Calgary Zoo's new $11.5M Polar Bear Sanctuary offers rescued polar bears two acres of grassy meadows, rocky terrain, and breathtaking horizon views. RW Hardware played a key role in bringing it to life. In partnership with Dura Stainless Sheet Metal Fabrication, we provided 24 stainless steel remote crank arm gate operators. These allow staff to safely raise and lower gates, protect the animals, and maintain durable, weather-resistant hardware that's easy to clean and looks great too. We're proud to support safer, more immersive experiences for animals, staff, and visitors alike.
