For garage door companies

Garage door software for same-day calls and quotes with options.

Same-day service booked online, a quote with opener options the homeowner picks from on their phone, photos of the install on the job, and the invoice paid before you drive off. The core of WorkBench FSM is free.

How it works

1

Same-day, without the phone tag

The booking page shows real open times, so a stuck door gets a slot today without a call. The job lands on the schedule with the details.

2

Options they pick themselves

Quote the repair with the opener models as toggles the homeowner switches on or off, and they sign on their phone. The accepted version becomes the job.

3

Paid and reviewed

Send the invoice from the driveway and the client pays from the link. When the payment lands, WorkBench asks them for a review.

What's included

All of it is in Core, the free plan.

Online booking

An embeddable booking widget for your website that shows real availability. Jobs that need a look first go through an approval loop instead of landing straight on the calendar.

Scheduling & dispatch

Month, week, and day views with drag-to-schedule, time blocks, and per-tech filtering. The calendar is the command center, not a read-only report.

Quotes with e-signature

Line items, optional add-ons the client can toggle, discounts, and deposits. Clients review and sign from their phone; accepted quotes convert to jobs in one click.

Jobs with notes & photos

Every job carries its history: status, notes, and before/after photos from the field, so the office and the crew see the same thing.

Card & ACH built in

Every invoice, quote, and booking can take card or bank payments — 2.95% + 30¢ per card transaction and 0.70%, $1–$8 per ACH transfer company-paid, or a client service fee of 3.50% + 30¢ card and 0.75%, $1–$8 ACH. No monthly fees, no minimums.

Review requests

After a payment lands, WorkBench asks the happy client for a review and points them at your Google listing while the goodwill is fresh.

From the field

Owners who run their day on WorkBench.

“I used to juggle texts, a spreadsheet, and a separate card reader. Now a customer books online, I send the quote from my phone, and they pay the invoice from a link. One app instead of five.”

“Install season is a sprint. WorkBench keeps every house on the route in order, the crew knows exactly where to go, and deposits are in before we ever pull out a ladder.”

Questions

Can a quote offer a few opener models?
Yes. Optional line items are toggles the client switches on or off before signing, so one quote covers the chain drive, the belt drive, and the smart opener.
Can clients book same-day service online?
Yes. The booking page shows your real availability, including today's open slots, and the booking lands on the calendar with the confirmation sent.
Do photos of the install go on the job?
Yes. Before-and-after photos from the phone live on the job with the notes, where the office and the crew can see them.
Does it ask for reviews?
Yes. After a payment lands, WorkBench asks the client for a review and links to your Google listing.
Is WorkBench really free for a garage door company?
Yes. The core plan is free with full access for a small team, not a trial, with no card and no clock. Extra users and the optional add-ons are flat monthly prices; the pricing page and the free plan page have the current numbers.

Free to start. Full access, not a trial.
