During our 40+ year tenure, Encon has established many quality relationships with manufacturers in the industry. Without our amazing vendor partners, we would not be able to supply our customers with such a wide variety of superior products. As a thank you, we will highlight a different manufacturer in our new Vendor Spotlight segment.
Today, we are shining the spotlight on a leading gate operator and access control manufacturer. DoorKing has been in the industry for over 77 years, and Encon has had the opportunity to distribute their products for nearly 40 years.
In this Vendor Spotlight feature, read about DoorKing's origin story and discover fascinating facts about Lamar Jackson, who has been our vendor representative for 25 years!
