Please contact our sales or customer service team for further information on individual products. All products are warranted against manufacturing defects, except for all moving parts (mechanisms, castors, drawers).

As a result, our cut-off times for next day delivery are one hour earlier than with a standard order placed securely over the internet. Furthermore occasionally we will contact you after a telephone order has been placed to request additional information, such as a copy of a utility bill or other proof of address – until we have this information we will be unable to process your order, and if it is not forthcoming within approximately 10 business days the order will be automatically refunded.
