Working at Overhead Door Company of Albany

Overhead Door Company of Albany has been installing and repairing garage doors and garage door openers for Capital Region homes and businesses for more than 20 years. We are locally owned by David and Kimberley Ripley and based in Clifton Park, and our service trucks are on the road every day across nine counties.

We are always looking for qualified people to join our team. Our technicians are factory certified on Overhead Door™ products, the brand that invented the upward-lifting garage door, and we will train the right person even if you have never worked on a garage door before.

Our customers notice the people we hire, and they often mention them by name.

Evan and Dylan showed up on time, did a wonderful job and are a great model for young men that show quality work ethic. The young men that are a part of the workforce should be commended for their self motivation and commitment to a company.

Who we are looking for

We are looking for people who work hard and show up on time. You should have some mechanical experience and a clean driving record.

The work happens at customers’ homes and businesses, sometimes on your own and sometimes as part of a crew, so you need to be comfortable working both ways. You don’t need garage door experience. We will train the right person.

What the work is like

Our technicians repair and service garage doors and garage door openers of any brand, for homeowners and for businesses. On a typical day that can mean replacing a broken spring at a house in Saratoga County, then repairing a commercial garage door in Albany.

Garage door work is hands-on and it is done safely. Springs and cables are under high tension, so training in how to handle them properly comes first. A big part of the job is also explaining to customers what you found and how to look after their garage door.

The service people who came were professional, fast, and went above and beyond. Not only did they fix the issue we were having in the moment, they told me how to maintain the garage door so we would have fewer issues going forward.
