As Americans celebrated Independence Day this month, many of us reflected on the privileges and joys of American life.  Freedom of expression and property rights are among those privileges. At Double R Manufacturing, we believe American-made products are also something to celebrate this month and throughout the year.

Positive Contributions of U.S. Manufacturing in 2020

U.S. manufacturers employ millions of workers, bringing in billions of dollars for our annual economy.  There is no denying the manufacturing sector serves as a major contributor to the stability of our free society.

During the coronavirus pandemic, companies nationwide shifted gears to manufacturer and locally deliver in-demand items, such as personal protective equipment (PPE). This included alcohol distilleries brewing hand sanitizer, small clothing designers making protective facemasks, and major carmakers building ventilators.

Across our state of Florida, manufacturers began transforming raw materials into essential products.  Double R Manufacturing also stepped up to meet our customer’s changing needs, including banners and custom signage to convey new information or to comply with distancing guidelines. Pivoting to serve neighbors and business communities is a specialty of American manufacturers, dating back hundreds of years to times of war and times of change.

Top-Quality Materials and American Artisanship

Whether we work with an individual homeowner or a large corporation, one piece or thousands, our goal is to surpass each customer’s expectations with durable materials and fine craftsmanship.

With full-scale operations based in Ocala, Florida, Double R Manufacturing is proud to design and fabricate a wide array of customized signage, property markers, gates, entrances, railings, banisters, stairways, landings, equine equipment, barn and stall equipment, custom barbeques, bars, tables, benches, wall art, and much more.

At Double R Manufacturing, each piece undergoes a design process of meticulous bending, cutting, and assembling to ensure the delivery of only the strongest specialty pieces for businesses and residential customers.

From sandblasting and water jet cutting, to custom fabrication and final powder coating, Double R’s specialists use top-quality materials to provide the highest standard in finished products.  Steel, durable aluminum, beautiful wood, artistic features, ornamental finials, graphics, monogramming, and thousands of powder-coating colors offer the freedom for customers to bring their American dreams to life.

As an equestrian performance sport, horseracing dates back to the 1600s.  Each big race takes just one day to complete, but caring for horses and other farm animals takes year-round hard work.  The team at Double R Manufacturing understands this and designs farm equipment and barn accessories to make that job easier.

  • Durable Designs that Last: Double R’s custom designs are superior to competitor products, which can be prone to unsightly chipping, flimsiness, and ill-fitting parts due to less-skilled manufacturing practices. From sandblasting and water jet cutting, to custom fabrication and rust-inhibiting powder coatings, Double R’s experienced manufacturers ensure each product design will endure the rigorous nature of equine settings.
  • Highest Quality Fabrication: Double R offers fully welded stall doors made of high quality steel, stainless steel, and aluminum.

Powder Coating Double R Manufacturing

 

Many people are dreaming of a coating of white snow for the holidays, but the Florida team at Double R Manufacturing is busy making customers’ dreams come true with customized powder coatings for products that are ready-to-ship nationwide this season.

Limitless Powder Coating Colors and Finishes
From finishes that are black and sleek to bronze or antique, durable powder coatings are now available in a huge selection of finishes and thousands of colors for metal equipment and products around your home, farm, or business.

Whether you need manufactured products that are a rustic red for the holiday season or shiny silver for modern sophistication, Double R’s experts can provide an array of powder coating options for your gates, doors, stairs, railings, signage, shutters, grills, tables, bars, benches, farm accessories, breeding stalls, and countless other manufactured products and equipment.

Imagine the possibilities with standard color wheel hues, pastels, translucent, metal flake, candies, hammertones, clear shades, or two-step overlay.

Benefits of Powder Coating by Double R Manufacturing
As detailed in Double R’s powder coating section of the website (See Gallery), powder coating is a type of coating that is applied as a free-flowing, dry powder. In contrast to conventional liquid paint, powder coating does not require a solvent to keep the binder and filler parts in a liquid suspension form.

Less-equipped suppliers in the manufacturing industry do not have Double R’s years of experience, and most do not have specialized facilities to handle the big projects. Double R has a 12 x 12 x 21 foot booth to get powder-coating jobs done onsite and on time.

Built-to-Last, Low-Maintenance Metal Equipment
Double R’s custom fabrication and professional techniques help provide corrosion protection, which also helps prevent unsightly effects of chipping.  When perfectly applied by a professional, powder coatings can create sealed, weatherproof, and rust-inhibiting surfaces.

Uniquely, Double R’s skilled engineers specialize in powder-coated aluminum railing systems, which are widely popular due to durability.

Additionally, residential and business entrance gates are incredibly popular among customers throughout Florida and the Southeastern U.S. Gates and entrances offer visitors the first glimpse of your property. Customers love to enhance the beauty of entrance gates with curved accents, monograms, and customized powder coatings and finishes designed by the fabrication experts at Double R Manufacturing in Ocala, Florida.
