Default Meat cooler supplies

I’m looking to build a walk in meat cooler in my shop. I have everything sourced and ordered, except for the rail, hangers and trolly setup. Where is everyone finding this stuff local to Alberta, or Canada?

McKinley and Taylor in Edmonton makes commercial walk in coolers and such. I'm pretty sure they do custom fab of parts as well. Would probably be pretty pricey compared to an off the shelf product but might be worth looking into?

Halford hide in Edmonton sells rollers and rail, as does Butcher and Packer Supplies.

Dale, what I did for a rail was take 3/8”x1 1/2” flat bar bought at the the local steel supply. I built my brackets out of 1 1/2” angle iron. A 12” pipe flange makes a nice jig for putting the bend in the flat bar for going around the corners in your cooler. A rail switch is easily made with a little ingenuity. For the rollers I’d contact halford hide or Acheson refrigerator (Dawson creek). They might have used ones.

I’m curious to what you’re using for a cooler compressor? I bought mine at Acheson but I’ve heard that a cooler compressor out of a pop can dispenser works well.
