Sliding Hangar Doors

Sliding and multi-panel horizontal doors come in all sizes. Vortex can help service, repair, and refurbish all types of horizontal sliding doors.

Horizontal sliding doors are a popular choice for oversized commercial buildings due to their versatility, efficiency, and aesthetics. They operate by sliding horizontally, typically opening from side to side, with overhead rollers supported by a floor track.

Though horizontal sliding doors are generally low maintenance, like any other system, they can experience mechanical issues over time. Vortex has the experience and technical expertise required to handle issues that impact performance and longevity, such as:

Track and Roller Wear. Debris often builds up on rollers and tracks over time, which can lead to difficulty opening and closing the door, especially in exposed areas, prone to stormy weather. Regular cleaning and lubrication help prevent this issue.
Worn or Damaged Rollers. Weight, pressure, and friction can wear out rollers, leading to problems with traction and load distribution. Recurring inspections and replacements allow the door to operate smoothly.
Misalignment. Because buildings can settle and track components can shift over time, tracks have to be regularly checked and adjusted to ensure they continue to open and close properly.

Weather Stripping and Seals. Worn, crack, and damaged weatherstripping prevents your climate systems from working efficiently. Seals need to be inspected at least once a year in order to maintain the door’s performance.
Motor and Electrical Systems. If your door is motorized, its gears, sensors, drive system, and electrical components should be tested periodically to make sure they are working as intended.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Excellent

Andrew M.

Vortex Doors does quality work. Pricing is fair. Communication is excellent. They do a good job of making sure they have all the necessary information when coming out in advance of starting the job, then send multiple updates while waiting for parts. We have had rollup door repairs and new rollup installations and a standard steel door installed and all are still working great. I would recommend Vortex for industrial door services.

This was my 3rd experience with Vortex coming out to service my company's doors and they have always been friendly and professional. Today was no different. Raul was awesome.

I called Vortex this morning, provided my company's information and address. The receptionist who answered was polite and told me a tech would call on there Arrival, to which Vincent did. I met with Vincent outside, clean and professional appearance in both himself and vehicle. I explained the issues with both the gate and bay door. Vincent quickly assessed the problem, suggested some technical expertise and resolved the problem quickly. Now my business can go back to normal operation safely. Thank you Vincent and Vortex for your quick and professional service.

If you’re looking for quality work on overhead doors and gate operators then look no further than Vortex!!! Vortex has serviced us at FedEx for 15 years and never let us down! Today was no exception when we called in an emergency work order as Ryan and Pablo were going home. The response time was first class. I also need to mention Rob and Breanna put it all together and made it happen. Great teamwork!!!! From all of us at FedEx we thank you!!!

Eric and Ismael were super kind and efficient. Another company installed a door at our warehouse, poorly, which caused us to shut our business down for a few hours. We called Vortex to come and fix the door for us, within an hour they were here and these guys knew what they were doing, fixed all the issues, and got us back in business quickly.
I really appreciate the professionalism, efficiency and knowledge.

Perfect service, incredibly fast.
