Where garage-door work leaks

When the door
fails, the call is
already urgent.

Garage doors don't fail gently. A loud bang at 5am, a car trapped, school run in 30 minutes. The first business that picks up wins the job — usually within 90 seconds.

01 · MORNING RUSH

7am, door won't open

Spring broke overnight. Customer needs the car out for work. They Google, call the first three operators. Whoever picks up usually wins the job.

02 · TRAPPED CARS

Vehicle stuck inside

Highest urgency category. AI flags it and routes to on-call tech immediately, with caller's address and "trapped" tag in the alert.

03 · NEW INSTALL QUOTES

$3k–$8k install quotes

Renovation customers shop around for weeks. Without a Day 3 SMS, the quote you wrote disappears into the renovation paperwork pile.

04 · INSURANCE CLAIMS

Storm-damage claims

After hail or wind events, insurance claim work piles up. Capturing report-ready intake on first call cuts admin hours significantly.

Garage door workflow

Triage by fault.
Route by urgency.
Quote afterwards.

Configured for the urgency profile of garage door and automatic gate calls — most are time-pressed, some are catastrophic.

01

Fault triage in 15 seconds

"Loud bang + won't open" = spring. "Won't respond to remote" = electronics/motor. "Door drops" = cable. "Stops halfway" = sensor. The AI asks the right one-line question to classify and respond appropriately.

Garage door FAQ

Common questions.

Can the AI tell different faults apart?

Yes. The qualification script asks about the sound, motor behaviour, door position and whether the remote works. Loud bang + door won't move = likely spring. No motor noise = electronics/power. Door drops part-way = cable. Each routes differently.

What if a car is trapped?

Trapped-car keywords are flagged as the highest priority escalation. Immediate SMS to the on-call tech, ETA SMS to the customer, and a "TRAPPED" tag in the CRM job so it gets prioritised over routine work.

Does it handle automatic gates and intercoms?

Yes. Automatic sliding gates, swing gates, boom gates, intercom and access systems all use the same workflow with gate-specific qualification (gate type, motor brand if known, length/weight, residential or commercial).

Will it give safety advice?

Basic safety only — e.g. "don't try to force a door with a broken spring" or "use the manual release if you need to get the car out and feel comfortable doing so." Detailed repair guidance is never given; the AI routes the job to a technician.

Does it work for storm/insurance work?

Yes. Insurance claim intake collects insurer name, claim number (if known), damage description, photos via SMS and preferred contact times. Post-event call surges (hail, severe weather) are handled by the AI scaling overflow capture.
