Our Team

Jeremy Michaelson
Jeremy Michaelson completed an electrician trade apprenticeship in the commercial electrical contracting industry, before joining Architectural Glass Projects (AGP) in 2013. With AGP, Jeremy worked on fabrication and installation of a wide variety of automatic equipment, including revolving doors, security laneways, auto louvres, operable walls, operable roofs, speed lanes, and many more. If it’s possible to automate something, Jeremy has probably done it.

With Record Automatic Doors, Jeremy established and grew the service division, eventually concentrating on training technicians in NSW and Victoria as the team grew. All along, he has been a key team member in major installations all over the country, in airports and all manner of commercial buildings – including the new Sydney Crown Resort.

The founding of SM Automatic Doors is a logical step for such a capable person and, in partnership with Vincent Shayler, Jeremy aims to challenge the automatic door service industry to keep up SM Doors standards of service.

Jeremy completed his trade apprenticeship in Electrotechnology - Electrician, and holds a National High Risk Work Licence, and EWPA Yellow Card for Elevating Work Platforms.

Vincent Shayler
Vincent “Vinny” Shayler began his automatic door career with Kaba Gilgen in the United Kingdom, after a brief stint in the service of Her Majesty’s Royal Navy. 

Vinny gained qualification from City & Guilds of London in Electrical installation, and cut his teeth on auto door fabrication before going on the road to install shopfronts and automatic doors.

He later ran teams of automatic door service technicians in the UK until moving to Australia with his family in 2015.

In Australia, Vinny was in supervisory and senior roles in automatic doors service with Auto Ingress, Record Automatic Doors, just to mentione a few.

Now as a co-founder of SM Automatic Doors, Vinny is stepping up to the challenge of creating the best service company in the automatic door industry.
