Canton Expands Cab Offerings

New powder-coat colors, specialized cars for transit stations among products now available.

Canton Architectural Products has expanded the powder-coat color offerings for its steel shell cabs. Standard colors were previously limited to black, white and gray, but the company’s standard powder-coating color pallet has been expanded to include a variety of standard colors. Additionally, the company offers premium or custom colors to complement other colors in the building.

Canton also has expanded its capabilities with specialized cabs for public transit applications, such as subways, airports and railway stations, which have high-traffic demands. These cabs feature walls and doors manufactured with clear laminated, tempered safety glass panels for heightened visibility and durability. The cab structure and car top can be fabricated from alloy 316 stainless steel for maximum corrosion resistance. They can also be designed to meet specified weight requirements, or be equipped with air conditioning units for use in warm climates.

The company also offers cab modernization packages, including hang-on wall panels, ceiling and lighting options, and various materials and designs for handrails and bumper rails. Upgraded cabs can enhance the elevator’s appearance, which can leave a lasting impression on users.

Founded in 2004, Canton Architectural Products manufactures and markets all types and configurations of elevator cabs and cab components. Operating under the same roof as Canton Elevator, the company strives for the same high quality and quick turnaround products for the industry. Canton Architectural Products has a growing reputation among elevator contractors who look for superior-quality elevator cabs at competitive prices.

Canton Architectural Products offers a standard line of cabs available with several different designs and finishes. The company builds custom designs based on the customer’s plans and specifications. Stainless steel, bronze, decorative art glass, back-painted glass, wood veneer, custom millwork, marble and granite are among the materials available.
