Why locksmiths use this invoice template.
A locksmith's day is mostly short jobs in unexpected places. A 2 AM lockout in a parking lot. A morning rekey for a property manager. A safe install at a jeweller. Twenty-five master keys to cut for a hotel. The invoice has to be issued on-site, paid in cash or card immediately, and the customer needs a receipt for their insurance or expense records. Anything that delays this workflow loses you the payment.
This free locksmith invoice template handles all of that. Editable line items for lockout service, key cutting (per key or per cylinder), rekey, master key system, safe install or open, emergency rate. Tax / sales tax / VAT calculates automatically. PDF downloads to your phone in seconds. Send on WhatsApp or print on a portable receipt printer if that's what the customer wants.
Made free by Decker — flat-priced locksmith software. Decker's paid product handles every customer with the master key system records, every property with multi-year service history, every recurring property-manager contract auto-generating jobs, and emergency dispatch with WhatsApp ETA to the customer. $19/month flat for solo locksmiths.
Common line items + typical rates for a locksmith invoice in 2026.
If you've ever wondered "am I charging enough?" or "what should I put on my locksmith invoice?" — here's the working locksmith's reference. Use it to sanity-check your rates and double-check you're not leaving line items off the bill.
Standard locksmith invoice line items
Most locksmiths bill some combination of these on every job: callout fee (often flat-rate), labor (per hour or per lock), parts (locks, cylinders, keys, smart lock units), after-hours surcharge, emergency rate, weekend premium. The locksmith invoice template above includes preset buttons for each so you don't have to type them every time.
Typical locksmith rates by region (2026)
Rates vary widely by city and experience level, but here's the working range most locksmiths charge:
- United States: $50–$200 callout, $25–$50 per lock rekey, $150–$300 smart lock install, after-hours surcharge 50–100%. Sales tax varies by state (0%–10%).
- United Kingdom: £60–£150 callout, £40–£80 per lock change, plus VAT 20%.
- Australia & New Zealand: $75–$180 callout, $90–$160 rekey, plus GST 10%.
- Canada: CAD $70–$150 callout, plus GST/HST.
These are working averages, not legal advice. Your local market may differ. The locksmith invoice template on this page handles VAT, GST, sales tax and IVA automatically based on the country you select — and it's editable if your region has a non-standard rate.
Related terms locksmiths search for
If you arrived here looking for: locksmith bill, locksmith receipt, locksmith service invoice, lockout callout invoice, rekey service bill, key cutting receipt, smart lock install quote, padlock service invoice, master key system bill — they're all the same thing in practice. This locksmith invoice template generates whatever format your customer expects, all from one form. Pick "Invoice", "Quote", "Estimate" or "Receipt" as the document type in the form above — the PDF label changes accordingly.
When to charge a callout fee vs hourly rate
Industry standard for locksmith work: charge a fixed callout fee for the visit itself (covers your travel + first 30 minutes or 1 hour of work), then hourly beyond that. This is what most established locksmiths do — it stops the "5-minute job" from costing you a day's revenue. The free locksmith invoice template has separate fields for callout fee and labor so you can structure it that way without re-typing.
After-hours, weekend & emergency rates
Most locksmiths charge a premium of 50%–100% over standard rates for after-hours (typically after 6 PM weekdays), weekends and public holidays. Emergency callouts are sometimes flat-rate ($150–$250 in the US, £100–£200 in the UK) on top of standard labor. Add these as separate line items on your invoice so the customer sees exactly what the surcharge is for — easier conversation than burying it in the hourly rate.
Why this is the best locksmith invoice template for solo locksmiths and locksmith shops.
Locksmith invoicing is unique. Most jobs are short — under an hour. Most customers are paying on the spot (cash, card, sometimes Stripe link). The invoice IS the receipt. Anything that delays the payment or makes the customer think hurts the conversion. The template needs to work fast, look professional, and produce a PDF the customer trusts immediately.
This free locksmith invoice template was built for that workflow. Editable line items for the specific work locksmiths bill — lockout service, cylinder replacement, key cutting (per key or per cylinder), rekey, master key systems, safe install, safe open, automotive key codes, emergency callout rates. Tax calculates automatically (sales tax, VAT, GST — auto-detected by country). The PDF download is fast, looks professional, and the WhatsApp share button means the customer has the invoice + receipt on their phone before you've packed up the kit.
The PDF itself shows what a locksmith customer wants to see: your business name and contact info at top, the customer's name and the job site address (which often matters for insurance — like "lockout at 47 High Street, side door"), every line item priced and totaled, taxes calculated separately, and your payment instructions ("Pay via Stripe / cash received / etc.") at the foot.
Made free by Decker — flat-priced locksmith software. Decker's paid product handles what this free tool can't: every customer with the master key system records (which property, which doors, which key codes, when last serviced), every property manager with multi-year contract history, recurring rekey schedules for property managers auto-generating jobs, emergency dispatch with WhatsApp ETA to the lockout customer, and automatic invoice chasing on WhatsApp for the property manager invoices that take longer to pay.
Decker for locksmiths is $19 per month flat for solo locksmiths or $39 per month for locksmith shops up to ten people. No per-user fees. Learn about Decker for locksmiths.
Free invoice generator — FAQ.

Yes. The PDF is yours forever — no watermark, no fees. You enter your email at the download step so we can occasionally update you about Decker, our flat-priced locksmith software. Unsubscribe any time.
Can I bill emergency / out-of-hours rates differently?
Yes. Add a separate "Emergency callout rate" line item from the Quick Add menu (it's a preset), then use a higher rate. The PDF shows the emergency surcharge clearly itemized so the customer understands the bill.
Can I issue a receipt on the spot for cash jobs?
Yes — the template generates a PDF in your phone in under a minute. If the customer pays cash, just generate the PDF, share via WhatsApp or email, and you have a digital receipt for both of you. No printer needed.
Can I bill a property manager with multiple lock changes on one invoice?
Yes. Add as many line items as you need — one per cylinder, per door, per property if you want. Set Qty and Rate for each. The PDF totals it all on one bill the property manager can pay with one Stripe link.
Can I send the locksmith invoice via WhatsApp?
Yes. After PDF downloads, click "Share via WhatsApp" — opens WhatsApp with a pre-filled message and the invoice details. Most locksmiths do this on-scene. Customer pays via Stripe link on the same phone they read it on. For 2 AM lockouts, this is a huge time-saver.
