Never miss a locksmith service call in Stouffville
Phone rings first4.2s response30-day guarantee
The phone rings during a transponder programming on a 2015 Honda. You can't break off mid-program. The caller leaves a vague voicemail about a lockout and you call back in twenty minutes. They booked someone else in five.
Three things locksmiths push back on
“lockout pricing is sensitive, AI will say the wrong number”
Avidra never quotes a lockout. The AI asks the location, the type of lock, and whether it's a residential or auto lockout. Pricing happens on your callback.
“what if the caller needs immediate dispatch, the bot will delay them”
The first response fires in under five seconds, whether by voice or by SMS. The caller knows you're real and on the way. That's faster than a voicemail rollover, faster than most answering services.
“I'm a one-person shop, I can't take more than 4 calls a day”
Then Avidra filters the inbox for you. You only see the leads that match what you actually work on. Auto lockouts in your service area, rekey requests within driving distance, the bookings that fit your schedule.
How Avidra answers your calls
Step 1 · AI picks up
When the phone rings, Avidra picks up before voicemail can. The greeting is yours, recorded or text-to-speech, your call.
Step 2 · Qualifies the caller live
Qualifying happens on the call. The caller doesn't have to repeat anything to a human later.
Step 3 · Transfers to you when they ask, or summarizes when they don't
If the caller asks for a human, Avidra transfers to your cell or your dispatcher. If they don't, the AI finishes the intake.
Step 4 · Lead summary lands on your phone
You get a text recap of the call within seconds of it ending. Same lead-summary format as the SMS-only setup.
Two ways to set it up
Two setup paths. Path one is forwarding: your existing business number stays the front door, calls ring to your phone, and Avidra only catches the unanswered ones. Path two is direct: the Avidra number is the front door, AI picks up every call live, and it transfers to your cell when the caller asks for a human. Most one-truck shops use path one. Larger shops with reception coverage usually move to path two.
Free tier includes both. AI voice and SMS text-back are both in the $0 floor, so neither pickup mode costs extra.
What Avidra does and doesn't
Avidra answers calls live with AI voice, or texts missed callers back if you'd rather. It runs your intake script. It captures jobs and relays messages to your customers when you ask. What it doesn't do: write your invoices, schedule your techs, replace your dispatcher, or pull customer history from your CRM.
It never quotes a lockout price. It doesn't verify ID. It doesn't dispatch a tech. The text captures location and lock type. Everything else happens on your callback.
The math on your missed calls
The numbers on a locksmith your size.
7 calls/week missed$150 avg job$1,050 / week$4,550 / month$54,600 / year
73% of callers don't leave a voicemail. They call the next locksmith on Google.
Avidra catches them in 4.2 seconds.
Calls locksmiths in Stouffville actually take
Here's what your line catches on a normal week. Deadbolt install on a new exterior door. Smart lock install for a short-term rental. Residential lockout at the front door. Master key system for a small office. Each is the same opportunity. The phone is the bottleneck.
After hours, the calls shift. The patience is shorter and the stakes are higher. Commercial lockout before opening shift. Post-break-in rekey before the homeowner leaves the property. Fast pickup is the difference between the job and a callback that never gets returned.
What the year looks like
Lockouts spike in summer (slammed-door season) and after long weekends. Rekey work is steady year-round with a small bump in moving season May through August.
Volume changes by season. Pickup rate shouldn't. Avidra fires the text-back the same way in February as it does in July, on a slow Tuesday or during a heat-advisory week.
Getting Avidra answering your phone
Setup is two minutes. You connect your business number to Avidra, either by porting it or by setting your existing line to ring the Avidra number. The AI picks up from then on. You edit the default intake script to sound like your office, and the first real call uses your voice and your business name.
Most owners are live before lunch on the day they sign up. The honest test is to call your own line and have the AI answer. The questions land. The summary fires. You see the intake on your phone.
Why live pickup beats voicemail
Voicemail is where service leads go to die. A homeowner who hits voicemail at 7pm and gets a callback at 9am has already booked the next name on the list. Avidra picks up live, so the conversation starts in the first ring. By the time the caller would have hung up on voicemail, the AI has already captured the caller's name and address along with the basics of the call. The follow-up callback then lands into a warm conversation, not a cold one.
Common questions
What about rekey requests?
Rekey intake captures the number of doors, lock types, and the reason for the rekey.
Can it differentiate residential, commercial, and auto lockouts?
Yes. The first question branches the intake based on lockout type.
Can it book a commercial master-key consultation?
It captures the request. The site visit and consultation are yours.
Can it filter out scam calls?
Scam callers usually don't reply to the text. Avidra captures only callers who responded with real intake answers.
Will it work for after-hours auto lockouts?
Yes. After-hours scripts can stay active or pause depending on your preference.
