United Edge Structural Components - The Place for Builders

RIDEAU LAKES - Get ready to fulfil your building needs with United Edge Structural Components.

The highest-quality structural components from United Edge "Truss and Floor Division" and P3 Panels "Wood Framed Walls Division" translate into more on-site accuracy in your build for higher job efficiency and less waste. Smaller framing crews can do bigger jobs in less time.

"We're here to put the roofs over your heads and the floors under your feet," says President Stefano Ferrente, adding the company uses the latest, state-of-the-art technology to in-house design and manufacture its products right in Leeds Grenville.

"There's no job too big or too small," says Stefano, himself a developer who understands industry needs. "We're happy to work with developers, general contractors or someone building their dream home."

The United Edge Structural Components team designs, manufactures and distributes structural components, including roof trusses, floor systems, wall panels, LVL beams, sheathing, I-joists, connectors and related hardware. They can provide complete component packages for your build.

"We want to build a better product. We buy better wood and we offer more complete truss, floor and wall packages than our competitors," says Stefano.

"When we design and manufacture a wall panel, we know every stick of wood that goes into it so lumber take offs are always accurate," he says, adding laser equipment pinpoints where every piece of wood should be placed.

United Edge Structural Components and P3 Panel Company (Perfect Precision Panels) operate in a new 30,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility. Stefano and partners bought the existing wall panel company in 2018 and soon launched United Edge in 2020 at its new Rideau Lakes location and "under the same roof."

"The growth has been incredible since that time," Stefano says, adding many P3 Panel customers were asking for packages that included additional components. The two businesses work well together.

"It was just an idea in 2019 and now it's growing. The municipality was good to work with. It's such an exciting thing to be doing right now because of the demand for housing," says Stefano.

"Most lumber companies are just trying to sell you wood at the best price, but we are focused on the customer experience," says P3 Panels President and United Edge General Manager Dylan Sliter. "By offering a full supply and installation package, we are intending to add value to our customers - and customer satisfaction is very important to us."
