You can review our full returns policy with complete information on our returns page.

To begin a return, you must first contact us so we can establish the reasoning and process accordingly. At this stage you will be given an RMA number which is imperative for a return to be accepted. Be aware it is only valid for 30 days. You will then need to ship the products back to us by a prepaid and insured carrier method. When received, we will process the return and any refunds and/or replacement products. For full details, see our returns page.

An RMA (Return Materials Authorization) number is a reference number used for the returning of products to us. Be advised we will not accept any return without one, neither will we process any refunds and/or replacement products.
The RMA number allows us to track and store all details about a return and speeds up the returns process. RMA numbers can only be obtained by contacting us and are only valid for 30 days. Any products returned after this time will be refused. For more information, see our returns page.

Once your return has been received and processed, your refund can take 3-5 working days to complete. This is the time taken by banks, so unfortunately we have no control over this timescale.

We don’t accept returns for the following products:

• Bespoke and custom-made product(s) (i.e. custom webbing designs, post finishes, bespoke sizes, etc);
• Product(s) that have been used, installed or altered from their original state.

For more information, see our returns page.

Unfortunately, we cannot accept returns of any bespoke product if incorrectly ordered by a customer. However, if we have made a mistake then we will accept the return and replace accordingly. For more information, see our returns page.

If you are an UK registered business and have incorrectly ordered product(s) then any return will be subject to a 25% restocking fee, plus the cost of outbound delivery. This excludes any bespoke product(s), which are not eligible for return. We charge this fee because of the substantial cost we undertake when accepting a return.
