Locksmith Scheduling

Balance emergency lockouts with your booked schedule

Someone's locked out of their car at 9 PM. A property manager needs rekeying at 10 AM. A dealership wants transponder keys cut by end of day. Your work swings between urgent emergencies and planned appointments across residential, commercial, and automotive — and Arrively keeps all of it organized with real drive times.

The Problem

Sound familiar?

Emergency lockouts disrupt everything

Lockouts are your highest-margin work, but they show up with zero notice. Taking them means bumping scheduled rekeying jobs. Ignoring them means losing $150+ calls to a competitor.

After-hours calls are a scheduling nightmare

You offer 24/7 emergency service because that's where the money is. But managing after-hours availability alongside your daytime schedule means you're always on and never sure when you're off.

Residential, commercial, and automotive all day

A residential rekey takes 30 minutes. A commercial master key system takes half a day. An automotive transponder key takes an hour with programming. You're context-switching between completely different job types constantly.

Drive time between emergency calls is unpredictable

You finish a lockout on the east side and the next call is a commercial panic bar repair across town. Without drive-time awareness, you're quoting ETAs you can't hit.

How Arrively Helps

Built for how you actually work

Emergency slots that protect your schedule

Reserve buffer blocks for lockout calls. When an emergency comes in, Arrively finds the nearest open buffer, calculates drive time from your current location, and books it without disrupting your scheduled work.

After-hours availability settings

Set your 24/7 emergency hours separately from your daytime schedule. After-hours callers see available emergency times, and you control how many after-hours calls you accept per night.

Service types for every lock job

Define residential rekey (30 min), commercial master system (4 hrs), automotive transponder (1 hr), safe opening (2 hrs), and more. Each gets the right time block and pricing.

Accurate ETAs based on real drive time

When a lockout call comes in, Arrively calculates your ETA from your current location. You give the customer an honest arrival time — and you actually hit it.
