We don’t give business customers all the same rights as consumers 

For example, business customers can’t cancel their orders, they have different rights where there is a problem with a product and we don’t compensate them in the same way for losses caused by us or our products. Where a term applies just to businesses or just to consumers, this is clearly stated. You are a business customer if you are buying products wholly or mainly for use in connection with your trade, business, craft or profession, even if you are an individual.

We will never contract with you except in accordance with these terms and conditions of contract.

When you buy from us you are agreeing that:

If you are a business customer this is our entire agreement with you

If you are a business customer these terms constitute the entire agreement between us in relation to your purchase. You acknowledge that you have not relied on any statement, promise, representation, assurance or warranty made or given by us or on our behalf which is not set out in these terms and that you have no claim for innocent or negligent misrepresentation or negligent misstatement based on any statement in this agreement.

1. We only accept orders when we’ve checked them 

We will contact you to confirm we’ve received your order and we will have accepted your order when:

2. Sometimes we reject orders

Notwithstanding our confirmation to you of acknowledgement of your order sometimes we reject orders, for example, 

When this happens, we let you know as soon as possible and refund any sums you have paid.

We retain the right to reject any order entirely at our discretion.

3. We charge you when you order 

Unless we have an agreed charging process with you we will take payment for the goods subject to our right to reject the order at the point at which you place your order. The time when you place your order is 

If you are a business customer you have no set-off rights. If you are a business customer you must pay all amounts due to us under these terms in full without any set-off, counterclaim, deduction or withholding (other than any deduction or withholding of tax as required by law).

4. We charge interest on late payments

If we are unable to collect any payment you owe us we charge interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 8% a year above the Bank of England base rate from time to time. This interest accrues on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You pay us the interest together with any overdue amount. 

5. We pass on increases in VAT

If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.

6. We’re not responsible for delays outside our control 

If our supply of your product is delayed by an event outside our control, we contact you as soon as possible to let you know and do what we can to reduce the delay. As long as we do this, we won’t compensate you for the delay, but if the delay is likely to be substantial you can contact our Customer Service Team: [email protected] to end the contract and receive a refund for any products you have paid for in advance, but not received, less reasonable costs we have already incurred. 

Delivery Delays

We use third-party delivery organisations and are not responsible for their delays in effecting delivery. 

7. Products can vary slightly from their pictures 

A product’s true colour may not exactly match that shown on your device or in our marketing or its packaging may be slightly different. Because some of our products are handmade, all sizes, weights, capacities, dimensions and measurements indicated on our website can be out by up to 5%.

8. You’re responsible for making sure your measurements are accurate 

If we’re making or supplying the product to measurements you provide, you’re responsible for making sure those measurements are correct. Find information and tips on how to measure on our website and in our brochure or contact our Customer Service Team: [email protected].

9. We charge you if you don’t give us information we need or do preparatory work as agreed with us

We charge you additional sums if you don’t give us information we’ve asked for about how we can access your property for delivery, installation or to provide services or if you don’t do preparatory work for installation, as agreed with us. For example, we might need to re-deliver on another vehicle or with extra manpower or reschedule services.

10. If you are a consumer and you either bought online, by email order, or over the telephone you have a legal right to change your mind.

Your legal right to change your mind. For most of our products either bought online, by email order, or over the telephone you have a legal right to change your mind about your purchase and receive a refund of what you paid for it, including the delivery costs.

Please note that our delivery charges are not refundable if you decide to reject the goods.

You have to pay for services you received before you change your mind. If you bought a service we don’t refund you for the time you were receiving it before you told us you’d changed your mind. 

We reduce your refund if you have used or damaged a product. If you handle the product in a way which would not be acceptable in-store, we reduce your refund, to compensate us for its reduced value. For example, we reduce your refund if the product’s condition is not “as new”, price tags have been removed, the packaging is damaged or accessories are missing. In some cases, because of the way you have treated the product, no refund may be due. Our Customer Service Team: [email protected] can advise you on whether we’re likely to reduce your refund.

When and how we refund you. If your product is a service, digital content or goods that haven’t been delivered or that we’re collecting from you, we refund you as soon as possible and within 14 days of you telling us you’ve changed your mind. If your product is goods that you’re sending back to us, we refund you within 14 days of receiving them back from you (or receiving evidence you’ve sent them to us). We refund you by the method you used for payment. We don’t charge a fee for the refund.

Accoya

Accoya contains a small amount of acid. The acid can attack the surface of the springs and spirals in our spiral sash balances causing them to rust prematurely.
