A5 household binder inserts for family, emergency and home details

This A5 household binder is a collection of 24 undated insert pages that fit A5 and Half Letter ring binders as well as discbound planners. It brings who is in your family, who to call in an emergency, health notes, utility accounts, trusted trades and home records together in one peaceful place. You receive an A5 PDF and a Half Letter PDF, along with print-and-cut versions that place two pages on each A4 or US Letter sheet. It downloads instantly and nothing is shipped.

When a babysitter, grandparent or you yourself needs an answer fast, it is right there.

How the A5 household binder brings peace of mind

Write down what your family may need at short notice: the key emergency numbers, a calling order for 12 people, a contact who lives out of the area, places to meet and a family code word. Each person gets a medical spread covering allergies, as many as 10 medicines, ongoing conditions, any aids or devices and anything a helper must understand, next to pages for doctors, your pharmacy, the closest hospital and six types of insurance.

The home pages record utilities, where every shut-off is, the trades you call, filter sizes, paint shades, upkeep jobs, appliances and the location of key papers, all without ever writing a password or a full number. And because it lives inside your everyday planner, the sitter sheet, pet details, emergency kit checklist and review log travel with you.

Who this family binder is for

• Anyone carrying an A5 6-ring binder, a Half Letter binder or a junior discbound planner who would like family and emergency details stored beside the weekly pages
• Families who want a sitter, a grandparent or a house sitter to locate phone numbers, allergies and shut-offs quickly
• Caregivers tracking the medicines and doctors of a child, partner or aging parent in a single compact book
• Renters and new homeowners getting utilities, trades and paperwork in order after a move

Design and printing details

• Elegant and minimal: white pages with soft blush pink details that go easy on ink
• Roomy margins, so nothing is trimmed by a home printer
• Two portrait page sizes, A5 at 148 by 210 mm and Half Letter at 5.5 by 8.5 inches, plus print-and-cut sheets for A4 and US Letter
• No dates, so begin whenever you like and print a page again when details change
• There are no pages for passwords. Instead you record where things are, and sensitive details such as PINs, passwords and complete card, ID or account numbers stay out of the binder
• Margins that alternate: the wider 14 mm binding edge sits on the left of odd pages and the right of even ones, with 8 mm at the outside
• A dashed line down the middle and small cut ticks on the print-and-cut sheets, so a single cut gives you two pages
• Keep it in a binder or on a clipboard, or have a print shop spiral bind it

Good to know

• These PDFs are made to be printed. They are not a hyperlinked digital planner, though most note taking apps will let you import the file and write on it.
• This is a digital product, so nothing physical is shipped.
• Printed colors can look a little different from your screen.
• For use in your own home only. Please keep the files to yourself and do not resell them.
• Digital files cannot be returned. If something will not open or print properly, email us and we will help right away.
• Ring spacing varies from brand to brand, so the pages carry no punch marks. Punch the wide inner margin with your own A5 6-hole, junior or disc punch.
• These pages organize information about your household. They do not offer medical, legal, insurance or professional safety advice. If something urgent happens, call your local emergency services before anything else.
• Store it somewhere secure, and leave passwords, PINs and complete ID, card or account numbers out of it.
