Purchasing from us

We can only ship to limited countries (please check countries on checkout of web site). By submitting your order you are allowing us to use your personal details for the purposes of supplying goods (including passing your details onto couriers and other subcontractors). We will not use your details for other purposes without asking your consent and you may ask that your details are removed from our system by writing to the address above.

Contract

All orders placed by you are on the basis of these Terms and Conditions and are subject to acceptance by us by delivery of the goods to you at which point a legally binding contract is constituted between us. The processing of your payment and acknowledgment of your order does not constitute legal acceptance of your order.

Price & Payment

The price payable for the goods you order is as set out on our web site at the time you place your order plus any charges for delivery and insurance as set out in the order form or by subsequent email from us.

Occasionally an error may occur with our web site and goods may be incorrectly priced in which circumstances we will not be obliged to supply the goods at the incorrect price.

Subject to clause 2.5, we must receive payment for the whole of the price of the goods you order, and any applicable charges for delivery, before your order can be processed unless we have agreed otherwise in advance in writing.

You must inform us in writing as soon as a relevant employee is no longer authorised by you to place and receive orders.

Once you have gone through our checkout, you will be diverted to our protected secure online payment system with our credit card processor, Secure Trading. Your credit card information will be held in protected SSL secure servers, at Secure Trading, we will not have access to your full credit card details, and we will not release information regarding your credit card. Your credit card details will only be used for transaction authorised by you. We currently only accept VISA, MasterCard and VISA Delta.

The purchaser is liable for any additional local state, country taxes, import duties or copyright levies.

Whilst orders to the UK's 'Highlands & Islands' will be processed as part of the UK 'mainland' they are subject to additional delivery charges which will be notified to you subsequent to your order and payment being processed. 'Highlands & Islands' are defined as, but not limited to, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, the Isle of Wight, Northern Ireland and the Scottish Highlands.

Delivery & Title

We will deliver the goods in accordance with your order usually within the stated delivery time but certainly within 30 days. In the unlikely event that we do not make the goods available to you within 30 days of accepting your order you will have the option of cancelling your order by notifying us accordingly prior to delivery. A valid signature will be required on collection or delivery. In the unlikely event that you have not received all the goods within the stated delivery time, you must notify us immediately. You must not schedule or commence any installation or fitting until after you have received your order and checked all the goods for any defects or missing parts.

You must therefore make your own arrangements at your own risk if the relevant item needs to be transported from the delivery location. 

You must do all that you reasonably can to enable delivery to take place at the given time and place. If you delay delivery, or delivery fails because you have not taken appropriate steps, we will try to arrange for an alternative delivery date within 30 days of the failed delivery. If delivery fails as a result of circumstances within your reasonable control, the cost of any re-delivery shall be borne by you. If we are unable to arrange a date for re-delivery we may cancel your order and refund to you the price that you have paid for the goods, less the failed delivery costs.

Without prejudice to Clause 3.3, upon delivery of the goods to you, the goods shall be at your risk. In spite of delivery having been made, title in the goods shall not pass to you until you have paid the price for the goods in full and no other sums whatsoever shall be due to us from you. Until title in the goods passes from us, you shall hold the goods on a fiduciary basis as bailee and shall store the goods at your own cost separately from all other goods in your possession and marked in such a way that they are clearly identified as our property.

Availability

While we endeavour to hold sufficient stock to meet all orders, if we have insufficient stock to supply or deliver the goods ordered and paid for by you, we may refund you the price paid for such goods as soon as possible and in any case within 30 days or, in the case of an account customer, we may, in our absolute discretion, as soon as possible raise a credit to offset the amount invoiced to you.

We always ask that you check your order thoroughly on receipt from the courier and not to sign for or accept the item if the exterior packaging appears extensively damaged.
