Frequently asked questions

Which commercial project types does Casson Hardware specify for?

Casson Hardware specifies for four primary commercial project types: healthcare (hospitals, clinics, long-term care), hospitality (hotels, restaurants, spas), public and institutional (transit, government, museums, civic), and education (schools, universities, libraries).

How does specification differ across healthcare, hospitality, public, and education projects?

Healthcare prioritizes hygiene, accessibility, and antimicrobial performance. Hospitality balances durability with elevated finishes for guest-facing spaces. Public and institutional emphasize vandal resistance and high-cycle reliability. Education prioritizes hard-wearing, low-maintenance solutions for intensive daily use.

What brands does Casson Hardware carry for each project type?

Casson Hardware draws from CBH, d line, Dan Dryer, FritsJurgens, HEWI, ASI, Sugatsune, Bocci, Audo Copenhagen, Formani, and Simonswerk's TECTUS for commercial projects. Specific brand selection varies by project type and is supported by the specification team.

Are these products code-compliant?

Casson Hardware sources commercial hardware from manufacturers whose products meet international architectural standards. Specific code compliance — ADA, OBC, CSA, fire-rating, and other criteria — should be confirmed against the project's governing code on each product page or with the specification team.

Does Casson Hardware ship commercial hardware across Canada?

Yes. Casson Hardware ships the full commercial catalog to all Canadian provinces and territories from our Toronto warehouse with duty-paid delivery, with shipping to the United States also available.
