Employees typically have the opportunity to work on overhead doors in either our Commercial or Residential Departments. Here are a few of the differences:
- Commercial: We install and service nine different products in our Commercial Department, including sectional doors, rolling steel and fire doors, dock equipment, entry doors, gate operators, high-speed doors, among other products. Because we install and service for large commercial clients and small residences in the Michiana area, our training program is rigorous and comprehensive, but rewarding. It is an apprenticeship and new hires will accompany a Lead Technician for several years as you learn the trade. You will get extensive experience in electrical, welding, fabricating, and construction fields, and upon completion you will feel confident in your ability to handle any garage door related task.
- Residential: Team members in our Residential Department are responsible for installing and servicing garage doors at customer’s homes. Because these processes are typically less complicated, our training program is approximately 3 to 6 months. Technicians must possess fantastic customer service skills to succeed. To truly succeed, candidates must have superior communication skills, problem-solving and troubleshooting skills, as well as the ability to work well under pressure.
- Compensation: On average, team members start earning $30,000+. Average Residential Technician compensation is $40,000-$50,000 annually but can be significantly more with commissions. Experienced Technicians can earn over $60,000 annually.
The Overhead Door Company provides:
- Industry-leading pay.
- Health insurance benefits after the first 90 days, and 401(k) after the first year.
- Paid vacations and holidays.
- A healthy and safe work environment. We provide on-site wellness screenings and regularly perform random drug tests of all employees.
- Uniforms and most tools.
- A positive work environment with teamwork and 40 hours or more of training a year.
- A lifelong career, rather than a job.
- Opportunities for advancement.
