Founded in 1966 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Door Engineering has grown from a small workshop into a global provider of innovative door solutions for industrial, commercial, aviation, and other specialized applications. Over the past 60 years, they have expanded capabilities and strengthened their portfolio, becoming a leader in delivering solutions that protect, connect, and support customers in a variety of environments.
A LEGACY OF EXCELLENCE
Since 1966, over 9,000 doors have been installed, including more than 4,000 four-fold doors operating in 1,000+ fire stations nationwide. These doors support over 5 million emergency responses each year, giving firefighters reliable performance without concerns about broken springs or overhead door collisions.

“60 years is an impressive history for any manufacturing company. Door Engineering’s legacy is not measured in years, it is measured in the value our teams deliver to customers through superior engineering, exceptional execution, and reliable doors that perform when they matter most,” said Hal Shapiro, President, Commercial and Industrial.
