Merrimack, NH – Fimbel Garage Doors recently acquired Door Dealer Accreditation by the Institute of Door Dealer Education and Accreditation (IDEA), a division of the International Door Association (IDA) that manages education and professional development opportunities for organizations and individuals in the garage door and access systems industry. This seal signifies a commitment to industry excellence, an accomplishment that fewer than one percent of garage door dealers in North America have achieved.
To earn this badge on behalf of the family-owned organization, General Manager Jon Fimbel demonstrated professional knowledge of the ever-changing industry and its products by successfully passing written examinations on the subjects of Accounting and General Business Principles, Legal and Insurance, OSHA Regulations and Safety Compliance, Residential Technical Basics, Commercial Technical Basics and Sales and Marketing Management. Fimbel also provided documentation of exceptional business practices and received recommendations from industry peers and business partners.
The final steps of the business accreditation process took place in April 2024 at the annual IDA Expo in Las Vegas, NV, where several Fimbel Garage Doors team members also earned individual certifications. Technicians Tucker Martin, Tim Maghakian and Jason Drechsler earned the title of Certified Master Technician after completing four IDEA credential programs focused on Residential Installations, Commercial Sectional Door Systems, Commercial Rolling Door Systems and Rolling Steel Fire Doors. Fimbel Garage Doors had a strong presence at the annual expo, with six individuals earning certifications in their technical specialty, bringing the company’s total number of certified technicians to thirteen. At the April gathering, Vice President and Lead Technician Andy Fimbel accepted the Door Technician of the Year Award, a prestigious honor that recognizes individuals who demonstrate exceptional skill, dedication, and contributions to the garage door industry.
“As a member of the International Door Association since 1999, Fimbel Garage Doors is proud to demonstrate our continued commitment to excellence in our industry with this accreditation,” said Jon Fimbel, General Manager at Fimbel Garage Doors in Merrimack, NH. “All of our technicians strive to achieve a high level of knowledge on regulatory and safety standards, and our team is always thinking of new ways to expand our technical expertise. We are all so proud of Tucker, Tim and Jason for their commitment to continued education and exceptional customer service.”
