Example: a filled Aluminium Fabricator Receipt
A landlord orders six sliding windows and a glass door for a new flat. He pays 60% today so materials can be bought, and the receipt shows the balance due on installation.
Sliding window, 4ft x 4ft (bronze): 6 x ₦85,000 = ₦510,000
Casement door with glass: 1 x ₦180,000 = ₦180,000
Installation and sealing: 1 x ₦60,000 = ₦60,000
Total: ₦750,000. These amounts are examples; use your own prices.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Collecting the deposit without writing the balance
- Writing "aluminium work" instead of listing windows and doors with sizes
- Not stating whether installation is included
- Not writing how the customer paid (cash, transfer or POS)
Need a different document?
- Asking for payment before the job or delivery? Use an aluminium fabricator invoice.
- Customer paying only part of the total today? Use the free part payment receipt.
How aluminium window and door fabricators use a receipt
Aluminium jobs are paid in stages. The client pays a deposit so you can buy profiles and glass, then pays the balance when the windows and doors are fixed. Each payment needs its own receipt, because these jobs often run for weeks and the client may pay through a site engineer.
Writing the items on an aluminium fabricator receipt
Use one line for each thing the customer paid for, named the way your customers know it, for example Sliding window, 4ft x 4ft, Casement door with glass, Installation and sealing. Enter the quantity and the price for one unit, and the generator works out each line and the total. Then choose how the customer paid, cash, transfer or POS, because that is the first thing anyone checks when a payment is questioned.
Tips for aluminium window and door fabricators
- Write the window or door size, colour and glass type on each line, so the receipt matches what was measured.
- Show the amount paid today and the balance left on every receipt.
- Write the site address, since many fabricators run several sites at once.
After the customer pays
Send the receipt as soon as the money arrives, while the customer is still with you or on the phone. Keep a copy: at the end of the day, compare your receipts with your POS slips and bank alerts, so you know exactly what came in and nothing is missed.
