Garage Door Software for Same-Day Service.
Emergency dispatch with SMS paging, per-door equipment history, warranty tracking, and one-tap mobile invoicing for garage door techs.
The all-in-one garage door repair platform for operators who want to grow.
ServeToro is garage door service software built for same-day service and install shops. Emergency dispatch with SMS paging, per-door equipment history, warranty tracking through Warranty Pro, and one-tap mobile invoicing that gets the tech paid before they pull out of the driveway. Emergency dispatch is the workflow that keeps garage-door shops in business — a broken torsion spring at 5:47 p.m. means a homeowner can't get their car out to daycare tomorrow, and the shop that answers the SMS fastest wins. The dispatch board queues emergencies by priority, SMS-pages the closest available tech, and gives the customer a live-ETA link before the office even calls back. Spring / opener / panel parts pricing sits in a flat-rate garage-door pricebook: torsion springs by wire gauge and length, LiftMaster / Genie / Chamberlain openers by horsepower and battery-backup, insulated vs. non-insulated panels by R-value, rollers, cables, safety sensors, keypads — every SKU with a preset install price so quotes come off the truck in three minutes. Warranty tracking (through Warranty Pro) captures the door's install date, opener serial, spring cycle-count, and manufacturer warranty window so a callback in year two auto-flags as covered or billable. Garage door service software should feel like the tech, the office, and the homeowner are all reading from the same page — because they are.
