Steel Dor

Responsible for Treasure, Customer Service and Sales marketing. Have been in the customer service industry for 23 years as a flight attendant.  

Born and raised in Tucson Arizona. Owner of Steel Dor since 1980.

Left Tucson and attended Northern Arizona University for WAY too long of a time. (The time line is debatable depending on who you ask. God I wish I were back there now.)

Back at Steel Dor HQ in 2000. Implemented computer systems and removed the handwriting of pretty much everything. (See link to ENRON.) I have been the IT staff ever since.  If there is one thing that I could have everyone understand is P.I.C.N.I.C. (Problem In Chair, Not In Computer). My detractors subscribe to C.O.S.I.N.E. (Computers Obviously Suck In Numerous Edifices).

I enjoy spending time with my family and trying to golf whenever there are no computer problems or issues, needless to say, I don’t get to do either one very much.

My name is Joe and I was born and raised in Tucson, Arizona. I am married with 2 children and 1 grandson. I have been in the Hollow metal Door, Frame and Hardware industry for over 40 years. I am Production Operations Manager at Steel Dor. Each day is a new challenge for me as I outwit the Sales Staff's requests for the difficult to impossible modifications they require. The difficult I can usually do in a couple hours, the impossible usually takes a day or two. We have a great team of installers to conquer any challenges we face in the field. 

I began my journey in the door business 40 years ago fabricating Hollow Metal frames. Before long I was prepping doors for hardware and eventually installing doors, frames, and hardware. I got my start in Finish Hardware hand writing Finish Hardware Schedules for a company that only supplied hardware. they finally decided to venture into the door business and with a little help from me opened a fabrication shop. I worked for that company for 25 years! there I was exposed to many facets of the door business and learned a basic knowledge of Access Control. I learned to also read plans and specs however still scratch my head at some of the drawings.When that company decided to close their doors the opportunity opened at Steel Dor and I was ecstatic they considered this old man. Call me and let experience work for you!

My hobbies include my Grandson Kenny, hiking, biking, reading and volunteer work I do in the community servicing the needs of women. 

I began working with doors around 1980, in the foolish impetuousness of youth, I was not wise enough to escape when I could. In 1984 I received my Basic and Advanced Certification as a locksmith. Shortly thereafter, I began estimating and Outside Sales. Studied Commercial Blueprint reading at Pima community College and still can't figure out what they've drawn. Have spent over 20 years associated with some of the best people in the business and still enjoy coming to work everyday. 

I started working at Steel Dor in February 2016. Our office is the friendliest and funniest staff you will want to keep coming in to see and place your orders. I am the friendly voice you hear when you call. I direct calls to the Sales Personnel and take messages. I also do accounts receivable , I take down payments for orders and for remaining balances on orders that are ready for pickup.So when you want to pay I am ready and waiting for your call.
