End of a long day and you still can't say what you actually pocketed after the trip charge, key blanks, fuel, and your helper's cut. Keyledger nets it out for you. Built around the locksmith service call itself - not a generic invoice line. Every job is typed to the work you really do, and every record carries the money fields the trade actually has. What you get: - Type every call to a real locksmith job - Rekey, Master-Key System, Lockout, Install, Automotive Key, Commercial Access Control - so your numbers are organized by the work, not by a one-size-fits-all category. - Track a rekey the way you remember it: number of cylinders and a keyed-alike toggle, so a 1-cylinder swap and a 6-cylinder keyed-alike job aren't the same line. Master-key systems (GMK, master, change keys) get their own high-margin job type. - Note the parts that matter: keyway and brand (Schlage SC1, Kwikset KW1, or a restricted keyway like Medeco / Mul-T-Lock) and the ANSI deadbolt grade (Grade 1/2/3) right on the Install or Rekey ticket - not just a bare dollar amount. - Capture the upcharges the trade really has: an after-hours / emergency premium on a lockout, and automotive split by all-keys-lost vs spare, clone vs program, transponder/flip vs prox/push-to-start. Commercial gets door and hardware count, exit-device / closer / access-control recognition, and a recurring service-agreement marker. - See REAL take-home per call: the invoice minus key-blank and hardware cost, minus the fuel / mileage cost of the run (a real cost, kept separate from the trip charge you bill), minus an optional helper or sub split. This is cost-netting - invoice minus your costs - not a percentage of the sale. - Know your money by job-type and by week - which work actually pays, at a glance, without paperwork back at the shop. - Capture a call in seconds from the truck - set your trip charge and rates once and every job inherits them. - Keep every job's history forever, on your device. Stop paying and you still have every past record - we never hold your books hostage. - No upsell ads, no business-coaching nag messages, no forced payment processing skimming a fee off your work. Why locksmiths switch to it: the big contractor CRMs list 'locksmith' as one trade among twenty, with zero rekey/master-key/lockout/automotive/commercial fields and no real take-home math - then they lock you out of your own past records the day you stop paying. Keyledger inverts all of that: a locksmith-native job taxonomy, a Take-Home Breakdown that nets each call to invoice minus materials minus fuel minus split, and on-device storage you keep for good. "Another subscription that'll jack the price and lock me out of my records"? Not here. Your data lives on your device and stays yours whether you subscribe or not, the price is fair and stable, and a one-time Forever Access option means you never have to subscribe at all. Start with a 7-day free trial, then choose annual, monthly, or one-time Forever Access - cancel anytime. A locksmith billing $90-$300 a call earns it back on the first logged trip charge.
