Schedules

Hardware, from a set on the schedule to a priced, chosen product

A hardware set on the door schedule -- "HW-04" -- is four or five words until something turns it into products you can buy and a price you can bid. Each set breaks into its items, and each item moves through the same four states, visible at a glance rather than buried in a cell note.

How it works

  1. 01

    Read from the schedule

    Hardware set tables are extracted from the spec book, or the door schedule's hardware column is matched against it directly.

  2. 02

    Linked to a product

    Each item in a set is structured into a product: model number, manufacturer, finish, specifications.

  3. 03

    Priced

    Six vendor sites are checked for a price, with an AI web search as a fallback when none of them has the part. A manual price can always be entered instead.

  4. 04

    Selected

    One price per product is marked primary. Changing it updates every door that references the set, and says so before you confirm.

What it does

Four states, not a wall of text
unlinked, linked, price found, price selected -- a chip shows which one a set is in without opening it.
A price finder for the parts you cannot match
Qualified Hardware, Trudoor, National Lock Supply, B&H Depot, Epivots and CS Hardware are checked in order; an AI web search runs when none of them has it.
One export, priced
The hardware catalogue exports as a PDF or Excel takeoff, one line per product at its chosen price -- part of the estimating package alongside the door and finish schedules.

Common questions

What does each chip state mean?

Unlinked: read from the schedule, not yet matched to a product. Linked: matched, no price. Price found: at least one price exists, none chosen. Price selected: a primary price is set and carried into the estimate.

Where do the prices come from?

Six vendor sites are checked automatically, with an AI web search as a fallback. You can also enter a price by hand at any time, and a manual entry is never overwritten by a later automatic search.

Does choosing a price change more than one row?

Yes, on purpose. A primary price applies to every door referencing that hardware set, and the app tells you that before you confirm the change.
