Booking software for garage door engineers in the UK.

The door that has decided not to open
A broken spring on an up and over door does not keep until Tuesday. Your page shows the slots you can reach and prices the repair.

Callouts and fitting days, one diary
Half an hour on a snapped cable and a whole day hanging a sectional are different trades. They still share a week, and here they share a board.
Learn moreFull for the week, and a spring has gone.
Today is one long sectional fit and somebody has a car locked in. The page asks rather than closing, so the job does not walk off.
The request brings the detail with it
They name the door and send a photograph of the broken spring, so you know what is going on the van before you ring back.
Answered where it landed
Accept and it becomes a booking in place. Decline and the thread closes rather than going quiet on somebody for a fortnight.
Spring has gone and the car is shut in the garage. Photo attached. Any chance of today?
The callout that suits the run you have.
A spring call only pays if it falls near the fit you are already on. Open slots are scored on the driving each one adds.
Ranked, not reordered
Nothing rearranges the day. The list lifts the slots near the door you are already standing at, and the choice stays yours.
Only people who can do the work
A slot shows only where that person carries the service and covers the area, so the ranking is not a list of hopes.
An arrival window, not a day
Taking a slot writes the window the customer is given and the window the rest of the day is planned around.

Not everyone should be winding springs.
A torsion spring under tension is the dangerous part of this trade. Mark who is trained and the diary stops offering it to the rest.
Skills sit on people
Torsion work, operator installs and sectional fits are marked against the engineers who do them, and the scheduler reads it.
Two on the lift
A sectional is a two-person job. Put the second engineer on the booking with a role, checked free for the whole span.
Moving work is free
Dragging a fit onto another day or another engineer was never the paid part. It works on every plan, the free one included.

Six weeks where nothing visible happens.
Between the signature and the day the door turns up there is a long quiet stretch, and it is where jobs get lost. Bookables does not order your doors or count what is in the yard. It holds the job, so there is a state to read rather than a memory to trust.
The measure-up is a job, not a favour.
Measuring the opening correctly is the difference between a door that fits and a wasted delivery, so it books like anything else, with its own price and duration. Where the service allows it, that fee comes back off the door as a credit line.

The opening remembers its own spring.
Gauge, drum, motor and the panel somebody reversed into. All of it files against the address, so the second call about the same door starts from something written down rather than from what anyone can recall.
Built for doors
Built for the callout and the install
Snapped springs on up and over doors
The car is shut in and the door is unliftable. The repair takes a genuine slot at a set price, confirmed before you set off.
Cables and cones
The parts that go long before the door does, each booked as its own priced visit rather than a vague hour in the diary.
Insulated sectional doors
Measured on a booked visit and quoted as three named options, so a plain panel can be weighed against an insulated one on paper.
Roller shutter garage doors
A tired timber door swapped for a roller shutter, priced off the measure-up and dated once the door is actually with you.
Operator and remote faults
A dead operator or a handset nobody can pair, booked as a short visit against an address that lists what you last fitted.
Side-hinged door repairs
Dropped hinges and a frame that has moved with the brickwork, booked as a repair that already knows the door it is about.
Service and safety visits
A force test, a spring and cable inspection and a balance check, priced and booked exactly like any other service you sell.
Integral garage conversions
A garage under a bedroom needs an insulated door and a tidy frame. Quoted with the frame and the operator as options.
Commercial shutter servicing
A shutter cycling all day wants a monthly look. A standing arrangement puts those visits in the diary without a reminder.

The wait has somewhere to live.
Every message asking whether there is any news lands in the same thread as the quote it belongs to, beside your own team and the notices from Bookables itself.
One address, one door, one balance.
Where the door is, how to reach them, what they have spent with you and what is still outstanding, on one record rather than in three places.
Paid into your account by Stripe.
A leg at the order, the rest at the fit.
Splitting a booked door into stages with their own due dates is a Pro feature, and it happens on the job once the job exists, never on your booking page.
One opening, three doors.
The same opening as an up and over door, as an insulated sectional, or as a sectional with an operator and two handsets.
Measured at the opening, priced at the opening
The measure-up is a booked visit in its own right, and where the service allows it the visit fee comes back off the door as a credit.
The operator is an option, not a second quote
An operator, a keypad or a spare handset each carry their own price change on the same estimate rather than a separate document.
A number set once
The quote number is fixed the moment it is issued, so your copy and their copy are plainly the same document a month later.
Named options come with Pro
Named options are the Pro part: good, better and best on one estimate, your preference marked recommended. The customer accepts online by typing their name, and that option becomes the booked job.

How far a door on the roof bars goes.
A sectional on the roof bars is an hour of the day before you lift a spanner. Pick the areas you cover and the rest asks first.
Real boundaries, not a radius
Areas come from official boundaries rather than a shape you drew, so coverage matches how an address actually resolves.
Past the line, it asks
Outside your areas the customer leaves a request rather than booking, and you take it or decline once you have read it.
Distance never sets the price
Coverage decides what books itself and what has to ask. It has never decided what a door costs to fit.

The invoice more or less sees itself out.
Most repairs are settled at the door, and recording cash or a transfer by hand costs nothing at all, on any plan you are on.
Cash and transfer are free
Mark it paid and the receipt goes out on its own. No plan is involved in the way this trade is mostly paid.
Cards come with Pro
For the customer who would rather tap while you are winding the lead in than go looking for their bank details.
A leg now, the rest on fitting day
Pro splits a booked door into stages with their own due dates. That sits on the job once it exists, not on your booking page.

As you grow with us you can go Pro.
Common questions.
They can. The repair sits on your page with a set price and a duration, and they take the earliest slot you can genuinely make. Where nothing fits, it arrives as a request for you to accept or decline.
Yes, because it is a service like any other, with its own price and duration. The DHF runs a Level 2 Award in Industrial & Garage Door Safety for installation and maintenance engineers, and what your visit covers is yours to define.
As named options on one estimate: an up and over door, an insulated sectional, and a sectional with an operator and handsets. The customer accepts online by typing their name. Named options come with Pro.
Bookables does not order doors and does not count what is in the container. The accepted quote becomes a real job with no date yet, the thread stays open, and you give it a day once the door is with you.
It does. Every visit files against the property, so the spring, the cone and the operator you fitted are in front of you before the second call about the same door.
Yes. The free plan covers 200 bookings a month with no card required, and recording cash or a bank transfer by hand costs nothing on any plan.
