  1. Acceptance of Order

All buyer’s orders must either be written on buyer’s Purchase Order or the Enclosure Guy order form and signed for by the buyer. Enclosure Guy is not bound by any terms listed on a purchase order or the buyer’s order form that are in variance with Enclosure Guy’s Terms and Conditions of Sale. Upon placement of the order, the buyer is considered to have accepted Enclosure Guy’s Terms and Conditions. No order, quotation or acknowledgements and no provisions of Enclosure Guy’s Terms and Conditions of Sale are subject to change in any respect, except as may be expressly agreed to in writing by an authorized representative of Enclosure Guy. Failure of Enclosure Guy to object to provisions contained in any Purchase Order or other communications from the buyer (including without limitations penalty clauses or labor charges) shall not be construed as a waiver of these Terms and Conditions of Sale, or an acceptance of any such provisions. In no event shall Enclosure Guy be responsible or liable for any special indirect or consequential damages arising out of this agreement with the buyer. The acceptance date of the Verified Sales Order (VSO) shall be the date Enclosure Guy emails the confirmation of the acceptance of the VSO to the buyer and acknowledged through consent by the customer.

Enclosure Guy shall accept the order evidenced by the VSO, which shall be sent to the customer. Orders may be cancelled with notice to Enclosure Guy in writing within the three (3) business days of the acceptance date of the VSO. If the order is not cancelled after three (3) business days of the acceptance date of the VSO, the customer shall lose the deposit and may, on special order materials or hardware, be required to pay an additional 20% restocking fee and may be required to pay for specific engineering, drafting, samples, models, mock-ups, and postage, if any.  After three (3) business days of the acceptance date of the VSO, the customer may be required to pay an additional 10% administrative fee on the gross sales price.

If the order is cancelled within the three (3) business days of the acceptance date of the VSO, the deposit, minus any applicable fees will be returned within 30 days of the cancellation.

 

  1. Engineering

Enclosure Guy does not guarantee a wind-speed rating for the product unless the customer specifically requests an analysis and engineering for the particular application, which must be evidenced by a specific line item in the order with the appropriate cost identified. If the customer believes such analysis and engineering is deemed appropriate due to special conditions, including permitting, environmental, and high wind velocity for the area of installation, the customer is required to make such a request no later than three (3) business days from the acceptance date of the VSO.

 

  1. Permitting

A permit from the local city, county or state government may be required for the installation of the product. Securing such permit is the responsibility of the customer and not Enclosure Guy.

If Enclosure Guy will be installing the product, the customer must provide Enclosure Guy with the authorized permit or permits at least one week prior to the date of installation. The customer agrees to indemnify Enclosure

Guy for all costs, fines, interest, any loss of revenue as a result of being red tagged and/or shut-down, and attorney’s fees if the customer does not secure the appropriate permit(s) and Enclosure Guy is cited by any local or state agency for violation of any building code.

 

  1. Prices

Prices will include, where applicable, state taxes. Prices and specifications are subject to change without notice. Written quotations expire 30 days from date of the quotation, unless otherwise specified. In the event that the buyer wants to postpone the delivery date of a previously accepted order, Enclosure Guy, on its sole discretion, reserves the right to approve such postponement. If Enclosure Guy agrees in writing to a postponed delivery date then the price that will apply to this order shall be the price in effect on the postponed shipping date.

 

  1. Terms of Payment

Terms of payment are as specified on Enclosure Guy’s invoice, regardless of terms indicated in Purchase Order or the buyer’s order form or other documents. Any outstanding balances on the due dates shall be subject to a service charge of 1.5% per month (18% per annum) or the maximum amount allowed by applicable law. Accounts with outstanding balances may be placed on credit hold until the account is brought to date. Accounts past due 60 days may be placed for collection and all charges in the collection process, including attorney’s fees, will be invoiced to the buyer. Furthermore, the account will be reclassified to 100% prepayment status, work in progress will be placed on hold, and the warranty will no longer be honored. Payment on time and in accordance with terms stated herein is of the essence, and whenever the buyer is in default, or in the event of substantial changes in the financial situation of the buyer’s company, including but not limited to bankruptcy, change of ownership, and change in credit rating, Enclosure Guy reserves the right to cancel the Purchase Order without liability for damages to the buyer, or defer or discontinue shipments until past due payments are made and assurances furnished to Enclosure Guy’s satisfaction of the buyer to pay for such shipments. If an order involves partial shipments, failure to pay for a partial shipment entitles Enclosure Guy to hold subsequent deliveries until payment of past due shipments is made.

 

  1. Delivery

Enclosure Guy shall specify point of shipment on the VSO and Enclosure Guy shall select routing method of transportation if not specified on the customer’s purchase order.

The buyer is further required to inspect the merchandise upon delivery and in the event defects or damages should be noticed after delivery, the carrier should be immediately contacted by telephone and, if carrier fails to send an inspector within five (5) days, a request should be made in writing to the carrier, confirming the telephone request for inspection.

  1. Shipping Delays

Unless otherwise specified by Enclosure Guy, shipping dates provided by Enclosure Guy at the request of the buyer are approximate. Deviation from estimated shipping schedules shall not entitle the buyer to penalties or damages, nor shall it be an acceptable ground for cancellation of the order.

If any curtain or screen does not fit, Enclosure Guy will re-work and/or replace the product free of charge.
