Locksmith estimate follow-ups
Twenty examples for a rekey and hardware, using $640 as a made-up price. Ten are the schedule. Ten are for a date, a smaller job, approval, or a later check-back. Lock bids after a move or a break-in either happen today or get postponed once the house feels calm again.
Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.
Where this bid stalls
Lock bids after a move or a break-in either happen today or get postponed once the house feels calm again. Everyone who still has a key has to be told. That is often the real delay.
What the example price means
The price is the cylinders and the visit. A smart lock is a different product and a different failure mode. Included: rekeying the six exterior doors to one key, and two new deadbolts. Left out: a smart lock, and the garage man-door closer. Do not leave a construction key working after the rekey.
When to send them
If the keys are compromised, this is a same-day job. If it is a planned hardware upgrade, it can wait for the finish they want. The default schedule is still day 2, day 5, and day 10. Day 10 is the last email. Same-day notes are optional. The customer sees your business name and the address followups@quotelasso.com. A reply comes to your inbox and the remaining follow-ups stop.
