Lockout calls that go to someone else

A tenant is locked out in the hallway at 1 AM with a dying phone.
Today

Your voicemail picks up. They hang up and dial the next locksmith before the battery goes.

With QuickVOC

The agent answers right away, gets the address, name and callback number, quotes your home lockout rate and sends you a Telegram alert.

You are halfway through rekeying a front door when the phone rings.
Today

You let it ring. The caller just bought a condo and wanted every lock changed, easy scheduled work you never hear about.

With QuickVOC

The agent quotes your per-cylinder rekey price, asks how many locks, and books a time that fits them.

Lockout callers ask "how much?" before anything else.
Today

With no one to answer, they keep dialing. Some end up with an outfit that quotes low on the phone and charges more at the door.

With QuickVOC

The agent quotes the flat rate you set, straight from your own price list. It never makes up a number.

Engine running, doors locked? It moves first.

A running car with the doors locked or a child in the back seat can't wait until morning. These words put the call on the urgent path, and you get an emergency alert with the address the moment the call ends. Start with this list and change it whenever you like.

locked out outsidecar still runningchild inside the carpet inside the carsafety hazard
  • Asks where first

    Location comes before anything else: street address, cross streets or the parking lot, as the caller describes it.

  • Gets the car details

    Year, make and model on every car lockout, so you know what you're opening before anyone heads out.

  • Offers an opening or takes a message

    If you have an open slot it offers the soonest one. Otherwise it takes a detailed message. It never promises an arrival time.

  • Puts you on the line when asked

    A caller who asks for a person is transferred while your team is on duty. After hours it takes the message and you get the alert.

What locksmiths want to know

Something else on your mind? Talk to us.

What does a locksmith answering service from QuickVOC do?
It answers your line day and night in your company name. The AI receptionist asks where the caller is, gets their name and callback number, and sorts car, home and business lockouts from rekeys and smart-lock jobs. It quotes from your price list, books scheduled work into open times, and saves every call with a recording, transcript and summary.
What does it ask on a car lockout?
Where the car is, then the year, make and model, the caller's name and a callback number. If the engine is running or a child or pet is inside, the call goes on the urgent path and you get an emergency Telegram alert with the location as soon as it ends. It quotes your car lockout rate from your list and never promises an arrival time.
Does the agent verify that the caller owns the car or lives there?
No. Proof of ownership or residence is checked by your locksmith on site, not by the agent. It collects the name, location and callback number so you have a record of the call. If you add your ID policy to its notes, it tells callers what to have ready, such as a photo ID with the address or the car's registration.
Is it a true 24 hour answering service for locksmiths?
Yes. It answers at any hour, weekends and holidays included. After hours it takes the full details, flags urgent lockouts and alerts you on Telegram, so you decide which night calls to run. Daytime work like rekeys and smart-lock installs gets booked into your open times, with the job created in Housecall Pro when it's connected.
How much does an AI receptionist for locksmiths cost?
Starter is $149 a month for 300 minutes of AI calls, a business number, website chat, Thumbtack and Google LSA leads, and the full CRM. Pro is $299 a month for 1,000 minutes, three numbers and ten team members. Business is $549 a month for 2,500 minutes when call volume is high. Start with a 3-day free trial that includes 25 minutes, no credit card required.
Can a caller talk to a real person?
Yes. If the caller asks for a person while your team is on duty, the agent transfers the call. After hours it takes a detailed message and alerts you. It also recognizes repeat callers by phone number, like property managers who call you every month, and it can answer in Spanish or any of the 15 languages you turn on.
