From measured openings to fitted internal doors
This is an illustrative workflow using the existing shared tools in Trade PA. You supply the findings and prices; Eve helps with the admin.
Record the selected doors and supply responsibility
The customer has selected doors, but existing linings, ironmongery and trimming affect what you need to allow for. Save the customer, property and reported work in the job record.
Check linings, clearances and ironmongery
Record what you have checked before you commit to the work:
- Opening measurements checked on site
- Door supply and ironmongery specification
- Condition of existing linings
- Trimming, finishing and disposal scope
Separate fitting, hardware and excluded decorating
Separate fitting labour from supplied doors and hardware. Note decorating and lining repairs that are outside the agreed price. Review the draft, send it when ready and add the agreed visit to your diary.
Record fitted hardware and any extra doors
Keep a record of the hardware and finished scope. Quote separately for any extra doors added during the job.

Your plumbing business
Call answering is a purchasable add-on. It is not included in your standard app plan or free trial. This example shows the enquiry you receive after an unanswered call: the customer’s request and callback details. You still confirm the appointment and price. How the add-on works →
Guided example using fictional customers. Nothing is sent, booked, purchased or saved to a real account. These are the app’s real screens, using a separate example workspace.
Ready to hand over your own admin?
Start with the core app. Call answering must be purchased and set up separately.
More work in your day
For the jobs carpenters actually take on.
Keep the details that change the scope, the visit and the final bill.
Door hanging
Keep each opening’s measurements and door specification in the notes. Include the agreed trimming and hardware in your quote.
Second-fix carpentry
Quote the rooms, skirting and architraves you have measured. State who supplies materials and handles the final decoration.
Repairs and adjustments
Record sticking doors or damaged trim as specific tasks, then invoice the work completed rather than a vague repair allowance.
A few things to know.
Will it produce cutting lists from drawings?
Not as part of this workflow. You verify dimensions and quantities and supply the materials list. Eve can organise those details into the job and quote.
Is this a separate app for carpenters?
No. It is the same Trade PA app, with examples showing how the shared tools fit this trade. Use your own scope, prices and job details to make it fit the way you work.
What should I try first?
Create a test customer and a draft for “hang replacement internal doors”. Add your own scope and prices, check the wording, then explore the appointment and invoice tools. You can review the draft without sending it.
