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
Stefanie Cordero Q.
Alejandro and Jason did a great job fixing our exit doors! Very efficient!
Kurt S.
As a business owner, I understand that despite our best intentions, things don't always go the way you might want them to. As a consumer, I realize that it is times like this that a company shows it's true colors.
My first interaction with Vortex left me feeling less than pleased with the outcome, and I told them as much when they emailed a satisfaction survey. I never really expected they would follow up.
But, follow up they did.
I got a phone call from Steve Wickens, asking if he could stop by my office and talk about my experience; the next day he was sitting in front of me, asking how to make it right.
We talked it over and in the end, Steve made it right.
I'm sure there was no profit left in the job for them, and considering I only have a small building with one door, I'm not likely to need them again anytime soon. Steve's only possible motivation was personal and professional integrity; traits that are pretty rare these days.
Thank you Steve, thank you Vortex, you have earned my respect, and you have earned this 5 star review. I would happily use your services again and recommend you to anyone.

Ken Keeland from Vortex came today and repairs two doors that were sagging from one of our tenants. He did a fantastic job. He was professional and polite. He made sure that it was to my satisfaction. This is the second time Vortex has done work on the our property and we are very happy with their work. We will continue to use them and will recommend them.

We had an emergency situation with our shop door here in Garden Grove. We called Vortex in Anaheim, not only was the customer service amazing, the response time was absolutely super fast. 2 Technicians showed up to save my door from falling down. Garret and Johny not only saved my door, but they went above and beyond to ensure i had the best experience i could ever hope for!!! I would definitely recommend to everyone. A huge thank you to the Vortex team for an amazing experience!!
