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.

Excellent
Henry R.
Another gate issue. But I wasn't stressed out this time because I know where to call.
Vortex was the one. Eddie and Robert came and fixed the problems and done. I'm glad now I know where to call and not wasting time other companies trying to get a quotation. Thank you, Eddie and Robert!
James F.
We were in urgent need of a dock lift repair and called several other companies that were unable to help. Daniel and Zack showed up same day, ordered a forklift and completed a complicated repair same day. Amazing service.

Andy does phenomenal work! I greatly appreciate his due diligence, level of professionalism and his high attention to detail. He's worked on site several occasions and I am completely satisfied with his work. Good quality doors, should last if maintained well. Will use again.

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!
Myra S.
Thank you for sending out Paz and Craig to the site. They were super courteous and professional.

Anthony worked very carefully and patiently to fix our broken roll-up door. He also try to repair the old door as much as possible to avoid replacing a new door. The job was perfectly done.

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!!!

Vortex Doors does quality work. Pricing is fair. Communication is excellent. They do a good job of making sure they have all the necessary information when coming out in advance of starting the job, then send multiple updates while waiting for parts. We have had rollup door repairs and new rollup installations and a standard steel door installed and all are still working great. I would recommend Vortex for industrial door services.
