"No one is able to do what we do, no one," Larry said of Martin Door's ongoing effort to build the world's finest, safest garage doors with the shortest lead time in the industry. Martin Door calls its approach to lean manufacturing Flo-Max Manufacturing™ and Larry said it is an ongoing process. Despite international acclaim that the company earned last year, Larry cautions against believing Martin Door has arrived. He said the company is still making the effort to improve its ongoing processes, and always will be.

That effort is noticed in the small details. In the hardware department, for example, a new colorized storage rack separates the different sizes of track available with a Martin Door. Previously Martin Door painted different colors on the end of the hardware to separate them. Now the rack takes away that need, and saves some time in cleaning off the coding paint in the process.

In the window department, another storage option has been unveiled developed by the Supervisor, Don McMillen, to handle the increasing demand for window frames in a timely, efficient, cost-effective simplified, orderly, manner. They recently unveiled the first of four storage units that will simplify the "Kan-Ban" storage process.

Martin Door Manufacturing also built a new chamber off its powder coat area to specifically deal with caming options now available with each window on a Martin Door. Windows are available in five different caming options, adding a distinctive look to each Martin Garage Door.
