Vortex Celebrates 85 Years in Business

January 20, 2022 | Company News

We are thrilled to be celebrating eighty five years in business this year! Vortex has always specialized in door repairs and installations, however over the years we’ve seen a lot change. 

During World War II in the early 1940s, Vortex Doors specialized in blast proof doors for bomb shelters and hangar doors for different Air Force bases. And even then, during turbulent times, we were known for our quality customer service and efficient work. 

Flash forward to the 1970s and we launched our very first branch office in Orange County, California. A few short years later we opened another in San Diego and so began our foundation for timely door repair and quality commercial door installation in Southern California. 

The 1980s and 1990s we continued to build on our founding philosophy which aimed to make each and every customer happy through our quality and fast service. Over the years we saw even more expansion with Service Centers opening up throughout California, Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, Oregon, Texas, Utah and Washington. 

In December 2008, to support our commitment to top-of-

class customer service, Vortex created our state-of-the-art Training Center. The Training Center was designed to provide all our Technicians with hands-on education and receive special certifications. In January 2013, Vortex became an authorized certification facility to provide American Association of Automatic Door Manufacturers (AAADM) Training and Certification to our Vortex Technicians. 

Today, Vortex Doors has thirty Service Centers across 8 different states but one thing remains the same… Our commitment to providing quality service and leaving every job with a happy customer. Thank you to everyone who has supported us over the last eighty-five years! We look forward to continuing to serve you!

Thank you, Angel for saving me from the wind!!! My desk sits right next to the door. Every time the wind blows it pushes my door open and the wind hits me directly. Angel came and saved the day by fixing my door. Not only was he quick and efficient, he was extremely nice. Great customer service all around!
Jeremiah M.
Wyatt and Orland were amazing! Great job to the Vortex team!

I had three door contractors look at my exterior office doors, trying to solve a persistent problem with electric latching & unlatching. One gave up, one proposed complete door replacement. Vortex proposed starting with a modest tune up of the hardware to see if that solved the problem. That did make the doors close and latch reliably, so it was a big improvement. Unlatching was still unreliable, do they came up with a complete package to upgrade the latch system. The techs were friendly and on time. They completed the project on time. My doors now work perfectly. I'll certainly be using Vortex for other projects.

We just had a vertical security bar installed between our front doors yesterday. I was a little nervous about how the device would impact function until Jason spent some time making little adjustments at my request including swing speed, closing sound level, etc. I'm actually very happy with the job he and the team did. Thanks!
