BlastOne Truck Bodies
Commercial truck bodies and body assemblies need preparation spaces sized around length, height, door swing and the path into paint or coating. Double D Mechanical installs, relocates and services BlastOne blast rooms, abrasive blast booths, media recovery systems, exhaust ductwork, make-up air and utility connections for truck body finishing operations.

Body Envelope And Entry Path
Truck body finishing requires enough clearance for the body shell, carts, stands, open doors and operator movement. The blast room or booth should align with how bodies enter the bay and move toward prep, paint or inspection. Door height, floor slope, crane coverage and forklift lanes all affect the final equipment position.
Surface Preparation Before Paint
BlastOne blast equipment may support cleaning of frames, panels, bodies, brackets or repair areas before coating. The layout should contain abrasive while allowing workers to reach tall sidewalls, underbody areas and recessed corners. Media recovery and dust collection should be arranged so cleanup does not spill into the paint path.
Airflow Across A Vehicle-Scale Cell
Truck body work can combine blast rooms, prep stations, paint booths, mix rooms and exhaust systems in a limited footprint. Make-up air, exhaust discharge, duct routing and building pressure should be reviewed together. Electrical, compressed air, lighting and controls need clear service access without blocking vehicle movement.
Relocation Or Retrofit Readiness
For relocation or retrofit work, gather existing equipment drawings, room dimensions, collector information, duct routes, utility data and the proposed vehicle flow. Double D Mechanical can review how the equipment will fit, where trades need to sequence work and what clearances should remain open for maintenance.
Frequently asked questions
What truck body dimensions should be gathered first?
Overall length, width, height, door swing, cart height, lift points and the clearance needed around operators and stands should be gathered early.
How does blasting fit with paint booth planning?
The blast area should feed prep and paint without sending cleaned bodies through dirty traffic. Exhaust and make-up air should be coordinated across the whole finishing area.
What service areas should remain accessible?
Collectors, filters, reclaim equipment, lights, doors, control panels, air drops and exhaust connections should remain reachable during normal production.
Can an existing BlastOne room be moved to a new bay?
It can be evaluated by checking room condition, dimensions, recovery components, collector location, duct routing, utility requirements and the new vehicle path.
