Micaela N.
Employees RJ and Mateo did an amazing job going above and beyond, even what the company asks of them. They spent the day repairing and upgrading our gate, after thieves broke into the business. We are grateful for the work ethic of RJ and Mateo.

Vortex replaced an old exterior door on our facility with a new OSHA-approved option. All of the work was done in one day. John and Ben were very helpful and attentive during the job.

We've used Vortex on our dock levelers and roll up doors in the past and have always had tremendous response time and service from them. Last night however they went above and beyond that built expectation. We had a leveler spring chain break right at closing and we had no way to secure our building. Vortex (Daniel was their technician) arrived and did a fantastic job getting getting our dock leveler down. For other Ops Mgr's our there, I was able to witness first hand how safe and diligent these guys operate. Thanks Vortex!
