I deal with a lot of vendors every day across several properties in the Inland Empire.
If all of them would respond like Vortex professionally,with courtesy and provide the service they say they're going to for the expense they quoted.
My day would be a lot easier.

Wyatt and Jos' fixed our dock leveler pronto!
Christine E.
The doors at my office are old and in need of repair. Vortex responded immediately & had a technician, David, at my office in under an hour. The technician was not able to fix the problem this trip but I feel that he exhausted every effort to do so. He also took the time to make sure everything else with the door was in working order. He also took the time to explain what the problem was and what could be done to fix it. He was extremely nice and professional as well. I highly recommend Vortex & their technician David and will continue to call them for all the doors at my office.

I will say we have had some issues with Vortex doors in the past however the techs that have been out, namely Wyatt is great! Wyatt has been out to service our doors a few times and he is very transparent with what is happening with the door and how he is going to fix it. Great job Wyatt!
