutes. The hotel is also next to one of the future Ion LRT stops that will provide a connection to the Regional transportation corridor.

Inside the facility are three Delta Elevator MRL units, custom-designed to blend with the high-quality, premiere service approach of the Delta Hotel chain.

The Delta Waterloo hotel is one phase of the Barrel Yards block currently under construction by Auburn Developments, which also includes four high-rise condominium buildings (The Cooperage) with views overlooking Silver Lake in Waterloo Park.

Delta Elevator is pleased to be working with Chestnut Hill Homes and Quadrangle Architects for the supply of elevators at the Life Condominiums in Toronto.

This prestigious development is located at Yonge and Merton in the quiet and safe midtown area. The 13-storey midrise architectural gem has 149 urban suites, comprising studio, one, two, and three bedroom designs.

Delta Elevator worked with Graham Infrastructure to supply the 910 kg capacity elevators for the re-development of the CN Tower plaza. The two units were installed in 2013 as part of the re-vitalization of the entrance to Toronto’s iconic landmark tower.

From inside, the glass cabs provide a scenic overview of the courtyard. From outside, the glass shafts provide an excellent insight into the mechanical workings of a hydraulic elevator. Check them out next time you are visiting downtown Toronto!

The Technical Standards & Safety Authority (TSSA) recently released the updated Code Adoption Document (CAD) Amendment 261/13-r1 effective September 15, 2013. The CAD includes revised compliance dates for Car Top Railings and Maintenance Control Programs pertaining to elevating devices in Ontario.

Car Top Railings must now be completed by May 1, 2014. These important features are required by the TSSA to ensure the safety of Mechanics and Inspectors while working on the top of elevators meeting certain criteria.

Maintenance Control Programs (MCPs) must now be in place for existing elevating devices by March 31, 2014. These control documents have been mandated by the TSSA to ensure that every elevator in Ontario has a documented procedure for ensuring its safe operation.

For more information, please see the TSSA website at http://www.tssa.org.
