Create my accountSoftware for metalworkers & locksmiths
Every metalworker & locksmith,a rock-solid file.
You don’t install decoration: you install what holds a body, and what protects belongings. A guardrail that gives way, a forced lock: that day, you’re the one judged. Here is the file that keeps the proof of both your safeties, from the work to the fixing.
Free to start, no card.
Software shouldn’t just help you run your business. It should strengthen your credibility with the best clients, and protect your interests the day a job gets tense.
Where a job tips over
In metalwork, the risk isn’t in the quote.
It’s in what your work holds: a body, or a burglar. Four moments decide whether your work protects you or exposes you, and they settle in advance, while they’re still a photo in a file.
The guardrail must hold a body
What you install isn’t decorative: it holds someone who leans on it or falls. The standard sets the height and the force it must withstand. If it gives way, it’s a fall, and it’s the installer who’s judged, criminally and civilly.
Sound in the workshop, but held by the fixing
A perfect guardrail can give way at the anchor: a poorly cleaned hole halves the pull-out resistance. The line between your work and the substrate plays out there. Without a record of the fixing and the state of the wall, the pull-out comes back to you.
The lock judged on the day of the break-in
A lock, an armoured door are judged at the break-in. And your client’s insurance conditions their payout on a certified lock: fitting a non-listed model makes them lose their cover. What you installed must be provable.
Call-outs, under the eye of inspection
Emergency locksmithing is the most inspected of home call-out trades. The quote given before the work, even in an emergency, is not optional: a clear, recorded quote sets you apart from the practices that damage the trade’s reputation.
None of these moments is fate. Each one becomes harmless the moment it’s photographed and dated at the right time.
Trust is won before you seal.
Trusting someone with what protects their family and belongings, for a client, is an act of faith. He can’t judge your welding or your fixing once the work is installed, so he judges what he can see: a clear quote, tidy past work, a business you can find again. At a similar price, the metalworker who shows his work and his seriousness comes before the one who’s a number at the bottom of a quote.
Your public page and your projects don’t manufacture that rigour. They make it visible, for the client hesitating to trust you with their safety.
The day a life or a theft puts your work in question, it’s all already there.
The rigour that wins you the job is the same that covers you when it goes wrong. What you installed, the fixing and anchoring of the guardrail, the state of the substrate, the lock’s certification, the quote given before the work: gathered and dated, from quote to handover.
A guardrail that gives way, and it’s the installer who’s judged, criminally. The day the expert looks for the cause, you don’t open a box of photos: you open the file, and it shows work and fixing done by the book.
One single way of working, two benefits: it wins you the job, then it covers you when safety is at stake.
Workshop and jobs, one clear head.
Your jobs, your workshop, your hours and your margins sit in one place, up to date. You see whether a job is paying you while it runs, not at the end of the year.
And on the job, everything is captured on the spot: photos of the anchor before finishing, checked points, even offline.
What we get asked
The questions you’re already asking.
Who is liable if a guardrail gives way?
The company that installed it, criminally included. The courts convicted the installing company, not the victim’s employer, after a fall caused by a guardrail assembled without respecting the manufacturer’s instructions. Installing by the book isn’t enough: you have to be able to show it. Dated photos of the work and its fixing make the difference.
A pulled-out guardrail, is it my work or the substrate?
Often it’s the fixing, not the sizing: a poorly cleaned hole can halve the pull-out resistance, and a fragile or cracked substrate gives way under load. It’s the most debated point in expert reports. Keeping a record of the substrate, the type of anchor and the installation is what covers you.
Am I liable if my client is burgled?
What you install affects their cover: most insurers condition a burglary payout on a certified lock. If you replace a cylinder with a non-listed model, your client can lose their guarantee. Hence the value of recording what you actually installed and telling them clearly.
Must I give a quote before an emergency call-out?
Yes. Emergency locksmithing is the most inspected of home call-out trades, and the quote given before the work, even in an emergency, is an obligation. A clear quote accepted before acting protects you as much as it protects the client, and sets you apart from the practices that damage the trade’s reputation.
Do I have to replace my quoting software?
The quote isn’t the end, it’s the first piece of your file. We start from the quote-contract and hold the thread through to installation, where your liability is heaviest: the safety of people and property.
I work alone, is it for me?
Yes. A lone metalworker carries the same liability as a big firm when a guardrail gives way. When no one can vouch for you, your dated photos do.
The common ground
What secures your project doesn't depend on your trade.
The principle is the same across every job you take on: the agreement holds from the quote, the proof files itself as the work goes, the handover closes cleanly. That's what we call a Secure Contract.
