Returns, Refunds & Replacements

Here at Cannock Gates, we really pride ourselves on the quality of the gates we produce and deliver, as well as the satisfaction of our customers. However, as we produce and deliver thousands of gates, there may be instances in which the odd customer may not be 100% satisfied with the products they receive.

In these extremely unlikely cases, we want to ensure that we do what we can to make sure you leave fully satisfied with our service and the products you receive. Firstly, if you are not happy with a product you have received from Cannock Gates, please inform us in writing over email (sales@cannockgates.co.uk) and please get in touch with our customer service team on 01543 462500. Please make sure to do this within 14 days of receiving the product to arrange the return and to discuss any other possible options.

To avoid any confusion and mix-ups regarding the return costs, we will require customers to agree a return cost with Cannock Gates in writing before returning the goods. This allows us to ensure we refund the correct amount should the goods be faulty. In addition to this, we also require an invoice or payment confirmation from the courier as proof of the cost to be refunded.

It is the customer’s responsibility to return all goods to the following address:

Cannock Gates Limited
Martindale
Hawks Green
Cannock
Staffordshire
WS11 7XT

Once you have spoken to our customer service team and agreed on a return (in writing), you need to ensure that the returning parcel includes a few things, namely: your product receipt, a covering note, contact details (including order number), and a reason for the return or exchange. Once we have safely received the goods, we will then issue a refund, replacement, or whatever you may have agreed with our customer service team.

The returned goods must come back to us unused and (wherever possible) be in the original packaging. We recommend that when you do buy any goods from us, you keep as much of the original packaging as possible – at least until you decide you are happy with the product.

Should the original packaging be unavailable for use, please pack the goods in a manner that would provide the same level of protection as the original packaging. Items that are being returned to us should be ‘as new’ and in a resaleable condition (unless there are extenuating circumstances that you have agreed with Cannock Gates beforehand).

We cannot guarantee returns after the 14 days mentioned above, any return requests received after this time will be considered on a case by case basis. In these instances, the customer will cover the cost of the return carriage and Cannock Gates also reserves the right to charge a restocking fee.

All gates and railings are covered against faulty workmanship with our guarantee (5-year guarantee for wooden gates and a 10-year guarantee for metal railings and metal gates). If you feel that your gates or railings need addressing under that guarantee, please see our information page on the Cannock Gates Workmanship Guarantee or get in touch.
