The Heroes Behind Every Garage Door

Celebrating Technicians on Super Tech Day

At Haas Door, we’re proud of the precision and care that goes into every product we engineer. We sweat the details so our doors meet the highest standards of performance, durability and beauty. But as any good company knows, no product, no matter how well-made, reaches its full potential without the hands and minds of the people who bring it to life out in the world.


That’s why Super Tech Day means so much to us.


It’s a welcome reminder each year that garage door technicians are the linchpins of our industry. They’re the bridge between factory floor and final installation on a happy customer’s home. They’re the people who make sure our work works.


And today, we want to shine the spotlight on them.

More Than Just Installation

Too often, the term “technician” is equated with just installation. And while that’s a core part of the job, it only scratches the surface of what these hardworking pros take on every single day.


Garage door technicians are:


  • Problem solvers – They diagnose potential issues before they happen, often in tough conditions, to keep homes and businesses secure and accessible.

  • Safety experts – They understand that a malfunctioning garage door can be more than a nuisance — it can be a safety risk to your family.

  • Customer educators – From explaining how to operate new openers to recommending maintenance tips, they ensure our end-users feel confident and supported.

  • Emergency responders – When a door jams in the middle of a snowstorm or won’t close before a big holiday weekend, technicians are the ones who get the call.

  • Brand ambassadors – To many homeowners and business owners, the technician is the face of the garage door industry. Their professionalism and craftsmanship shape how people view our entire trade.

That’s a lot of hats. And they wear them well.



Built on Respect

Super Tech Day is an opportunity to say thank you, but it’s also a call to action. As manufacturers, distributors and fellow industry professionals, it’s important for us to continually elevate and respect the technician’s role.


This means investing in training opportunities and celebrating the next generation of skilled tradespeople. It means listening to feedback from the field and improving our products in response. It means recognizing our industry only thrives when we work as partners — not as isolated players.

A Message to the Technicians

To every garage door technician out there: we see you. We appreciate the early mornings, the weekend calls, the crawls through dusty attics and the repairs in sweltering heat. We know the job isn’t easy, and we know it doesn’t always get the recognition it deserves.


But today, we want to be loud and clear: our success depends on you.


You turn our vision into reality. You protect homes and livelihoods. You earn the trust that keeps customers coming back. You are not just part of the story — you are the story.


So from all of us at Haas Door, thank you.


Happy Super Tech Day.

What's New at Haas Door?

When Mademan Design’s Patrick Knobloch was brought on to transform a former St. Louis auto dealership into Makers Yard — a multi-tenant restaurant hub anchoring the city’s new Delmar Maker District — the building’s industrial bones provided an excellent starting point. The challenge, however, was creating a meaningful indoor-outdoor connection across a series of large storefront openings while honoring what the building once was. Haas Door’s aluminum and glass full view sectional doors ended up playing a bigger role in solving that problem than anyone might have expected — right down to surviving an EF3 tornado with zero damage. We asked Knobloch to walk us through the project, the product decisions and what he’d tell other architects working on similar commercial applications.

Every May, Home Improvement Month gives homeowners a nudge to step back and think about the projects that would make the biggest difference — the upgrades that have been sitting on the list a little too long. If you’re not sure where to start this spring, we’d make the case for your garage door. It’s the largest moving part of your home, one of the most visible features of your exterior, and — depending on what door you have — either a significant vulnerability or a serious asset. Here’s why upgrading to a new Haas Door this spring is one of the smartest home improvement decisions you can make.

Energy efficiency is often discussed in terms of windows, insulation and HVAC systems. But one of the largest and most frequently used openings in a home is often overlooked: the garage door. Because the garage connects directly to the living space in many homes, the performance of the garage door affects more than just curb appeal. It plays a meaningful role in comfort, efficiency and long-term home performance. That’s why the way a garage door is built matters.
