a. Advise Decorlux of the details of the defect; and
b. Provide to Decorlux details of the purchase of the Goods and proof of purchase reasonably acceptable to Decorlux.
5.2 Service Fee
a. Decorlux will charge a $110.00 service fee to attend a client's premises to inspect Goods that are the subject of a Warranty claim.
b. The Service Fee will be refunded if the alleged defect is covered under this Warranty and the Warranty claim is made within 12 months of installation; or
c. If the alleged defect is not covered under this Warranty or by a consumer guarantee under the Australian Consumer Law, or a Warranty claim is made later than 12 months after installation, the service fee will not be refunded and the client will also be required to pay the cost of labour and parts.
5.3 Repair or replacement
If the Warranty or a consumer guarantee applies, Decorlux will arrange with the client for the rectification of the alleged defect to be carried out, or for new Goods to be installed. Decorlux will not be responsible for any costs incurred by the client in notifying Decorlux of the defect in the Goods.
5.4 No extension to Warranty period
Repairs carried out or replacements provided under this Warranty do not extend the relevant warranty period, and do not initiate a new warranty period. The warranty period for any replacement parts or new Goods installed will end together with the initial Warranty.
6. Things you should know
a. There will be gaps between the edge of your Blinds and your architraves, if your blinds are mounted on the inside on the window frame, meet in the corner, or butt together.
b. REVERSE ROLL – (OVER-ROLL)Decorlux does not guarantee reverse roll blinds. They are prone to rolling crookedly and may cause damage to edges. Reverse roll blinds may also 'spring-out' rather than rolling tightly against the tube.
c. Your windows may not be perfectly square and your Blinds may not always sit straight or perfectly flat if this is the case.
d. If you operate your Blinds up and down gently, this will help for the long term life of your Blinds.
e. Decorlux does not advise clients to install Roman Blinds on doors due to the fact that the height will take up the percentage of the doors and there is a chance you may brush your head against the bottom panel.
f. Venetian Blinds are not designed to be lifted up and down on a regular basis. To get the most life out of your Venetian Blinds, we therefore advise to open Venetian Blinds by tilting the slats horizontally rather than lifting the blinds completely.
g. It is required by law to have child safety locks installed with your blinds. All of Decorlux' installations are installed with child safety locks.
h. Subject to the Australian Consumer Law, Decorlux' responsibility under this Warranty will not exceed the purchase price of the Goods or their replacement.
i. The benefits given by this Warranty are in addition to other rights and remedies you may have under a law in relation to the goods to which the Warranty relates.
7. Australian Consumer Law
a. The Goods and their installation come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. Any exclusions in this Warranty are subject to the Australian Consumer Law, and this Warranty does not override or alter your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. The client is entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. The client is also entitled to have the Goods repaired or replaced if the Goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
b. Where a failure does not amount to a major failure, Decorlux will provide, at Decorlux' option, a repair, replacement or refund for the Goods. If the Goods are, or a component of the Goods is, no longer available and the Goods cannot be repaired, Decorlux will, in its absolute discretion, replace the Goods with a substitute item.
Guide for maintaining blinds.
a. We recommend a regular dusting of your blinds using a feather duster to prevent any dust build up.
b. For common dirt and marks we recommend using a sponge soaked in lukewarm water and gently treating the area.
c. Decorlux accepts no responsibility for any damage to your blinds caused by cleaning and by the use of detergents.
d. For windows that require frequent use or access, such as sliding doors, If you blinds start to fray on the side then cut off the fraying section with sharp scissors and use a touch of hairspray to reseal the edge.
