Job Description

Level II Access Control Technician Dallas-Fort Worth, TX

Doors, Devices, and Deadlines. You Know How to Handle All Three.

A door that won't release. A mag-lock that won't engage. A device that isn't communicating. While others are trying to figure out what's wrong, you're already working on the solution.

If you know your way around commercial access control systems and take pride in getting installations right the first time, we have an opportunity worth looking into.

TradeSTAR is recruiting an experienced Level II Access Control Technician for a long-term opportunity with an established commercial security systems integrator serving the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

We're looking for someone who can do more than follow instructions. We need a technician who understands the installation process, can work independently, troubleshoot problems, and step up to help guide a crew when needed.

If you're the technician others turn to when things get complicated, we want to hear from you.

The Opportunity

This position involves hands-on installation of electronic security and access control systems across commercial projects throughout DFW.

You'll be working with everything from door hardware and security devices to low-voltage cabling and system troubleshooting.

Your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

  • Installing and terminating commercial access control and security cabling.

  • Installing mag-locks, electric strikes, panic hardware, and power transfer hinges.

  • Working with door position switches (DPS), motion detectors, cameras, and glass-break devices.

  • Pulling, routing, labeling, and terminating low-voltage cabling.

  • Reading blueprints, floor plans, and security system drawings.

  • Planning cable pathways and identifying proper device locations.

  • Testing installations, identifying wiring issues, and troubleshooting devices.

  • Completing installations independently with minimal supervision.

  • Participating in jobsite walk-throughs and coordinating with other trades.

  • Providing direction and assistance to less-experienced technicians.

  • Occasionally overseeing small crews of approximately 3 5 technicians.

  • Maintaining a safe, organized, and productive jobsite.

Do You Have What It Takes?

We're looking for technicians who know the difference between simply installing a device and making sure the entire installation works the way it should.

Here's what we're looking for:

  • At least 2 years of commercial access control or electronic security installation experience.

  • Hands-on experience installing access control devices and electronic door hardware.

  • Working knowledge of mag-locks, electric strikes, panic hardware, DPS, power transfer hinges, and related security devices.

  • Ability to read prints, plan cable routes, and understand installation layouts.

  • Experience testing and troubleshooting low-voltage security systems.

  • Confidence working independently and completing assigned tasks.

  • Experience working in active commercial construction environments.

  • Strong communication skills and the ability to work with customers, contractors, and other technicians.

  • Willingness to help guide a small crew when needed.

  • A commitment to safety, quality workmanship, and getting the job done right.

  • Texas Security License preferred.

Good Technicians Install Systems. Great Technicians Understand Them.

At Level II, your experience should speak for itself.

You know how to approach a job, recognize potential problems, and make adjustments before small issues turn into major setbacks.

This opportunity gives you the chance to put those skills to work while continuing to develop the leadership and technical experience that can open doors to future roles.

Whether your goal is to become a Level III Technician, Lead Technician, Foreman, or eventually move into Project Management, every successful installation adds to your experience.
