Meet Ben Wilder

Ben Wilder founded Alpha Sliding Doors in 2019 after years of hands-on experience servicing sliding doors across Florida’s coastal communities. What began as a one-truck operation in Vero Beach has grown into a 3-office company covering 13 Florida counties, serving thousands of homeowners, property managers, and commercial clients.

Ben still personally handles complex installations, multi-slide pocket door systems, and post-hurricane impact-door restoration. Every blog post, how-to guide, and customer-facing piece of content on this site is reviewed by Ben before publication.

When Hurricane Ian tore through Southwest Florida in September 2022, Ben mobilized the entire Alpha team into Lee, Collier, and Charlotte counties for recovery work — documenting every failure mode in the field. That hands-on Florida experience is what separates a specialist from a generalist.

“The thing nobody tells you about sliding doors in Florida: 80% of the failures we see could’ve been prevented with a 30-minute service every two years. We started Alpha to be the company that catches problems before the door fails — not the company that just sells you a new door.”
