Contracts of sale

All contracts of sale will be subject to these conditions and all terms and any conditions which are inconsistent therewith shall have no effect. Any variation of the terms and conditions of the contract as contained in these conditions and the order or acknowledgement will become binding only if confirmed in writing by the company. Your purchase shall be acceptance of these terms. Any contract of sale from Herron Engineering Ltd., submitted under these terms and conditions shall be subject to the laws of Northern Ireland.

Availability and delivery of goods

The company will use its best endeavours to deliver all goods at the date and within the time specified in the contract but the company shall not be liable for any expense, loss or damage whatsoever suffered by the buyer as a result of the company for whatever reason not delivering at the date or within the time so specified.

Should the availability of any of the goods at any of the company’s work or the delivery thereof, whether by the company or by an independent carrier, be prevented or hindered directly or indirectly by fire ,the elements, war, civil commotion, strike or lock out, industrial dispute, shortage of raw materials or fuel notwithstanding that the company has taken all reasonable steps to procure the same, breakdown or partial failure of plant or machinery, acts, orders or regulations of any Government, delay on the part of any independent sub-contractor or supplier, or any other cause whatsoever beyond the reasonable control of the company, then the time for delivery of the goods shall be extended for a reasonable period having regard to the effects of the delay caused on the availability or delivery of the goods. If the availability or delivery of the goods is still prevented or hindered at the end of that period, the company may cancel any deliveries not made.

Deliveries will be made within 1 to 10 working days dependant upon weight, delivery service and subject to availability. Your order may be despatched from multiple locations and therefore arrive as separate deliveries.

Each partial delivery or instalment of the goods shall be deemed to be sold under a separate contract and no default by the company in respect in any part of any delivery of instalment shall entitle the buyer to treat the contract as repudiated in regard to any balance or instalment delivered or deliverable.

Goods on special order are not refundable.

We cannot guarantee delivery dates and times as these may be affected by circumstances outside our control. We will do our best to contact you if we are forewarned of delays.

For this reason we are unable to accept responsibility for lost working time and recommend goods are ordered well in advance of any project start dates.

If we are unable to gain access to the agreed delivery address we will return the goods to our warehouse and make contact with you to re-arrange delivery. Unfortunately in these circumstances we may have to charge you a further delivery fee.

Heavy goods deliveries may require your assistance to offload. Offers to assist the delivery are made at your own risk and should only be attempted if you are comfortable lifting the load.

All goods must be signed for to confirm receipt. If you are unavailable at this time we recommend a responsible adult is available to sign on your behalf. We carry the risk of loss or damage to the products until you sign for them upon receipt, we therefore recommend that you inspect the product thoroughly at this time to ensure you are happy that the goods have not been damaged in transit and all items are present.

Complaints

Any complaints with regard to shortages, damage, etc. must be made to the company within seven days of the date of receipt of the order. If the buyer should allege that the goods or any part thereof are not in accordance with the contract, the buyer shall give notice in writing to the company immediately giving particulars of the shortage, damage, etc. alleged and shall afford to the company or to the company‘s agents facilities to inspect the goods and investigate the complaint before the goods are used, processed, sold or otherwise dealt with. Provided that the buyer shall have complied with this condition and if the goods or any part thereof are proved not to be in accordance with the contract or specification, then the company will accept the rejection of the relevant goods and replace the goods within a reasonable time.
