24/7 answering and core lead intake
AI receptionist for locksmith companies
Answer the lockout call at any hour
Nevermiss provides a consistent home-service intake: caller name, confirmed callback number, reason for the call, and service address when a visit is involved. This guide maps that shipped foundation to your trade and identifies details your team may still need to confirm.
$99/month · 250 minutes · You can build and review your setup now. New activation and payment are temporarily paused while production verification finishes.
Why phone coverage matters for locksmith companies
A lockout lead is both urgent and mobile. The caller may be outside in bad weather, beside a vehicle, or closing a business late at night. They need a response now, but you still need an accurate location, callback number, and the type of lockout before deciding whether to take the job. The receptionist should also avoid quoting or bypass guidance outside your policy.
Nevermiss combines the availability of a 24/7 answering service with a conversational virtual receptionist. Ava works from the services, hours, service area, and call rules you approve. She records what the caller says, follows your escalation policy, and leaves technical judgment and commitments to your team.
Calls this workflow should prepare for
Ava can discuss work in the service list you approve. Your team still confirms technical fit, pricing, and commitments.
- Home, apartment, vehicle, and business lockouts
- Keys locked in a vehicle or trunk
- Broken-key extraction and damaged-lock calls
- Move-in, landlord, and property-manager rekeys
- Lock replacement, upgrade, and smart-lock inquiries
- Safe, commercial, and master-key requests routed by policy

Child, pet, fire, or medical danger
A receptionist tells the caller to contact emergency services first, then records the call.
Standard lockout
A receptionist captures location, lockout type, and timing and can transfer based on your service-area rules.
Planned rekey or installation
A receptionist records the property, project, and preferred estimate time as a standard appointment lead.
Target workflow · illustrative, not a recording or guarantee
What a strong intake could sound like
Caller
“I am locked out of my house and it is freezing. My keys are inside.”
Recommended intake
A receptionist gets the exact address, confirms no one is in danger, records the callback number, and explains that normal proof-of-residence checks apply.
What you get
You receive a location-ready lockout lead instead of trying to reconstruct an urgent voicemail while driving.

Frequently asked questions
What does Nevermiss reliably capture for locksmith companies?
The current home-service flow collects the caller’s name, a confirmed callback number, the reason for the call, and a service address when the work requires an on-site visit. It may hear other details in conversation, but the trade-specific checklist on this page is planning guidance rather than a set of guaranteed structured fields.
Does Nevermiss include a prebuilt locksmiths intake script?
Not today. Ava uses the services, hours, service area, excluded work, transfer settings, and business Q&A you review. The core home-service intake is shared across trades, so your team should confirm any specialized technical details it needs.
How should locksmith companies handle urgent calls?
Define observable safety conditions and an operating response before go-live. Nevermiss directs immediate danger to emergency services, can mark urgent work, and can attempt one configured after-hours destination for an active hazard. It does not diagnose the problem or run a trade-specific dispatch tree.
What does Nevermiss cost for locksmith companies?
$99 per month includes 250 minutes and every currently available Ava feature. New self-serve activation and payment are temporarily paused.
Does Nevermiss replace my existing business number?
No. You keep the number customers already know and use call forwarding to decide when Ava answers. You can turn forwarding off without porting the number.
Can Ava answer Spanish-speaking callers?
Yes. English and Spanish are included. Ava follows the language the caller uses and saves the captured lead in the secure dashboard.
