Tri-Cities, TN – Access Garage Doors, a leading brand in the rapidly expanding retail garage door sector, proudly announces its latest milestone: awarding its 10th new franchise of the year to serve the Tri-Cities area in Tennessee. This marks a significant achievement for the company, which now boasts a footprint of 21 locations across the United States. Founded in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Access Garage Doors is thrilled to expand its proven business model within its headquarters state.
The newest franchise, owned by Mark Gammon, is set to open in early April 2025, serving Tennessee’s Tri-Cities area, including Greeneville, Johnson City, Bristol & Kingsport, TN. Mark brings a wealth of experience in customer service, team-building, and large-scale multi-unit business management to the Access Garage Doors Franchise Program and is ready to meet the growing demand for high-quality garage door solutions.
It’s evident that Access Garage Doors is experiencing an unprecedented uptick of new locations within home services franchises. According to Verified Market Research, “The U.S. home services market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.1% from 2024 to 2030, increasing from $90.46 billion in 2023 to $156.29 billion by 2030. This growth is driven by factors such as rising homeownership rates, an aging housing stock, and technological advancements.” Within this booming industry, the garage door sector remains somewhat of a sleeper hit, offering exceptional benefits and steady demand.
“The rise of aspiring entrepreneurs has brought increased attention to blue-collar home service franchises with optimized business models that enable fast and efficient growth,” said Jesse Cox, founder and CEO of Access Garage Doors. “Over the years, I’ve seen many underestimate the potential of this industry. However, developing scalable tools and resources is a challenge that can hinder growth. That’s why our corporate team focuses on providing support in these critical areas, allowing franchise owners to maximize their business potential and focus on expansion.”
Chris Evans, Executive Director of Operations, echoed this sentiment: “Valued vendor partnerships, software advancements, and marketing developments are the key areas we focus on to empower our franchisees. At our headquarters, we have dedicated teams continuously refining tools and strategies to help franchise owners and their teams capitalize on opportunities beyond what they could typically achieve independently.”
The Access menu of products and services are in high demand. The numbers speak for themselves. According to Consumer Affairs, in 2022, 66% of new homes now have garage doors with a lifespan of 15-30 years. These systems require regular maintenance at least once a year and typically need a major repair every five years. Such data is precisely what draws investors like Mark Gammon to this field.
“After working 30 years in retail management, I knew I wanted to start my own business,” said Mark Gammon, “I’ve always had an interest in the home services industry, but during my conversations with Jesse, I could see that Access Garage Doors’ business model aligned with what I was looking for in my own business. The visit to the headquarters further confirmed how Jesse and the team’s attention to detail will support my business. I’m looking forward to being a part of this great team to bring Access Garage Doors to Northeast Tennessee.”
As Access Garage Doors continues its rapid expansion, it’s clear that its straightforward approach to customer service and its robust franchise program is cementing its reputation as a household name in the home services industry.
