Runner, Warehouse Redwood City, CA
Job description
Like a fine watch or a storied automobile, the precision milling and advanced technology of gate development has become as much art as science. A well designed gate using the best mechanical and controls can significantly outlast a gate that is less refined, built to a lower standard or utilizes mechanical that is under-powered or cheaply produced. A&D installed its first gatepost in 1975. Over the years we have installed gates at iconic buildings like the Transamerica building and Apple Park and we have installed gates for iconic people in the music, entertainment and sports industries.
Our products are built here in Northern California and produced by a team of artisans who have hundreds of years of combined experience. Our specialized teams are as comfortable with the forge, hammer and anvil as they are with board level programming, access control systems, RFID and Bluetooth access technologies.
