At Danto Builders, we handle every step of your commercial project, from initial design concepts through final construction, because we believe a well‑coordinated process delivers better results. Whether building a new restaurant, office space, retail store, medical clinic, lab facility, multifamily property or industrial warehouse, our integrated team makes safety the foundation of every decision and every workday.
Tackling the “Focus Four” Hazards
In a OSHA “Focus Four” training session, our project managers, estimators, office personnel, field supervisors, and executive team increased their awareness and the great caution needed for the four hazards that cause about 60% of construction incidents:
- Falls –proper harness inspections and anchor‑point setups.
- Struck‑by Incidents –exclusion‑zone drills around forklifts and material lifts, critical for busy construction sites
- Caught‑in/‑Between Incidents –trench‑shoring for utility lines and machine‑guard checks on bulky medical‑ and restaurant-equipment installs
- Electric Shock –lockout/tagout procedures and GFCI deployments when wiring
This training is then taken to the field on real‑site scenarios, from a tight back‑of‑house corridor in a restaurant or the humid conditions of an outdoor canopy install, we keep our crew prepared for the challenges unique to South Florida.
Safety Woven into Design‑Build
Safety at Danto Builders is integrated into every phase of our design‑build process:
- Design Stage
- We identify potential Focus Four risks on paper, so your guardrail specifications, equipment selections, and electrical layouts all account for safe access and operation.
- Pre‑Construction Planning
- Our safety specialists collaborate with architects and engineers to include hazard controls in both the project schedule and the budget, ensuring transparency from day one.
- Daily Job‑Site Routine
- Morning walk‑throughs flag site‑specific concerns, like South Florida’s afternoon rains or narrow delivery zones in urban retail districts and set clear safety priorities for the day.
- Ongoing Training & Debriefs
- Toolbox talks and morning safety training keep safety top of mind. We address situations immediately and share lessons learned across all crews.
The Impact for Your Project

- Steady Progress – Fewer incidents mean fewer work stoppages and a more predictable timeline.
