Residential Warranty

General Information

Fimbel Door Company warrants to the original purchaser that we will repair or replace those sections for the period specified on the reverse of this form.  These warranties extend to normal usage, when the door has been installed and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. 

These warranties are for single-family residential installations of complete Fimbel Door Company (sections and hardware).  They do not apply to commercial, industrial, or non-residential uses.  For residential condominium or similar multi-family housing the rust though warranty will extend from the date of purchase to the original purchaser for the period shown on the reverse of this form.

The above warranties do not apply to any damage or deterioration caused by abuse or misuse, failure to provide reasonable and necessary maintenance, improper installation or handling, acts of God, fire, failure of paint applied after the door left our factory, alterations and/or additions to door or atmospheric conditions, including, but not limited to:  (1) areas subject to excessive salt atmosphere, (2) areas subject to fallout or exposure to corrosive chemicals, fumes, ash, cement dust, animal waste, or foreign substances, and (3) areas subject to water runoff from lead, copper, or galvanic metal flashing.

We recommend you wash your Fimbel door (just as you wash your car) to help protect the finish at least one (1) time per year, particularly in salt air climates, with a mild solution of five (5) gallons of warm water and one (1) cup of common household detergent, such as Tide™.

This door is pre-painted, but we believe that the door will accept a wide variety of commercially available latex exterior house paints, when applied in accordance with the paint manufacturer’s recommendations.  However, no warranty of compatibility is made or implied.  Do not use oil-based paint.

If within, the applicable warranty period, the sections or hardware are found to be defective upon inspection by authorized Fimbel personnel, Fimbel will repair, repaint, or replace, at its option, the defective door sections or hardware.  Proof of purchase is required.  Any charges for freight, removal installation, or painting shall be the responsibility of the original purchaser.  IN NO EVENT, SHALL FIMBEL DOOR COMPANY BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES.

Some states do not allow the exclusion of limitations of incidental or consequential damages so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.  This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights, which vary from state to state or province to province.  To make a claim under this warranty contact us immediately in writing at the address listed below.    Whereupon, at its discretion, Fimbel may instruct the purchaser to return the defective door section or part(s) thereof, prepaid, to the nearest Fimbel facility.

ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED. INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ARE HEREBY LIMITED TO THEIR RESPECTIVE TIME PERIOD STATED ABOVE, AND OTHERWISE ARE EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED (SOME STATES RESTRICT SUCH LIMITATIONS, SO THIS LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU).
