You're at the homeowner's kitchen table with a tape and a folder of glass options. Sashline is the opening sheet that turns that walk-through into a whole-house number before you get up from the chair. Rough in each window and door as its own priced line, and the house draws and totals itself as you go — no missed openings, no napkin math, no money left on the table. WALK THE HOUSE, ROUGH IN EVERY OPENING Capture each window or door as one opening on the board: rough-opening width by height with the install allowance auto-applied, operating style (double-hung, casement, slider, patio door, entry, French), the glass-and-frame package (Low-E, argon, grid, finish), and install scope (retrofit or full-frame). Every opening draws itself head-on as a to-scale elevation, so the sheet reads the house as real openings, not an anonymous list. THE WHOLE-HOUSE ROLL-UP THAT STACKS AS YOU GO The title-block at the foot of the board re-rolls live: openings counted, running daylight area, and the whole-house subtotal. Add an opening and the number moves with it. Nothing is guessed and nothing is forgotten — the openings you measured are the openings you priced. GOOD-BETTER-BEST IN ONE TAP The free tool prices one package. Turn on good-better-best and one tap re-prices the entire board — flip the whole house from Low-E to triple-pane and every per-opening price and the whole-house subtotal re-ink together. That's the spread the homeowner signs at the kitchen table, not a number you have to redo in the truck. OPERATING STYLES, SPEC'D RIGHT Double-hung, casement, slider, awning, picture, patio door, entry, French — each style carries its own elevation glyph and its own glazing options, because a picture window doesn't price like a patio door. The rough-opening allowance is applied for you, so the size you quote is the size that fits. MEASURED TO SIGNED Move every house down the board: measured, quoted, good-better-best, signed. See the state of the board at a glance — openings drawn, houses quoted, this month's signed — so you know which kitchen tables still owe you a close. THE ELEVATION ABSTRACT On-device insights read the whole board: close rate, openings per sale, price per opening, the good-better-best tier mix, and a list of any opening still missing a glass-and-frame package, so nothing ships un-priced. Every number stays on your phone. PRIVATE AND PORTABLE Every house lives on your device. No employer login, no account, works fully offline. Your book of openings is yours and goes with you when you change companies. Sashline is an independent quoting tool for in-home window and door sales reps and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any window, door, or fenestration brand. Subscription unlocks unlimited openings with the whole-house elevation saved, the one-tap good-better-best whole-board tier swap, and the branded whole-house PDF plus Elevation insights. Monthly and annual plans include a 30-day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple ID; subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel in Settings.
