A lock-out at 2am and a master key job across a whole building in the same week, both on the one record.
Online booking
Rekeys after a settlement, deadbolt installs and lock swaps sit on your page at a set price, so the planned half of the week turns up without a call.

See the whole day, put the emergency where it actually fits, and give the person standing outside their own house a time that will hold.
Learn moreThe number is agreed while they are still on the phone and it travels on the job, so the conversation on the step is about the lock rather than about what this is going to cost.
Hours and days off belong to the person, not to a wishful roster, so a call at three in the morning is only ever offered to somebody who is actually awake and covering it.
Half of this work is a second visit. What went in last time, which keyway it takes and what you were told about the tenancy are all on the property, not in your head.
Built for locksmiths
Someone is outside their own house at 2am. The job carries the address, the time you gave and a price agreed before you turn the key.
New owners book the whole-house rekey the week they pick up the keys, at a price on the page rather than one you say out loud.
The property manager books the changeover, and the job files itself against that address rather than against the agency.
Deadbolts and window catches for an insurer, quoted per door with the keying noted, accepted online before anything is ordered.
A patented keyway with a register: every key cut, who signed for it and when, on a record the client can actually be shown.
One key for the caretaker, one per unit, quoted by the door so a twenty-door job is the four-door job with a bigger count.
Priced on the phone, confirmed on site. Notes and photos land on the record, which earns its keep if the same safe comes back.
Short work that only pays if it is near where you already are, so it fills a gap between booked jobs rather than a morning.
One client, several buildings. Each entry keeps its own visits and its own keyway, so nothing is filed against the wrong door.
A body corporate with a shared entry: rekey what is there, new cylinders on one common key, or a full master key system with a key register.
Cylinders, keys cut and labour are lines with a count and a rate, so a twenty-door job is the four-door job with a bigger number.
They accept online by typing their name, and the accepted quote becomes the booking with every line already on it.
The quote number is fixed the moment it is issued, so your copy and the committee’s copy are unmistakably the same document.
Pro puts the three on one document with one marked recommended, so the committee picks instead of waiting on another site visit. Cash and bank transfer stay free on every plan.
Changeovers and settlement rekeys come in a fortnight ahead. A page with no slots left reads as a business that has shut up shop.
With the diary full the page asks rather than closes, and the request arrives as a thread with the address and the doors on it.
Accept and it becomes a real booking with the details attached. Decline and it closes politely, with no phone call either way.
A request is a conversation, so you can ask who owns the door before you agree to open it rather than afterwards.
Tenant handed the keys back Friday. Can you change both locks before the new one moves in?
Open slots are scored by the driving each one adds, so the emergency lands nearest where you already are. You still pick the one.
Managing agents and building managers are held as a single customer with every property under them, so a changeover files against the right entrance and the invoice still goes to the office.
Twenty minutes in daylight is not twenty minutes at two in the morning. Claim the districts you cover and the rest has to ask first.
A job shouted down the phone at 2am and one booked a fortnight out end on the same record: accepted, attended, done, paid.
Accepted, on the way, on site, done. The stranger outside their house and the office rekey use the same statuses.
Drag the rekey to Thursday and the address, the doors and the notes travel with it. Moving work is free on any plan.
Notes and photos say which cylinder went in and how you got past the old one, which is what you will be asked in a year.
Emergency work is settled on the spot. Recording cash or a transfer costs nothing at all; cards are the part that sits on Pro.
Mark it paid on the phone before you drive off and the receipt sends itself, with no plan involved in any of it.
Charge the card against the job in the app, or send a request they settle from their own phone while you load up.
A master key system can be split into a leg now and the rest on handover. That happens on the job, not at a checkout.

No. There is no locksmith licence here and no register to be on, which is why what you can show a customer matters more than usual. The trade route is an apprenticeship to the New Zealand Certificate in Locksmithing (Trade) at Level 4, and your own record of work is the rest of it.
They can, and most will ring anyway. Keep the page for the planned work and set an emergency entry as request-only: it lands as a thread with the address on it, which you accept or decline while you are still pulling your boots on.
That check is yours and no software should pretend otherwise. What Bookables does is keep it. Photograph the licence or the tenancy agreement, attach it to the booking with a note, and it stays on the job and on the customer.
Yes. Charge the card against the job before you pack up, or send a payment request they settle from their phone at the gate. Cards come with Pro. Cash and bank transfer recorded by hand are free on any plan.
Every property sits under the customer as its own subject, so the keyway, the cylinder sizes and every visit to that door are held together. Internal notes and attachments are never shown to the customer.
Yes. Claim the districts you cover and anything outside them arrives as a request rather than a booking. Nothing charges extra for the longer drive; it just stops the middle of the night deciding your morning.
