Welcome to the Vortex Training Center

In December 2008, Vortex completed our new State-of-the-Art Training Center. This was developed to enhance your career at Vortex, gain mechanical knowledge and receive experience with all types of doors and door products including dock levelers. This training course also covers specialized techniques such as welding, torch use, loading and ladder safety. We also aggressively cover how to properly meet and greet Customers to provide them with excellent Customer Service the Vortex way.

This Center was designed to give all of our Technicians hands on training in a well organized, intimate atmosphere. We use innovative tools and equipment for you to develop excellent door repair and replacement skills. This is an investment back into the future of our people and the future of Vortex.

Everyone who finishes this 5-day course walks away with a greater knowledge of doors, safety, procedures, and confidence to carry on the tradition of Vortex Excellence.

In the end, this investment was made to help insure our Customers are delighted by providing them an excellent repair or installation done by a high quality, professional technician. This also develops a group of excellent Field Technicians certain to have a successful, safe, and long-term career at Vortex.

As of January 2013, Vortex became an authorized certification facility to provide AAADM Training and Certification to select Vortex Technicians. This provides our Technicians a unique and exclusive one-on-one training on all types of Automatic Doors. Once complete they will receive their AAADM Certification status.

In January 2016, we expanded our Training Center and moved it to Irvine, CA. We were able to add more door and hardware options to encompass more training and knowledge for our Technicians.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Excellent

Just want to take a minute and thank our install Technician Wes w/ Vortex doors. A true professional who installed keyless system for our office. Wes did an exceptional job and meticulously ensured that he left our front lobby cleaner than when he arrived. Could not be happier with this portion of the install!

Patrick from the West Valley location was extremely helpful and efficient! He was able to fully diagnose two problematic commercial door issues, one of which we have had looked at multiple times by other technicians. Before he left, he made sure we had an idea of what it would cost for repairs. Thank you Patrick for your dedication to doing the job right!

Nigel and Kevin helped us tremendously today. We had a couple issues with some doors in our space that were hindering our member experience, but not any more thanks to Nigel and Kevin. Whenever we see them on the schedule to be here, we know our problems will be solved. Thanks again fellas!

If you’re looking for quality work on overhead doors and gate operators then look no further than Vortex!!! Vortex has serviced us at FedEx for 15 years and never let us down! Today was no exception when we called in an emergency work order as Ryan and Pablo were going home. The response time was first class. I also need to mention Rob and Breanna put it all together and made it happen. Great teamwork!!!! From all of us at FedEx we thank you!!!
Eric G.
Irving and Dymitry were AMAZING!!! Payed attention to detail and noticed that the door was not fully aligned and they took their time to align is without us mentioning. Only reason I point this level of attention is due to having many other vortex technicians come out and just do what they had to do and leave. Knowing that they were going to get paid regardless. They also both had GREAT communication skills as well as their customer service!!
