relating to fitness for purpose, merchantability or conditions of the
goods whether implied by Statute, Common Law or otherwise are excluded

the right to refuse or cancel any orders based on the incorrect price
whether or not the order has been confirmed.

Availability of Goods
All products are subject to availability and may be withdrawn at any time.
However it is our policy to contact you if a product is out of stock and
if you do not wish to proceed with the order or for any reason we cannot
supply the product we will arrange for the order to be cancelled. We offer
an extended range of products which are obtained directly from our suppliers.

delivery dates made by the suppliers’ own delivery services. It
is our policy to contact you to explain the stock and delivery situation
with these products. Again if you do not wish to proceed with the order,
we will arrange for it to be cancelled.
Delivery
Whilst every reasonable effort shall be made to keep any delivery date,
time of delivery shall not be of the essence and we shall not be liable
for any losses, costs, damages or expenses incurred by the Customer or
any other person or company arising directly or indirectly out of any
failure to meet any estimated delivery date. Unless otherwise agreed we
may deliver by installments. Should the Customer request for the delivery
to be by instalments a further agreed carriage charge will be applicable.
Failure by the Customer to pay for any installment or delivery when due
shall entitle us to withhold further deliveries and the Customer shall
be liable for any costs incurred by the Supplier relating to such Goods
which the Supplier is then entitled to withhold. Delivery of the Goods
shall be made to the Customer's address and the Customer shall make all
arrangements necessary to take delivery of the Goods whenever they are
tendered for delivery.
Time Limitations for Notification of claims
Damaged in Transit
As internal damage cannot always be identified on delivery, the Customer
must sign the drivers manifest as “unchecked”. Should any
damage be identified on opening the package, Security Hardware Limited must be advised
within 24 hours of the exact damage. It is imperative that the Customer
does not dispose of any of the packaging, as this will be required to
affect a claim against the carrier. The claim will be handled by Security Hardware Limited , and an arrangement will be made to collect the damaged goods
and replacements will be sent. We cannot accept any claims for damage
if the above time scales are not followed.
Shortages
It is the Customers responsibility to sign for the correct number of packages
that are delivered, the Customer is required to check that the number
of packages delivered equal the number of packages on the delivery drivers
manifest/consignment note. Any shortages must be noted on the drivers
manifest and it is the Customers responsibility to thereafter notify us
within 24 hours of delivery. Should the Customer be missing an item but
has signed for the correct number of packages. The Customer must notify
us within 24 hours of delivery. The Customer will be requested to provide
us with a copy of the invoice as well. The matter will be investigated
and the Customer will be informed of the decision.
Incorrect Goods
It is the Customers responsibility to notify us of any incorrect goods
supplied within 48 hours of delivery. If the items are not as ordered,
the Customer must not use the item. The Customer will also be required
to provide further information on what was received i.e. we may require
part numbers and a full description of what has been received. Should
there be any extenuating circumstances that have prohibited the Customer
to remain within the specified time frame; resolution will be by mutual
decision.
Non-Deliveries
We will not accept liability for goods lost in transit unless we are notified
within 5 days from the expected delivery date. This will be the date advised
on the Customers despatch note which is emailed to the Customer once the
items have left our warehouse. We shall accept no liability for shortages,
non-deliveries, incorrect goods and goods damaged on delivery outside
the reported timescales. Except when extenuating circumstances have prevented
notification within the reported timescale. The extenuating circumstances
must be by mutual agreement.
