Ontario Khalsa Darbar
Project Overview
Ontario Khalsa Darbar, also known as Dixie Gurdwara, is one of the largest and most prominent Sikh temples in Canada, serving thousands of congregants weekly.

Our work has included significant interior and exterior renovations to enhance functionality, capacity, and aesthetics while preserving the spiritual and cultural essence of the facility.
Key renovations have involved upgrades to the langar (community kitchen and dining) hall, creation of new prayer rooms, and exterior expansions to better serve the growing community. FCC Builders Canada continues to collaborate with the temple on an ongoing basis, providing construction, renovation, and maintenance services to support the evolving needs of this important religious and cultural landmark.
