KNOW ALL PERSONS BY THESE PRESENTS, that I, [principal_name] (the "Principal"), a resident of the State of [state_law], being of sound mind and under no duress, do hereby make, constitute, and appoint [agent_name] (the "Agent" or "Attorney-in-Fact") as my true and lawful Agent, to act for me and in my name, place, and stead, with respect to the powers and authority described herein.
WHEREAS, the Principal desires to appoint the Agent to act on the Principal's behalf with respect to certain matters, as more particularly described herein; and
WHEREAS, the Agent is willing to accept such appointment and to act in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this instrument; and
WHEREAS, the Principal intends this Power of Attorney to be governed by the laws of the State of [state_law] and all applicable provisions of the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted therein.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Principal hereby declares and grants this Power of Attorney as follows:
The Principal hereby appoints [agent_name] as the Principal's Attorney-in-Fact (the "Agent"). The Agent shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Principal in all matters described in this instrument, subject to any limitations expressly set forth herein. The Agent shall exercise such powers in a fiduciary capacity, in good faith, and in the best interests of the Principal at all times. The Agent shall act with the care, competence, and diligence ordinarily exercised by agents in similar circumstances and shall not engage in any self-dealing or conflict of interest unless expressly authorized herein.
The authority granted to the Agent under this Power of Attorney is designated as follows and shall be construed in accordance with the applicable type of authority selected below.
Subject to the type of authority designated above, the Principal hereby grants the Agent the following specific powers and authority: [powers_granted] The Agent shall exercise the foregoing powers prudently and in the Principal's best interests. In the event of any ambiguity regarding the scope of the powers granted herein, such ambiguity shall be resolved in favor of granting the Agent the authority reasonably necessary to carry out the Principal's stated intentions. The Agent may employ and compensate, at the Principal's expense, such professionals, advisors, accountants, and attorneys as the Agent deems reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of the Agent's duties hereunder.
This Power of Attorney shall become effective as of 2026-04-07, subject to any springing provisions described in Section 2 above.
This Power of Attorney shall expire and terminate automatically on 2026-04-07, unless sooner revoked by the Principal or terminated by operation of law. Upon the expiration date, the Agent's authority under this instrument shall cease immediately, and the Agent shall have no further power to act on the Principal's behalf. Any actions taken by the Agent after the expiration date shall be void and of no legal effect.
Any third party who receives a copy of this Power of Attorney, whether original, photocopy, or electronically transmitted, may rely upon the authority granted herein and may act in accordance with the Agent's instructions without liability to the Principal or the Principal's estate, heirs, or assigns. No third party shall be required to inquire into the validity or continuing effectiveness of this instrument, nor shall any third party be liable for acting in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney. A third party who refuses to honor this Power of Attorney may be liable for attorneys' fees and damages as provided by applicable law. The Principal hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any third party who acts in good faith reliance upon the representations and authority of the Agent under this instrument.
The Principal reserves the right to revoke, amend, or modify this Power of Attorney at any time, provided that the Principal has the legal capacity to do so. Any revocation, amendment, or modification shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery of written notice to the Agent and to any third party who has previously relied upon this instrument. Until a third party receives actual written notice of revocation, such third party may continue to rely upon the authority granted herein and shall not be liable for any actions taken in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney prior to receiving such notice. Upon revocation, the Agent shall promptly return to the Principal all documents, records, property, and funds in the Agent's possession or control that belong to or relate to the affairs of the Principal.
This Power of Attorney shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of [state_law], including but not limited to the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted by the State of [state_law] and any amendments thereto. The Principal consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of [state_law] for the resolution of any disputes arising out of or relating to this instrument. If any provision of this Power of Attorney is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, such provision shall be severed from this instrument and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
The Agent is hereby authorized and directed to manage all compensation for installation personnel in strict accordance with the Maryland Wage Payment and Collection Law (Md. Code Lab. & Empl. § 3-501 et seq.). Furthermore, the Agent shall ensure that any non-compete agreements or restrictive covenants executed on behalf of the Principal comply with Md. Code Lab. & Empl. § 3-716, specifically acknowledging the nullity of such agreements for low-wage employees earning less than the threshold established by Maryland law.
The Agent is empowered to represent the Principal in all matters regarding the Underwriters Laboratories (UL) 325 Standard. This includes the authority to certify that automatic garage door operators and safety sensors are installed to mitigate hazardous operations. The Agent may execute indemnity clauses and liability disclaimers for residential property owners, provided such clauses do not violate the Maryland Consumer Protection Act or existing state personal property lien laws under Md. Code Ann., Comm. Law § 16-101.
Pursuant to the Maryland Personal Information Protection Act (Md. Code Ann., Com. Law § 14-3501 et seq.), the Agent shall implement and maintain reasonable security procedures to protect the residential customer data gathered during the garage door installation and warranty registration process. The Agent is authorized to sign privacy disclosures required by Maryland law on behalf of the Principal.
[permit jurisdiction scope]
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have executed this Power of Attorney on the date first written above.
Principal
Name: Principal
Date: 2026-04-07
In the high-risk garage door industry, managing high-tension torsion springs and electrical garage door openers requires constant physical presence and administrative oversight. Whether you are scaling your Maryland installation crew or need an agent to pull permits under the Maryland Home Improvement Commission (MHIC) while you are on-site, a specialized Power of Attorney ensures your business operations—from track alignment inspections to warranty dispute settlements—continue without interruption. This document is tailored to MD consumer protection standards and OSHA safety mandates.
Yes. This Power of Attorney can specifically delegate authority to your agent or project manager to sign permit applications and interact with local Maryand building departments to ensure compliance with UL 325 safety standards and structural integrity codes.
If you grant your agent financial or payroll authority, they must strictly adhere to Md. Code Lab. & Empl. § 3-501, ensuring installation crews are paid on time and that deductions for damaged property or equipment—like damaged panels or track systems—comply with state law regarding final wage payments.
While the POA allows an agent to sign contracts and indemnity agreements, it does not absolve the Principal of liability. Your agent can, however, be empowered to settle warranty disputes or property damage claims via the authority granted in this document, subject to Maryland's Consumer Protection Act.
