Warranty

Effective Date: 25 September 2025

At Teak & Rope, every piece is crafted to last a lifetime. We proudly stand behind the quality and durability of our designs.

We offer this Limited Warranty in addition to your statutory rights under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL). To make a warranty claim, you must provide proof of purchase, evidence of correct installation and care, and confirm that the product was used according to the intended residential or commercial purposes specified. The warranty excludes coverage for misuse, neglect, improper installation, unauthorized repairs, and damage caused by harsh chemicals such as bleach, ammonia, or solvents, or by acts of nature. Additionally, cosmetic changes that result from normal wear and tear are not considered defects and are not covered under this warranty.

Warranty Activation and Claims Process

  • Activation: Registration of your warranty within 30 days of delivery is recommended but not mandatory. Registration can be completed via Teak & Rope’s website and requires proof of purchase, installation date, product location, and specification of whether the product is for residential or commercial use. Failure to register does not affect your rights under the ACL.
  • Claims: To initiate a warranty claim, contact Teak & Rope with your order number, photographs of the issue, site details, and installer information if relevant. Teak & Rope may arrange to inspect the product or request the return of the affected part.
  • Remedies: At its discretion, and subject to legal requirements, Teak & Rope may repair or replace the defective component, supply an equivalent product, or provide a refund if required by law.

Limitations and Exclusions

  • The warranty applies only to the original purchaser and the original installation site, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
  • Fading or discoloration from prolonged direct sunlight or coastal conditions must be consistent with the care instructions, and some color change over time is considered normal.
  • Improper sub-frame design, inadequate ventilation or clearances, or use of non-compliant fasteners or adhesives may void the warranty.
  • Commercial installations are covered for shorter durations, acknowledging higher traffic and more frequent cleaning regimes.
