For GCs, developers and building-product distributors
Your gear lands months before the building can take it.
100,000 sq ft in southeast Calgary for the long-lead product a project orders early and cannot install yet — elevators, appliances, HVAC, flooring, tile, fixtures, fencing — held dry and damage-free until the site calls it in.
Does Rolls Right warehouse construction and building products in Calgary?
Yes. Rolls Right's Calgary warehouse at 4770 68 Avenue SE stages construction and building products: 100,000 sq ft with 28-foot clear height, ESFR sprinkler protection rated for high-pile commodity storage, a 47 by 35 foot column grid and 12 dock doors. It already holds this class of product — elevators, transformers, appliances and fencing are existing Rolls Right warehouse accounts. It suits long-lead fit-out gear staged ahead of installation, and Rolls Right runs its own flat deck and power-tailgate equipment for deliveries to sites without a loading dock. Dangerous goods are assessed case by case against the SDS.

The problem
What usually goes wrong.
The gear arrives on the manufacturer's schedule, not the site's. Elevators, appliances, HVAC units, flooring, tile, fixtures and fencing get ordered early on a long lead, land months before the floor is ready to receive them, and then have to sit somewhere dry, secure and undamaged until the superintendent calls them in — often unit by unit.
Against a project budget, warehousing that gear is a rounding error. What actually costs money is a damaged shipment, a delivery that cannot get onto a congested site, or a crew standing idle because the units are on the wrong side of the city. So the questions worth asking are about dock speed, damage rate and whether the delivery can be sequenced — not about the storage rate.
This is not a new product class for us. It is a large part of what already sits in our buildings, and the Calgary floor was chosen for it: 28-foot clear with ESFR throughout is what lets a building stack dense, heavy product high rather than charging you for floor area.
Capabilities
What we run for construction
- Staging for long-lead fit-out product: elevators, appliances, HVAC, flooring, tile, fixtures, fencing
- 28 ft clear height with ESFR protection, rated for high-pile commodity storage
- 47 ft × 35 ft column grid, so wide bays and fewer obstructions for long product
- Release to site in sequence — by floor, by unit, or on the superintendent's call
- Flat deck and power-tailgate equipment for deliveries to sites with no dock
- Container de-stuffing and drayage for imported fixtures and fittings
- Short-term transient space for project peaks, on terms measured in months
What we'll actually claim
No borrowed credibility.
We won't name a developer we don't have. What we will say is that this product class is already in our buildings — elevators, transformers, appliances and fencing are live warehouse accounts, held for exactly this kind of staged release. Beyond that, the argument is the building itself: the clear height, the ESFR rating and the column grid are measurable, they are on this page, and you are welcome to walk the floor before you sign anything.
Before you call
Where we're not the right fit.
Two limits worth knowing before you call. Dangerous goods are case by case — send the class and the SDS and we will give you a straight yes or no rather than a guess. And there is no rail siding here; if your inbound arrives by rail we run drayage and transload off the CN and CP ramps daily on our own chassis, so it still reaches this floor.

FAQ
Questions we get asked
Can you release to site in sequence rather than all at once?
Yes, and that is usually the point. Product comes in on the manufacturer's schedule and goes out on yours — by floor, by unit, or on the superintendent's call. Tell us how the install is phased and we will hold it that way rather than making you take the whole order at once.
What does 28-foot clear and ESFR actually get me?
Height you can use. Early Suppression Fast Response sprinklers let a building store commodity higher than a standard system allows, so more of your product fits in the same footprint, and we can take commodity classes a non-ESFR building has to refuse. If you have been quoted on floor space when what you needed was cube, this is where the money is.
Can you handle seasonal swings?
That is the normal pattern here. Short-term transient space covers peaks and project work, and terms are measured in months rather than a five-year lease, so you are not paying through the winter for space you needed in June.
Can you deliver to a job site with no dock?
Yes. We run flat deck and power-tailgate equipment on our own fleet for exactly that. Tell us the site constraints and we will confirm the equipment before we quote.
Will you take dangerous goods — adhesives, sealants, coatings?
Case by case. Send us the class and the SDS and we will come back with a yes or a no. We will not guess, because guessing wrong on a commodity class is how a building gets into trouble.
Is the building rail-served?
No siding, and it does not stop rail freight reaching us. We run drayage and transload off the CN and CP ramps daily on our own chassis, so product moving by rail still lands on this floor.
How much space is available?
More than we are currently using, in a building that runs to 100,000 sq ft. Tell us the footprint or the pallet count and we will tell you straight away whether it is there. Southeast Calgary industrial vacancy is around two percent with no new speculative supply until 2027, so the real question is usually whether anyone has room at all.
