Open Doors for landscaping and lawn care
Tighter routes, cleaner quotes, crews that know the plan.
Customers request work from your site and you only accept addresses you cover. Big projects start with an estimate, every crew sees its day on a map, and routes are rebuilt in a click when the weather changes.
The landscaper whose profit disappears on the road
You run crews that mow, plant, trim and build. In season you are flat out; the margin on a lawn is small, so every extra mile on the road hurts. You price bigger garden projects from site walks, juggle crews of two or three, and when it rains the whole week has to move.
What you are juggling this week
- Thin margins eaten by drive time
- Crews, not individuals
- Garden projects that need a quote
- Rain that moves the week
- Customers at the edge of your area
What breaks, and what Open Doors does about it
These are the things landscaping and lawn care companies tell us cost them jobs, evenings and money. Each one maps to a part of Open Doors Field Services.
What you are living with“My crews spend more time driving than mowing.”
Route optimisation reorders a day of visits for the shortest drive from the crew start point to its end point. Nothing changes until you apply it.
What you are living with“People keep asking me to quote gardens on the other side of the county.”
Set service areas by radius or postcode, with an optional travel fee and extra travel time. Out of area requests are flagged before anyone drives.
What you are living with“A patio job is three visits and a skip, and it lives in my notebook.”
Estimate the project, convert it to a job when it is approved, then schedule each stage as its own visit on the same job.
What you are living with“It rains and I spend the evening ringing everyone.”
Reschedule visits from the app and let notifications tell customers the new date. Date only bookings let you set the exact time later.
What you are living with“I need two people on most jobs.”
Assign several staff to a visit. Find availability only suggests times when the whole crew is free.

One job, seen from every side
Follow a single job from the first request to the review. Each step shows whose screen you are looking at: your customer, your office or your technician.
They book on your site at any hour. The address is checked against your service areas first.
Less time driving, more time working
Pick a team member and a day. Open Doors reorders the visits you unlock using drive times, working hours, travel buffers and existing bookings, from where their day starts to where it ends. You see the proposed route and drive time before anything moves.
One technician, one day
Example route. Locked visits stay put, unlocked ones can move.
Lawn rounds
Pack each crew day with route optimisation and give customers a date or a window.
Garden projects
Estimate first, then a job with a visit for each stage of the build.
Seasonal work
Hedge cutting, leaf clearance and planting as services with add-ons customers can pick online.
Crew dispatch
Several staff per visit, each with their own route start and end point.
