Inventory management for carpentry and joinery shops
Sheet material is expensive, hardware is fiddly, and the most valuable offcuts stand unfindable in the board store: in carpentry and joinery, the overview of material and offcuts directly decides the margin. Lavesy tracks boards, edging, hardware and consumables, assigns withdrawals to projects and reports in time what needs reordering.
Sound familiar?
- Opened boards and offcuts nobody can find – so new stock gets bought.
- Hardware (hinges, drawer runners, handles) in dozens of variants without overview.
- Glue, lacquer and abrasives are empty exactly when you need them.
- At project end, nobody knows what material was actually used.
How Lavesy helps
Boards & offcuts findable
Run the board store with bins – record offcuts with dimensions and location.
Hardware with minimum stock
Common hinges and runners report themselves before the box is empty.
Withdrawals per project
Assign material withdrawals to a job – for costing and order.
Consumables automatic
Glue, lacquer, abrasives: reorder drafts with your regular supplier.
How it works
- 1Create board store, hardware cabinet and machine room as storage locations.
- 2Label material with QR codes – record offcuts with remaining dimensions.
- 3Scan withdrawals with a phone and assign them to the project.
- 4Review reorders and send them to the supplier.
Frequently asked questions
Can we record board offcuts sensibly?
Yes. Record offcuts with remaining dimensions and bin – at the next cutting plan you find them via search instead of buying new.
Can withdrawals be assigned to a job?
Yes, withdrawals can be assigned to projects – so you see per job what material was used.
How much effort is the initial setup in a workshop?
Manageable: start with the common hardware and the board store, create items via import or the AI assistant, and refine stock as you go.
