Futile/Unattended Site Visits
In the event that you have been advised a technician will be attending your install site and for any reason no one is available to show the technician the install location for the shutter/s and/or the technician cannon access the installation site, the technician’s attendance will incur a fee of $180.00 + GST (metropolitan areas, other areas may attract a higher fee) in addition to the general costs of any further required visits.
Clear Working Areas and Obstructions
For install orders, openings/applications and working area must be clear and ready to have the roller shutters installed. At site inspection/measure, upon the technician’s recommendations and discretion, obstructions must be removed for installation to take place or the working area must be cleared.
Above Ground Level Installs and Scaffolding
For install orders, openings above ground floor (i.e. double storey) we will require scaffolding to have the job successfully and safely completed, which is a one-off fee to be assessed after inspection of the site. Any opening where the top of the opening exceeds 3.2 metres from flat/level ground will be considered an opening above ground level, and will thus require scaffolding – this must be marked as an above ground opening on the order form.
For openings where the top of the opening is greater than 5.8 metres from level ground, roller shutters cannot be installed unless otherwise advised.
Unusual or Complex Installations
Due to the potential complexity of installation projects, other variable may need to be factored into the installation package price, it is therefore not inclusive of all pricing variables and site variations that may occur during installation. If additional charges apply, you will be advised before any installation works proceed.
Electrical wiring Installation
Our installations include electrical wiring being installed on the surface of walls, roofs or other areas, unless otherwise advised. Any electrical wiring will be installed using conduit pipe and otherwise in accordance with applicable building and electrical safety requirements.
Should you require a complex installation which allows for electrical wiring to be concealed, additional charge may apply. Please advise us before installation commences.
Damage During Installation
All technicians that are retained by Ultimate Shutter to install shutters will take preventative measures so as not to damage your property. If damage to your property does occur during installation, which we are satisfied is caused by our technicians during installation, we will arrange for repairs to the same level prior to the damage being caused but will not be responsible for any painting of walls floors eaves windows fascia’s gutters or roof’s.
You agree that our liability will be limited to the lesser of an amount equivalent to the cost of the specific shutter being installed.
Intended Purpose
Access Prevention
Our shutters may be used for numerous purposes; however, we do not guarantee, advise or represent that shutters are intended for any particular purpose. Our shutters may operate as a deterrent to unauthorised entry, but do not prevent or otherwise eliminate the potential for unauthorised entry into your property. You acknowledge that our shutters are at most a deterrent to unauthorised entry into your property and we are not liable for any loss or damage caused from any theft, robbery or other criminal act or trespass by a third party.
Inclement or Extreme Weather
Our shutters are expected to take a degree of extreme or inclement weather, however our shutters are not warranted for damage resulting from extreme weather conditions such as excessive high-speed winds and large hail stones.
Water Ingress
Our shutters are not a water barrier and may allow water to pass through, even when fully closed. You must ensure that all windows, doors and other potential openings below the shutter are sealed to prevent water ingress.
Colour and Material
Our shutters are all painted to specific colour specifications. However, colours may vary slightly including as a result of painted surfaces differing in texture and material, which may result in slight variations to the colour.
