The Company shall be under no liability for any defect or failure in the goods arising from any drawing, design or specification supplied by the Customer. The Company shall be under no liability if the defect or failure, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, arises from wilful damage, misuse, negligence by the Customer or any third party, failure to follow the Company's installation or maintenance instructions, or alteration or repair of the goods without the Company's prior written approval. The Company shall be under no liability if the price for the goods has not been paid by the due date for payment.

MAnufacturing tolerance

Due to the various manufacturing processes and/or base material it is not possible to replicate each individual item exactly.  Acceptable variation in dimensions and finish will occur between products and finishes. In placing an order, the Customer accepts this inherent process variation.


 

 

FINISHES

For products that are finished in Patine or Black, especially if used externally, some tarnish or corrosion must be expected especially where two surfaces are in close proximity or have rubbed together or where the lacquer has broken down. The maintenance instructions issued by the Company must be followed which will minimise any tarnish or corrosion and help maintain the finish.  Providing the maintenance instructions are adhered to, the Patine and Black finishes are guaranteed for 2 years against excessive tarnish or corrosion and 10 years for any product with a PVD finish.  No liability is accepted for corrosion or tarnish where waxed, lacquered, or plated materials that have not undergone thePVD treatment, are used externally or in areas of high humidity or pollution. Section 1. above sets out the Company’s obligation in the event of a breach of this warranty.


quotations

 

Any quotation, estimate or price given by the Company is given in good faith but constitutes only an invitation to the Customer to make an offer and any order of the Customer placed with the Company pursuant of a quotation, estimate or price given by the Company or otherwise is not binding on the Company until such time as the order is accepted by the Company.

Failure to do so, the customer shall be liable for the full price of the Goods as set out on the order confirmation.

Until such time as an order is accepted by the Company, prices are subject to alteration without notice. The Customer is liable to the Company for Value Added Tax and any other tax or duty relating to the contract. Where prices or discounts are dependant on minimum quantity of items purchased or order values, even if this is to be achieved over a period of time, then should any subsequent order or orders not result in reaching the minimum required or the minimum is reached but subsequent product returns take the totals below the minimum, then the Company reserves the right to revise the price charged on related invoices and make a charge to the customer for the value of the resulting price difference. Payment can be made with cash or any other means of cleared funds that is acceptable to the Company. If payment is made by cheque not supported by a cheque guarantee card, the Company requires the cheque to be cleared before Goods can be released.
