Garage door businesses manage a mix of new installations, automation upgrades, repairs, and servicing - each with its own workflow. HiveSuite gives garage door installers one platform to manage site surveys, detailed equipment quotes, scheduling, parts inventory, deposit invoicing, and customer records. Whether you are a sole trader or running a team of engineers, HiveSuite keeps your operations organised.
HiveSuite is UK-built, priced in GBP including VAT, and designed for how UK trade businesses actually work. No per-user pricing, no feature locks - every plan includes everything from day one.
Garage door installations start with a survey to measure the opening, assess the electrics, and discuss options with the customer. HiveSuite lets you schedule surveys as separate job types, then build a detailed quote on-site. Add line items for the door, motor, springs, remotes, installation labour, and any building work required.
HiveAssist, the built-in AI assistant, drafts quote line items from a short description of the work. You can send multi-option quotes so the customer can choose between different door styles, materials, or automation levels.
Quotes are branded with your business name and logo and can be accepted online with a single click. Once accepted, raise a deposit invoice to cover the door order before installation day.
HivePlanner is a visual drag-and-drop calendar that lets you schedule surveys, installations, and repair callouts. Assign engineers to specific jobs and they see the full details, customer address, and one-tap directions on the HiveCrew app. Conflict detection prevents double-bookings. If plans change, drag the job to a new slot and your team is updated automatically. The Map view in HivePlanner puts the day or week of jobs on a map as pins coloured by status, so you can see which jobs sit close together before you plan the day.
Every job has Cost Lines showing its revenue, costs and margin, and crew can log materials from HiveCrew, so you can see what an installation or repair really made. Quotes have cost prices and a profitability panel before you send them. Each customer keeps their sites, past jobs, quotes and invoices, so when a door is due a service or a customer calls with a fault you can see what was fitted and when. See job costing software.
Garage door businesses stock doors, motors, springs, remotes, tracks, and other hardware. HiveSuite lets you track stock levels, set low-stock alerts, and raise purchase orders for your suppliers. Log parts used against each job so you always know your true costs.
Customers expect to pay a deposit when ordering a garage door - you need to order the door before you can install it. HiveSuite makes this simple: set a deposit percentage on the quote and a deposit invoice is created when it is accepted, then the balance invoice follows once the deposit is paid. The invoice reminder board tracks every outstanding payment at a glance.
The HiveSuite customer portal gives your customers a branded login where they can view their quote, approve the order, check installation progress, and pay invoices - all without needing to call you.
Installing heavy doors and springs means commercial clients often ask for RAMS. Generate RAMS (risk assessments and method statements) from the job using HiveSuite's templates, pre-filled with the customer and site, or build your own in Certificate Studio. Store documents you reuse in the document library, attach them to jobs so your team sees them in HiveCrew, and share them with clients through the Customer Portal. See RAMS software.
HiveSuite is designed from the ground up for UK trade businesses - GBP pricing that includes VAT and workflows that match how UK garage door businesses actually operate. Plans start from just £34.99 per month with a 30-day free trial and no credit card required. Every plan includes every feature.

overheard in the hive
"Moving from WhatsApp to HiveSuite was the best move I've made for my locksmith business."
The automation handles my website leads and quotes while I'm out on jobs, and HiveIntel found over £300 in unpaid invoices I'd completely forgotten about.
"I can literally ask 'who hasn't paid me yet' and get the answer in seconds."
Typos? Doesn't matter. If you're running everything from your phone, this just works.
"HiveSuite is by far the easiest management tool I've used for a small business."
Working directly with the developers to shape new features has made a real difference to how I run things.

Look for software where the engineer finishes the job and the invoice comes from the same record, with a pay link the customer can use straight away. In HiveSuite you raise the invoice from the job or quote on your phone and, with Stripe connected, text the pay link before you leave. On Android, job updates, photos and completion keep working with no signal and sync on reconnect; raising an invoice by hand and taking payment need a connection, and on iPhone HiveSuite is a web app that needs a signal.
