Send Professional Locksmith Invoices From Your Phone in Seconds.

A handwritten receipt on a torn notepad. A Venmo request with no description. A text message saying that'll be $175. These are not invoices. They do not protect you in a dispute. They do not satisfy your accountant. They do not make you look like a professional operation. ServiceHQ generates a complete professional invoice on every locksmith job automatically — with line items, sales tax, your company name and logo, the customer's signed estimate, and the job photos. All from your phone. All in seconds.

What a Professional Locksmith Invoice Looks Like

A professional locksmith invoice has seven things. Most locksmiths have zero of them on their current receipts.

  1. Your company name, address, and phone number
  2. Customer name and address
  3. Date of service and job number
  4. Line items showing exactly what was done and what each item costs
  5. Sales tax calculated correctly for the state and job type
  6. Total amount and payment method used
  7. Your customer's signature on the estimate before work began

ServiceHQ generates all seven automatically on every job. Customer gets a copy by email. You keep a permanent copy in your job history.

Digital Estimates Before the Job — Invoices After

The most expensive mistake a locksmith can make is completing a job without a signed estimate. Customer agrees verbally to $200. Job is done. Now they say they only agreed to $100. You have no proof. You eat the difference or lose the customer.

ServiceHQ fixes this with digital estimate signing. Before you start any job you build a line item estimate on your phone and send it to the customer. They review it and sign with their finger. The signed estimate with their name, timestamp, and IP address is attached to the job permanently.

When the job is complete ServiceHQ converts the signed estimate into a final invoice automatically. No disputes. No he-said-she-said.

A signed digital estimate is the single best protection against chargebacks and payment disputes. ServiceHQ creates one on every job automatically.

Automatic Sales Tax on Every Invoice

Sales tax for locksmiths is complicated. Different states tax labor differently. Key duplication is taxed differently than a lockout call. Installation on a house is taxed differently than installation on a car. Getting it wrong means you either owe back taxes or you are overcharging your customers.

ServiceHQ calculates the correct sales tax on every invoice automatically. When a partner tech selects the job type ServiceHQ looks up the state from the ZIP code and applies the correct tax rule. Covers all 50 states including the new Washington state rules effective October 2025 and California's lump sum rule.

Job Photos Attached to Every Invoice

Before photos. After photos. Damage documentation. Parts used. All attached to the job and available on the invoice. A customer files a chargeback claiming the lock was already broken when you arrived. You have a timestamped before photo showing the lock was intact. Case closed.

Everything on One Invoice

Every ServiceHQ invoice shows: company name and logo, invoice number and date, customer name and address, service description with line items, labor amount, parts amount, sales tax calculated automatically, total amount, payment method used, signed estimate attached, before and after photos attached. All generated automatically. Zero manual data entry.
