History
A United Automatic Doors & Glass is a family owned business consisting of three generations of Glaziers and Automatic Door professionals. The company was founded by Jim and T.J. Hannum October 1, 1997 as A United Glass and Construction. Jim’s father, Eddie was a Journeyman Glazier and is how Jim became interested in the glass business. Jim attended the University of Nebraska at Omaha and after spending two years at the University of Nebraska Omaha in the Architecture and Design Program, he followed in his father’s footsteps and went into the construction trades. He subsequently became an apprentice and earned his Journeyman’s credentials to become a Journeyman. After seven years of quality service to the community, TJ and Jim established a niche in the automatic door industry. Stanley Access Technologies Inc. of Farmington, CT., recognized A United’s expertise in customer satisfaction and in the Automatic Door niche. Stanley Access Technologies, awarded A United Glass and Construction a Distributorship to supply, install, service and repair Stanley Doors. To reflect this business niche and expertise, T.J. and Jim Hannum decided to change their name to, A United Automatic Doors & Glass, Inc. And in 2004 their name was officially changed to A United Automatic Doors & Glass. |
