Automated Gate Systems Designer Certification
The Automated Gate Systems Designer Certification program has been developed to enable professional, highly qualified dealers, specifiers, and industry professionals to identify themselves to their customers and business prospects. The demand for credentialed contractors throughout the construction industry has emerged as one of the most effective means of documenting high standards and having been validated by an independent third-party organization, recognized throughout the gate systems industry.
In today’s security-conscious world, the market favors consumers. Homeowners and property managers have many choices to meet their automated gate systems needs, and cost is rarely the most important consideration. When it comes to high-end automated gate systems, the most important factor in most cases is the qualifications and superior performance of the dealer and installers.
Created by a coalition of industry leaders from the International Door Association, the Door and Access Systems Manufacturers Association, and administered by the Institute of Door Dealer Education and Accreditation (IDEA), the Automated Gate Systems Designer Certification program aims to recognize those in the industry who have an exceptional level of expertise. By earning this certification, customers can have confidence that their automated gate system will be designed to meet codes and standards for safety, maximize security and provide the highest level of customer satisfaction.
