Job description

Looking for a change? Take your trade skills into a specialised industry!

Are you a Locksmith, Auto Electrician, Security Technician, or Electrical/Mechanical Service Technician looking for your next career opportunity?

BriTer Door Solutions is growing, and we're looking for motivated, technically minded tradespeople who want to build a long-term career in the Automatic Pedestrian Door Industry.

You don't need previous automatic door experience!

If you're confident working with electrical and mechanical systems, enjoy fault finding and take pride in delivering quality service, we can provide the industry-specific training to help you make the transition.

Your existing skills in access control, electronic locking, sensors, motors, wiring and troubleshooting could make you a great fit for our team.

What you'll be doing

As an Automatic Pedestrian Door Technician, you'll be working across a variety of commercial buildings and facilities throughout Greater Sydney.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Servicing, maintaining and repairing automatic sliding, swing and other pedestrian door systems.


• Diagnosing electrical, electronic and mechanical faults in automatic door operators and control systems.


• Working with sensors, motors, controllers, safety devices, electronic locks and access control interfaces.


• Carrying out preventative maintenance and safety inspections to ensure automatic doors operate safely and reliably.


• Installing and commissioning automatic pedestrian door systems and associated components.


• Attending customer sites to troubleshoot breakdowns and complete repairs.


• Providing professional, friendly service to our commercial and facility management customers.


• Completing service reports and maintaining accurate job records.

Previous experience with automatic pedestrian doors is an advantage, but definitely not essential.

What matters most is your technical ability, willingness to learn and commitment to doing the job properly.

Who we're looking for

We're particularly interested in hearing from people with experience in:

• Locksmithing – especially electronic locking, commercial hardware and access control.


• Security Systems – including electronic security, access control, intercoms and electronic locking systems.


• Electrical or Electronic Service Work – particularly fault finding, wiring, sensors and control systems.


• Mechanical Service & Maintenance – including motors, moving mechanisms and mechanical troubleshooting.

What you’ll bring

• A strong mechanical and/or electrical aptitude.


• Confidence using hand tools, power tools and diagnostic equipment.


• Good fault-finding and problem-solving skills.


• Experience working independently and attending customer sites.


• A professional, friendly attitude and good communication skills.


• Pride in your workmanship and attention to detail.


• A current NSW driver's licence, including the ability to drive a manual vehicle.


• A strong commitment to workplace safety.


• A willingness to learn new systems and develop specialised technical skills.


• Availability for overtime and participation in an after-hours on-call roster.

What we offer

At BriTer, we believe in investing in good people and developing their skills.

You’ll receive:

• Industry-specific training – learn how to service, repair and maintain automatic pedestrian door systems.


• Fully maintained Toyota Hilux – including NAVMAN and toll pass.


• All tools and equipment supplied – everything you need to get the job done.


• Company iPhone and iPad – to manage your daily service work.


• Company uniforms supplied.


• Attractive hourly rate – negotiable based on your existing skills and experience.


• Overtime opportunities – with participation in an after-hours on-call roster.


• Career development – build specialist knowledge in a technical industry.


• Supportive team environment – work alongside experienced technicians who can help you develop your skills.


• Long-term career opportunity – join an established Sydney business with a strong commercial customer base.

Why move into Automatic Pedestrian Doors?

If you're currently working in locksmithing, security or access control, moving into automatic pedestrian doors is a natural next step.

You’ll be able to apply many of the skills you already have while learning new electrical, electronic and mechanical systems.

It’s a hands‑on, technical role that offers variety, independence and the satisfaction of solving problems every day.

We’re not expecting you to know everything about automatic doors from day one. We’re looking for the right attitude, solid technical foundations and a willingness to learn.

We work with major building owners, property managers and facility management companies, providing reliable service and technical solutions.

Ready for a new direction?

If you're a Locksmith, Security Technician, Access Control Technician or mechanically/electrically minded tradesperson looking for a new challenge, we'd love to hear from you.
