OUR COMPANY STORY
1976: The first expansion to provide needed space for the growth of the first four years.
1982: A new location was purchased to meet our next expansion. B.M.R. Mfg. Inc. was formed to be our manufacturing division, becoming the second manufacturer of school bus Stop Arms in North America.
1990: The development of new stop arm technology, and the granting of new patents attracted interest from both retrofit opportunities, and school bus manufacturers.
1991: The introduction of the Yellow Polycarbon Crossing Gate.
1995: 911-property identification came on the scene, and every rural address had to have a number sign. We invested in more leading-edge printing and sign making equipment to meet this need.
1997: Expansion to a larger plant was necessary to accommodate new demands for our Stop arms and Crossing Gates from School Bus Manufacturers, and to meet the growing retrofit after-market.
2001: The weather-resistant BMR 8000 series Stop Arm and Crossing Gate assemblies were born. Mounted safely in the electrical panel, this is the first remote electronic Crossing Gate and Stop Arm controller.
2002: The innovative Permanent Magnetic Gate Lock that secures the crossing gate to the front of the bumper. This lock eliminates the problem of wind, for example off an open field or from the ocean, which can catch the arm and cause unnecessary damage or wear.
2003: The addition of the Brake Test to the BMR 8000 series safety system of Stop Arms and Crossing Gates.
2004: The development of L.E.D. lighting for a brighter and ultra-reliable light source for our high quality Stop Arms.
2005: The development of contoured Crossing Gate Arms, an original development of B.M.R. Manufacturing Inc. in 1991.
2009: Demand for a mounting bracket that would allow two Chevrons to be mounted on the same post for opposite directions.
2012: Development of a flip sign to change the RB-76 sign from a 60 day sign to a 365 day sign with a unique message to be posted on the reverse of the side.
2014: Development of a 90 cm x 120 cm workstand, allowing for Do Not Enter and Road Closed signs to be put in an A-Frame, Aluminum, No-Pinch workstand.
