AllDayDesk

AI phone answering for locksmiths

An AI Receptionist Built for Locksmith Calls

AllDayDesk answers your locksmith phone around the clock. It asks what kind of lock problem the caller has, where the job is, and whether it's a home, business, or vehicle. It books lock service calls you've set up and takes messages for everything else, so you decide the rest.

You don't need new software skills or a second phone line. You keep your number, and AllDayDesk answers it when you don't pick up.

01

Type in your business name or website. AllDayDesk pulls in your services, service area, and hours, then shows you the details so you can fix anything that's off before a caller ever hears it.

02

2. Hear your sample

Listen to a personalized sample of your receptionist answering a call for your locksmith business. This sample doesn't book anything real — it just shows you how your calls will sound.

03

3. Connect your phone

Keep your current number and forward your calls to AllDayDesk. The steps depend on your phone service, and the setup flow walks you through it. After that, every call you miss gets answered.

What your receptionist does on a locksmith call

Locksmith calls don't follow business hours. House lockouts come in at night. Rekey requests come in while you're already on a job. And every caller wants the same thing first: to know someone can actually come out. The problem is you can't answer while you're picking a lock on a porch across town. AllDayDesk picks up when you can't, gathers the details that matter for a locksmith — the service address, the lock type, and whether it's a home, business, or vehicle — and books the lock service calls you've made bookable. Anything that needs your judgment, like a smart lock that's acting up or a commercial lock change with questions, becomes a clear message you read when you're free.

For a lockout, it asks whether it's a home, business, or vehicle, then gets the exact service address and the caller's name. For a rekey, it asks how many doors and what kind of locks. If the caller asks for a price you haven't listed, it says the owner will confirm and takes a message. It never promises an arrival time, quotes a price it doesn't have, or gives lock advice over the phone. If someone describes an emergency, it tells them to call 911 — it doesn't triage. Everything it collects shows up in your dashboard as a transcript and a short summary.

House lockout

The receptionist gets the caller's name, the full service address, and whether anyone else has a key. If you've made lock service calls bookable with open hours, it offers a time and books it. If not, it takes the details as a message so you can call back.

Business lockout

It asks for the business name, address, and the caller's role there. It doesn't promise entry or discuss access rules — it collects the details and books or passes the request to you, since commercial entry is your call to make.

Rekey request

It asks how many doors, whether the locks are deadbolts or knob locks, and if the caller just moved in or lost keys. That's usually enough for you to price the job before you call back.

Broken key

It finds out whether the key broke in the lock or just snapped in half, and whether it's a house, business, or vehicle lock. Key extraction details go to you; the receptionist doesn't guess at the fix.

Smart lock issue

It doesn't troubleshoot apps, batteries, or codes. It takes the lock brand if the caller knows it, the address, and a description of the problem, then sends it to you as a message.

Commercial lock change

It collects the business address, how many doors, and what kind of locks are going in. Questions about master systems or access control stay with you — the receptionist tells the caller you'll discuss those directly.

Locksmiths: your questions answered

Can it book a lockout call while I'm on another job?

Yes, if you've set up bookable services and your availability in the AllDayDesk calendar. The receptionist offers your open times and books the call with the caller's name and service address. If you haven't set up booking yet, it takes a full message instead, so nothing gets promised that you can't keep.

What happens when someone calls at 2 AM locked out?

The receptionist answers, collects their name, address, and lock details, and either books a time from your availability or takes a message. It doesn't promise an arrival time or mark anything as urgent — you see the request in your dashboard and decide how fast to respond.

Will it quote prices over the phone?

It quotes only the prices you've saved in your business details. If a caller asks about a job you haven't priced, like a commercial lock change with unknown doors, it says the owner will confirm the cost and takes down the details for your callback.

How does it handle proof that someone lives or works there?

It doesn't verify identity or decide who gets let in — that's always yours. It collects the caller's name, the address, and their description of the situation, and you check access when you arrive, the same way you would with any call that came in by phone.

Can it tell the difference between a rekey and a full replacement?

It asks the questions that help you tell: how many doors, whether the locks are deadbolts or knobs, and why the caller wants the change. It doesn't recommend one over the other. The rekey-versus-replace decision stays with you, and the details it gathers make your callback quick.

Where do bookings show up?

New appointments go into the AllDayDesk dashboard calendar by default, once you've set up your services and availability. If you'd rather see them in Google Calendar, you can connect your Google account in Settings after setup. It doesn't connect to dispatch tools or other outside software, so you'll manage appointments from the dashboard or your connected Google Calendar.
