For door and hardware contractors
Start from the hardware schedule, not a blank estimate.
Your jobs arrive as a door schedule and a set of hardware headings. Rundown reads them, builds the openings and the estimate, and then tracks what has been ordered, received and installed.
The problem
Where generic tools leave you on your own.
- 01
Retyping the architect's schedule
Hardware sets, quantities per door, manufacturers, models and finishes, keyed in by hand from a PDF.
- 02
Orders spread across vendors
One job, four distributors, a dozen expected dates. Finding out what is blocking which door means walking the warehouse.
- 03
GC billing has its own rules
Deposits, progress billing against a contract value and net terms, where most tools assume one invoice at the end.
How Rundown fits
What changes when the software knows your trade.
Hardware schedule import
Upload a schedule in the usual 08 71 00 layout as PDF, CSV, XLSX or pasted text. Review the parsed sets and doors in a mapping table, then confirm.
Openings and complianceEstimates grouped by opening
Each door gets its own group and subtotal. Hardware sets are saved for the next job.
EstimatesPOs split by vendor
Approve the job and draft POs are created for each vendor, with expected dates and partial receiving.
Price book and vendorsA procurement board
Every open PO line by expected date, grouped by job, so the question "what are we waiting on" has a screen.
Price book and vendorsProgress billing
Milestone invoices from the schedule on the estimate, with contract value, billed, paid and remaining.
InvoicingFire door inspections as a plan
Annual inspections with NFPA 80 checklist items, generated as visits per opening.
Openings and compliance
Not here yet: submittal packages, retainage and change orders. Change orders and retainage are planned. Lead time is tracked per item and per PO line.
Questions
Rundown for door hardware.
What formats does the hardware schedule import accept?
Pasted text, PDF, CSV and XLSX. The parser returns openings, hardware sets and line items with a confidence level on each field, and nothing is created until you confirm the mapping.
Can I price from my own distributor accounts?
Yes, on Pro and above. Connect your accounts with ADI, Wesco, Banner and IML, or add your own vendors and keep their costs in the price book.
