Fort Wayne, IN – (March 10, 2025) – Access Garage Doors, a leading garage door supplier and servicer, proudly announces a major milestone in its franchise expansion. The Chattanooga-based brand awarded its 23rd nationwide location to Dustin and Cara Goodwin of Fort Wayne, Indiana. This continues the company’s steady growth across the U.S., further solidifying its reputation as a premier brand in the garage door industry.
The new location will serve northeast Indiana, the more than 250,000 residents in Fort Wayne, the 83rd largest city in America, and surrounding areas. Dustin Goodwin, an experienced professional in the garage door sector and a military veteran, is ready to start his own business and bring quality garage services to the Summit City area with Access Garage Doors.
“I have always enjoyed working in the garage door industry. Seeing the look on a customer’s face after you have installed a new garage door is very satisfying. They trusted you to essentially change the look of their home, and it’s something I take pride in. I have always wanted to go into business for myself and just never found the right opportunity. After finding Access and talking through the process with their team, it was very apparent that this was the company for us. Jesse has been very helpful through this process and has always made time to talk through questions we have had. We look forward to continuing to build our relationship with the Access team,” said Goodwin.
While the Fort Wayne location is the first in Indiana for Access Garage Doors, Goodwin joins a team with many veterans. Jesse Cox, CEO of Access Garage Doors, firmly believes military veterans bring immense value to the Access Garage Doors franchise family. The growing brand offers discounts to veterans and takes pride in being a catalyst for service members.
“We are always happy to be growing our presence throughout the U.S. with more locations, but it is always even more special to be working with one of our country’s military veterans to build a life and a business, as they are the ones who protected our freedom to be able to do so. Dustin’s prior experience in the garage door business played a significant role in his decision to join Access. He has seen the true potential of the industry and now plans to leverage the Access Garage Doors franchise program to fully realize that potential,” said Cox. “
With over two decades of experience in the garage door industry, Access Garage Doors has developed a proven business model that allows franchisees to capitalize on a high-demand service with comprehensive support and resources. The company’s commitment to excellence extends to both its customers and its franchise owners, ensuring continued growth and success. At the same time, innovation continues to be a main priority for the brand, adding to and expanding franchisee support and systems.
“As our system continues to evolve, we remain committed to reinvesting our resources to provide our owners with the tools and advantages they may not typically have access to. The entire corporate team believes that this is the key to building a strong national franchise program,” said Chris Evans, Director of Operations at Access Garage Doors.”
