Open Roles

We prioritize experienced garage door technicians and also consider qualified installers, commercial specialists, and mechanically skilled helpers.

Garage Door Technician — Residential

Diagnose and repair residential garage doors: springs, cables, rollers, tracks, panels, and opener systems from LiftMaster, Chamberlain, and Genie. Same-day service calls across your assigned region.

Commercial Door / Rolling Gate Technician

Service commercial overhead doors, rolling steel gates and grilles, and loading-dock equipment for warehouses, storefronts, and property-management accounts. High-cycle spring and operator experience valued.

Installer / Installer Helper

Install new residential and commercial garage doors and openers. Helpers with a general trade background who want to learn the door trade are welcome — you’ll work alongside an experienced installer.

Where We're Hiring

Our technicians work regionally — you're dispatched to jobs near where you live, not across three boroughs a day.

Queens, Brooklyn & the Bronx
Long Island (Nassau & Suffolk)
Westchester & Rockland County
Northern & Central New Jersey
Fairfield County, CT

What We Look For

Hands-on mechanical aptitude — door experience is a big plus, but a solid trade background (construction, HVAC, electrical, locksmith) counts
A valid driver’s license and a clean enough record to drive a company vehicle
Comfortable talking to homeowners and facility managers — you are the company on every job site
Reliability: showing up when dispatch says you will is the whole business
For commercial roles: experience with rolling steel, dock equipment, or high-cycle springs

What areas are you hiring in?

Across our tri-state service area — Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Long Island, Westchester and Rockland, northern and central New Jersey, and Fairfield County, Connecticut. Queens-area applicants are especially encouraged to apply.

What types of work arrangements are available?

We consider full-time, commission-based, and per-job arrangements depending on the role, experience, service area, availability, and current need. Tell us what arrangement you prefer in the application.

What happens after I apply?

A real person reviews every application. If your background fits an open role, we’ll call or text to confirm a 15-minute phone interview. Selecting a preferred time does not automatically confirm the interview.
