What is fire door contractor software?

Fire door contractor software gives contractors control of the whole business around fire doors - quoting, procurement, purchase orders, job costing, team scheduling, client documents and compliance records - across every project. Automate provides this as one connected operating system, with manufacturing, installation and inspection handled in their own dedicated modules on the same door record.

Can contractors track project profitability?

Yes. Automate provides a live job costing dashboard showing costs, invoices and profit margins for every active project. Track team time, material costs and supplier invoices automatically with instant profitability analysis.

How do contractors manage procurement?

Create material quotes, generate supplier purchase orders and send directly to vendors. Track delivery status and manage supplier invoices. All procurement is tracked from quote through order to invoice with complete audit trails.

Can contractors generate fire door quotes?

Yes. Automate generates professional fire door quotes in seconds from survey data. Send quotes to clients by email and track acceptance, rejection or expiry. Role-based access keeps pricing margins confidential from field teams.

How do contractors manage teams across projects?

Schedule installation and inspection teams across multiple projects with calendar integration. Track team availability, location and working time. Manage communications and task assignments from desktop or mobile.

How does contractor software support Golden Thread compliance?

Every door managed in Automate builds its own QR-linked Golden Thread record from manufacture through installation, inspection and maintenance. Contractors can organise the evidence captured in those workflows for handover. They remain responsible for checking accuracy, missing information and the duties applicable to the project.

Does Automate include manufacturing, installation and inspection tools?

Yes - each is a dedicated module on the same platform. This page covers the business-management layer; the manufacturing, installation and inspection software pages explain each discipline in depth.

Management Software for Full Business Control

Contractor software should provide visibility across projects, teams, money and compliance.

The Disciplines Behind the Business

Manufacturing, installation and inspection are each a discipline in their own right, with dedicated modules on the platform. This page covers the business layer; each discipline has its own in-depth page.

Manufacturing

Door Builder, parts catalogue, workshop controller, procurement and QA - the factory record every door starts with.

Fire door manufacturing software

Installation

RAMS, assembly sheets, site evidence, sign-offs and handover - captured on site against the same door record.

Fire door installation software

Inspection

Component-based digital inspections, defect flags, instant reports and remedials tracked to closure.

Fire door inspection software

Fire Door Contractor Software

Built for the Way Contracting Businesses Actually Run

Generic job-management tools know nothing about fire doors, and single-purpose inspection apps know nothing about running a business. Automate sits in between: the quote, the purchase order, the site team and the inspection all reference the same door - so commercial control and compliance are two views of one record.

Money You Can See

Costs, supplier invoices and team time roll up into a live margin per job. Consequently, profitability is known while the project is running - not discovered at the year end.

Teams You Can Place

Schedule installers and inspectors across sites with calendar sync, track working time and location, and keep communication in one place.

Documents Where They Belong

Quotes, POs, RAMS, reports and handover packs sit against the client and the project, so nothing lives only in an inbox.

Compliance Without Extra Admin

Every door builds its own Golden Thread as the work happens. The contractor hands over evidence, not a promise - and the duties behind that evidence are set out in our fire door regulations and requirements guide.

In short, if you are looking for contractor software that runs the entire operation - from quote through manufacture, installation and ongoing compliance - Automate delivers it as one operating system.
