A specialized Calgary supplier to the global drilling markets of PDC drill bits selected Spacemakers to construct their new development. Spacemakers helped Pop select and secure a site in Eastlake Industrial Park, SE Calgary. Spacemakers worked with Pop to define their short and long term requirements resulting in the design and construction of their shop and office areas.

The site was selected for long term plans of Pop and includes a good sized yard and additional space for future development and building addition.

Superior Cabinets selected Spacemakers as their Design Builder to develop a new built to suit facility in SE Calgary.

A challenge with the location of a high power distribution pole, anchors and easement had a significant impact on the site layout, building size and truck marshaling area. Spacemakers worked with the utility company to surrender the easement resolving the conflicts for the client, maximizing site and facility efficiency and creating additional distinct value for Superior Cabinets.

Superior Cabinets were thrilled with their new Calgary Facility and engaged Spacemakers to deliver the same results for their Edmonton location. The Edmonton location leveraged the design of the Calgary facility and was deployed to construct the Edmonton development with the same outstanding results.
