Shipping information (USA)
We make every effort to ship your order as quickly as possible, usually within 3-4 business days if in stock. Our default shipping method is UPS Ground. If you require shipping via UPS or other carrier, additional fees may apply and will typically add 1-2 business days before your item will ship. For items too large to ship via UPS such as large custom brackets, poles/posts, etc., we will utilize a common carrier transport company and ship LTL. For normal-sized products (excluding posts/poles) you can get a shipping estimate simply by placing an item(s) into your Cart and then entering your ship to zip code (you do not have to commit to or process an order to get this estimate).

Canadian Shipping information
Please place your order via our website. Merchandise may ship via small package service (UPS) or via other means, which will be specified in your order. The shipping charge will include the Brokerage/ Tax & Duties. Please note, customs inspections/holds in the receiving country may add additional time to your anticipated delivery date.

We typically ship "in-stock" international orders within 3-4 business days after receipt and UPS "International Economy Ground" is the default shipping method (unless the customer requests otherwise, the item is too large to send via UPS or UPS delivery is not an option for your location). If a requested item is out of stock or we do not have sufficient inventory to fill your order we will make every attempt to contact you and advise you of the lead time to fulfill your order. To have your order shipped faster than standard international economy ground please contact our customer service department and we will calculate freight for fastest available transit based on shipper capabilities.

Should you not find what you need in our product offerings or have a design of your own that you would like us to fabricate, we will be happy to prepare a quote for custom fabrication and submit for your review and consideration. We routinely receive requests to make some of our products at different sizes, shapes, colors or configurations. We also make one-of-a-kind items based on customer designs or on occasion recreate period pieces. Please note, due to variances in the fabrication process and artful interpretation of the design, exact duplicates/recreations are not always possible. We will attempt to (re)create your design as close as possible to the drawings/specifications, but some minor variances in dimensions or esthetic should be expected. There are no minimum quantities on custom orders. Please call or email our customer service department for details. Please also feel free to provide us with any available specifications (size, color, drawings, etc.) and we will prepare a quote for your review and consideration.

STORAGE FEE POLICY

Orders cannot be released for shipment until receipt of the final balance. Any orders that remain at our distribution center for more than one week will be transferred to a long-term storage facility at the start of the second week. Depending on the order size, a $250-$500 transfer fee will be applied, and 1% of the order total will be charged per week of storage to the outstanding balance.

RETURN/CANCELLATION POLICY

Non-Lighting Products
Our return policy is simple. Within 15 business days of receipt of shipment, you may return any non-custom item(s) (excludes light fixtures or special order items).

• If received in their original condition and deemed to be re-sellable, we will issue a full refund (less shipping and handling) for the price of any non-custom item(s) you return that meet these conditions. Prior to returning any item, you must contact our customer service department to obtain an RMA form and that form must be included with the item(s) being returned.

Products received more than 90 days from request date are not returnable/refundable.

If you need to cancel an order for non-custom items that have not yet shipped, we will stop that order and issue a full refund. If the order has shipped you will be responsible to return that item and a refund will be processed after we have received the item(s) back into inventory and deemed them to be in good condition.

If an item is damaged in transit you must contact us within 48 hours of receipt so that we can file a claim with the shipping company. Please note the extent of the damage and take pictures if possible so that we can start the claim process and arrange to get you a replacement Item(s) in an expedient manner.
Custom orders are not returnable, please review your estimate sheet and any associated dimensions, diagrams or art work carefully prior to placing your order. Cancellation of custom orders can only be done if fabrication of the item(s) has not yet started and cancellation fees may apply.

Orders cancelled prior to shipment but after 24 hours are subject to the 50% re-stocking fee.

We accept the following major credit cards - American Express, Discover, MasterCard and VISA. Online orders can also be paid via PayPal. If making payment by check, your order will not ship until the check has been received and cleared by our bank. Payments must be received in full and verified prior to shipping of any item (including custom items). With prior approval, customers who order on a regular (min. quarterly) basis can apply for credit terms. Please contact us for a credit application. Typical processing time for credit applications is approx. 5-7 business days after receipt.

We utilize the Big Commerce eCommerce Platform to handle our online order processing. All orders are handled with industry-standard SSL encryption. When you enter your credit card number into the Big Commerce order form, it is transmitted across the Internet in an encrypted (scrambled) form, then decoded when it gets to us. For added security, Big Commerce encrypts the credit card number at all times.

If you are not the kind of person who worries about being hit by lightning as you're crossing the street, you probably don't have to worry that your credit card number will be intercepted on the way to a secure Web site. According to CNN,

"The prevalent opinion...is that online credit card use is actually no riskier for consumers than traditional "low-tech" transactions."

We order products online all the time, both as a company and as individuals. When we use a credit card to buy something online, we feel at least as safe as we would using one in a store or restaurant.
If at any point you are uncomfortable using the online credit card-based ordering process, you are always welcome to call in your order during our normal business hours.
