Door & Hardware Installer

Job Overview

We are looking for a highly skilled and experienced Door & Hardware Installer to join us on a project basis in the Greater Vancouver area. The ideal candidate brings deep hands-on expertise across residential and commercial door systems — from traditional wood and hollow metal doors to advanced electrified, automatic, and ADA-compliant hardware. You take pride in precision, can read a set of drawings, and deliver clean, code-compliant installations that make both clients and inspectors happy.

Projects are primarily based in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland. The ability to mobilize for out-of-area projects across British Columbia is considered a strong asset.
