The Position:

We are currently looking to expand our Installation Crew as we continue to grow. Our installers bring custom material from our factory in Portland directly to our client's homes and then install according to the computer generated plans created by our Design Consultants. Our clients are the most important part of our business and must be treated respectfully at all times. Installations are typically booked no less than 4 weeks in advance, which means very steady work, however, it also means keeping to a schedule is a must. We attempt to schedule such that installers work 8-9 hours per day.

Typical Day:

• Installers arrive at 7:00 AM in Tualatin, review plans and ask any questions about the installation.
• Installers depart our facility by 8:00AM and drive to our client's address using our installation vehicle.
• Installer arrives at client, introduces self, collects installation payment, and inspects installation location, making sure that all room dimensions and obstructions match up with plans.
• If there are any discrepancies, Installers work with client, Closet Factory Designer and office to determine a path forward.
• Installer then removes client's existing storage, if present, and lightly patches any holes.
• Typical storage is wire shelving, and may occasionally be wood shelves and closet rods.
• Installer then unloads product from van, which is loaded as flat pieces in the installation van and brings them to, or near, the installation area.
• Installer builds the client's custom storage product by using the computer generated top view and elevation view plans.
• This can take as few as 4 hours, or one job may require returning for a total of five days.
• Installer cleans the product, cleans up any mess from construction and re-organizes tools into the installation van.
• Installer presents product to client, explains adjustability, answers any questions and collects final payment.
• Installer returns to Closet Factory, cleans van of any scrap material, trash or removed storage product, replenishes any hardware fittings in van and organizes all tools.
• Installer then reviews plans for next day's install, asks any questions about install, and then while checking off parts and reviewing for quality, loads the parts into the van, securing them properly.
• Any parts that are found missing are reported with a Smartphone App and are built first thing the next morning, so that the installer can leave on time.
• Installations may use one Installer, and Installer and a Helper, or for very large jobs, may involve multiple crews.

We recognize people as our most valuable asset and will train you to excel in your position and grow within the company. A future with Closet Factory has never been brighter!
