Custom made

All of our products are custom made to suit your specific frames and openings. Once made, our products are suitable only to you and therefore cannot be cancelled or returned. Because of this it is extremely important that you are sure about the product that you want and also the size you require.

Tilbrook Blinds and Security cannot be held responsible if you dislike the colour or the general quality of the product. This includes location of T posts, Buildout frames and Architrave surrounds where our representative has shown samples on site and advised of possible obstructions with Sliding Doors, Windows and Louvres. We strongly recommend that you double check your order to ensure that the products ordered and measurements taken are correct. Acceptance of quote and payment of 50% Deposit creates a binding contract and all verbal and written communications regarding layout and visual appearance of shutters will be recorded and referred back to if the customer disputes quality of products after installation. It is strongly advised that before you look at Installing Plantation Shutters you consider convenience of future cleaning of windows or doors being covered and whether the shutters will obstruct access to these glass surfaces. The customer will be held responsible for all changes to Shutter layouts or Framework that are deemed necessary by the customer after installation of previously approved Shutter configurations.
