When locksmiths quote
Emergency work is rarely quoted in writing, but planned work should be: upgrading every lock in a house, fitting window locks, master key systems for a landlord, or access control for a small business. A written quote looks professional and lets the customer compare like with like.
Itemise by door and window
List each door and window with what you'll fit, for example:
- "Front door: replace euro cylinder with TS007 3-star anti-snap"
- "Back door: fit BS3621 5-lever mortice deadlock"
- "Ground-floor windows: fit key-operated window locks × 6"
This makes it easy for the customer to drop items if they're on a budget, and shows exactly where the money goes.
Explain the standards
Customers don't know what "anti-snap" or "BS3621" means, but they do care whether their insurer will accept it. A short note in the terms, such as "All locks meet the standards commonly required by home insurers", helps. Ask the customer to check their own policy.
Keys and access
Say how many keys are included, whether extra keys cost more, and whether the locks are keyed alike. For commercial and landlord work, describe any master key system clearly.
Validity
The "valid until" date defaults to 30 days. Change it if product prices are about to change.
Frequently asked questions
Should I quote for emergency call-outs?
Give a clear price over the phone before you set off, then put it on the invoice. Written quotes suit planned work.
How do I quote for a whole house?
List each door and window with the product and price, then the total.
Do I need a deposit?
For large or commercial jobs with ordered parts, a deposit is reasonable.
