AUTOMATIC DOOR FIELD TECH: A CAREER FOR THOSE WITH BRAINS AND BRAWN

Enjoy lifting heavy junk, climbing ladders, and using tools, but still want to interact with customers with the finesse of a salesman? Get the best of blue collar and white collar work as an automatic door field service technician!  

WHAT DOES AN AUTOMATIC DOOR TECH DO?
A typical day begins at our shop with a caffeine jolt, a restock of service vehicles, and assignment of daily service calls. Technicians then travel to 4-6 customer locations within our service area where they troubleshoot, diagnose, and make repairs. This involves selling parts, filling out paperwork to document the superb work being performed, and helpfully answering customer questions, providing technical support/customer education, and converting any grumpy customers into happy ones. Additional calls along a route may be added if they come in, so be prepared to call an audible. A day ends by driving directly home from your last call and putting your feet up.  Also we don't just handle the old and broken, but we do shiny new doors too! Our door techs can have the fun  of installing those new door systems as well.  Variety is the spice of life for an automatic door tech.
