Ralph fixed 2 of my doors today at 2 different locations. He was friendly, easy to talk to and explained things clearly. I will definitely be calling Vortex again in the future when my doors aren't doing their jobs.

We have a small print shop storefront close to the AT&T Center (where the SA Spurs play) and needed a retail front door. We shopped around and called a number of door companies with minimal, or should I say, less than enthusiastic efforts to gain our trust and business. Our stores structure was built in the 1950's so there were many company representatives who came to check it out and never got back to us or there quote was out of this world because of the possibility of many unforeseen issues, to say the least. Once we called VORTEX I could tell we finally had the ball rolling in the right direction. There were a number of folks involved from the beginning; the local Mgr. Randy McFarland, Scott McGauvren, to the installers including Cotton and Josh as well as a few others who's names I've forgotten. Most importantly it was a great overall effort by everyone involved ! Although not everything went as planned due to the age of the building and the unexpected obstacles, everything went as smoothly as anyone could expect. Even though they had to return after the initial installation, it was all handled in an organized and professional manner. Thanks to Mr. McFarland and his San Antonio, VORTEX group we have an awesome retail storefront door. JS

Wyatt and Johnny came out to replace a door at our storage facility. They did an amazing job. They communicated very well, they were very friendly. They were here on time and worked hard the entire time. they took down the old door and installed the new one in just a couple of hours. I would recommend them to everyone! Great job!
