(i) these General Terms;  

(ii) the order form or proposal issued by us in connection with the Deliverables (Order Terms); and  

(iii) any other document which is stated to be legally binding which is signed and agreed by both parties. Together the above documents will be the Agreement. These documents are the only terms that apply to the contract between you and us. Any other terms (including those that you may try to impose or incorporate, or which are implied by trade, custom, practice or course of dealing) are excluded from the Agreement. 

3.2 Any Order Terms issued by us shall not constitute an offer and are only valid for a period of 30 calendar days from their date of issue. Any quotation is made on the understanding that it may be accepted in full and not in part. Errors and omissions are excepted.  

3.3 All orders must be confirmed in writing. We accept no responsibility for inaccuracies of orders given verbally, including by telephone. Any order placed by you shall only be deemed to be accepted upon your acceptance of our Order Terms (either by signature and return, email acceptance, issuance of PO, or payment of any deposit required) at which point the Agreement shall come into existence 6/3/2023. Orders will normally be processed by us upon the Commencement Date, but we reserve the right not to process your order until the first deposit payment has been made. Sometimes we may cancel orders (or part thereof), for example, because a Product is unexpectedly out of stock, or we have made substantive or significant changes to the Product(s) or because there is an error or omission in any of our sales literature, estimate, quotation, price list, acceptance of offer, invoice or other document or information issued by us, including scenarios where the Product was mis-priced by us. While we will use our best efforts to correct any such errors, we are not responsible for orders placed for Products or orders which are otherwise affected as a result of these errors. When this happens, we let you know as soon as possible and contact you to confirm whether you are happy to change your order. If you are not, we may refund any sums you have paid in respect of any element of your order we can no longer fulfil.  

3.4 After the Order Terms are agreed, we may also change the relevant Products to make minor technical adjustments and improvements and/or to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements. If we feel these changes will significantly affect your use of the Products, we will notify you and you can contact us to end the Contract before changes take place and receive a refund. 

3.5 If you wish to amend an order or specific item within your order, after receipt of confirmation from us in accordance with clause 3.3, you must notify us in writing within the indicated time periods, as follows:  

• Product Orders: 24 hours 
• Manufactured Items: 10 business days 
• Customised Product: 5 business days 
• Installation Services: 10 business days 

We will let you know if the change to your order or specific item within your order, is possible. If this is possible then then we will update you as to any changes to the price of the Product, the delivery times or anything else required to provide your request to change your order. We reserve the right amend the Charges to reflect any amendment made to the order, including an amendment fee to cover all costs, expenses and/or other losses arising as a result of any amendment. If we have already commenced the Services then the above shall no longer apply as noted further elsewhere in these General Terms.  

3.6 Following the Commencement Date, no order may be cancelled by you except upon agreement by us in writing. Without prejudice to any other right or remedies, if we agree to cancellation, we reserve the right to charge a cancellation fee to cover all costs, expenses and/or other losses (including lost profit) arising as a result of any cancellation (Cancellation Fee). This clause does not affect your rights arising out of any breach by us, or your statutory rights if you are a Consumer.   

3.7 Any recommendation or advice given by us, our employees or agents to you regarding the Deliverables which is not confirmed in writing by us as having contractual effect is followed or acted upon entirely at your own risk, and accordingly we shall not be liable for any such advice or recommendation which is not so confirmed. Any typographical, clerical or other error or omission in any sales literature, estimate, quotation, price list, acceptance of offer, invoice or other document or information issued by us shall be subject to correction without any liability on our part. 

4.1 In consideration for payment by you of the Charges, we shall provide the Deliverables set out within the relevant Order Terms, or otherwise agreed between the parties. 

4.2 We undertake that the Services will be supplied using reasonable skill and care, and performed in a good and workmanlike manner, using appropriate skills and experience, and having regard to the nature of the Deliverables and the requirements of the Specification. We reserve the right to amend Specification or Deliverables from time to time, if reasonably required, including where and statutory or legal requirement relating to the Deliverables has changed or where the change does not substantially impact the fundamental nature or quality of the Deliverables. 

4.3 Product photographs are intended to illustrate the particular model of a Product, they may not reflect the Product as sold e.g. a Product's true colour may not exactly match that shown on your device or in our marketing or its packaging may be slightly different. Unless specifically stated otherwise in the Order Confirmation, weights, bars and other accessories shown in any photographs are not included. Because our products are handmade, all sizes, weights, capacities, dimensions and measurements indicated on our website can be out by up to 5%. Unless specifically stated, weights, bars and other accessories shown on photographs are not included - please contact our customer service team for further details on any particular Product if you are in any doubt.  

4.4 If we're making or supplying the Product to measurements you provide, you're responsible for making sure those measurements are correct. 

4.5 Some of our Products are sold subject to guidelines and instructions (our guidelines and instructions are generally available in product manuals, which may be linked via the QR code on the packaging of the relevant Product). It is your responsibility to ensure that you, and/or other users of the Products, are fully aware of all relevant guidelines and instructions before using the Products. Please seek professional medical advice before use of any fitness and exercise related Products to minimise the risk of injury. Always consult your doctor before using any fitness or exercise Product. 

4.6 We shall use reasonable endeavours to provide the Deliverables within a reasonable time. However, timing of performance of our obligations under the Agreement shall not be of the essence, and we shall not be liable for contract delays, including those attributable to third parties. Any timeframes specified shall be estimates only.  

4.7 You acknowledge that you have assessed for yourself the suitability of the Deliverables for your requirements. We do not warrant that the Deliverables will be suitable for such requirements, nor that any use of the Deliverables will be uninterrupted or error free. The Deliverables are (generally, but not exactly) as described in our catalogues or other materials from time to time, as modified by any applicable Specification. If we are making or supplying the Deliverables to measurements you provide, you are responsible for making sure those measurements are correct.  

4.8 Each party warrants that it has full capacity and authority, and all necessary licences, permits and consents to enter into and perform its duties and obligations under the Agreement and that those persons signing the Order Terms, if any, are duly authorised to bind the party for whom they sign.  

4.9 We may, upon giving notice to you, appoint a suitably qualified sub-contractor to perform any part of the Services on our behalf. You will continue to be liable to pay our Charges as provided in Clause 10 below, and shall not be liable directly for any of the fees of any such sub-contractor.  

5.1 The costs of delivery of the Deliverables will be set out in the Order Terms. We shall use reasonable endeavours to deliver the Products to the location set out in the Order Terms or such other location as the parties may agree (Delivery Location) at the time agreed between the parties. Unless otherwise expressly agreed the Delivery Location shall be deemed to be kerbside at the address which you specify, and we shall not be responsible for bringing Products into the building, or installing them in situ at your premises. Where the Delivery Location is otherwise than at our premises from time to time, please note that additional charges may apply, which we shall inform you of in advance, and all prices quoted are on an ex works basis (according to Incoterms 2010) from our premises unless specified otherwise. Two clear Business Day’s notice must be given to us of any change likely to affect delivery for the change to be implemented (for example if you change your order as set out at clause 3.4), and you will be liable for any fees we incur as a result of any change (including increased delivery charges, for example).   

5.2 Delivery of the Products shall be completed on the Products' arrival at the Delivery Location. We shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of the Products that is caused by your failure to provide us with adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of the Products, or your failure to take delivery of the Products.  

5.3 We may deliver the Products by instalments. Any delay in delivery or defect in an instalment shall not entitle you to cancel any other instalment.  

5.4 Where you fail to have adequate facilities or utilities available to physically allow delivery and installation under the terms of this Agreement by us or our approved sub-contractors, including to have the location prepared for delivery and installation by us, or make personnel available to facilitate access to any location, or otherwise circumstances arise which are not-attributable to our acts or omissions but which prevent or delay delivery (including the occurrence of any Unsuitable Conditions), we shall not be liable for any such failure, provided that we use all reasonable endeavours to facilitate the delivery of the Deliverables and keep you appraised as soon as reasonably possible of all relevant issues. 

5.5 If you fail to accept or take delivery of any Products within one calendar week of us notifying you that the Products are ready, then except where such failure or delay is caused by our failure to comply with our obligations under the Agreement then delivery shall be deemed to have taken place at 9.00 am two Business Days following the day on which we notified you that the Products were ready, and we reserve the right to either store the Products until delivery takes place, and charge you for all related costs and expenses (including insurance), or to cancel the Agreement and charge you a Cancellation Fee.  

5.6 Due to the size of certain Products, at times we may have to use oversized pallets which are too large to be offloaded via a tail lift delivery. In this instance it is your responsibility to offload the delivery with a forklift truck or by arrangement of additional labour at the delivery point to manually breakdown and offload the goods from the bed of the truck. We reserve the right amend the Charges to reflect any additional delivery charges incurred by us due to your failure to arrange the offloading. 

5.7 Any claim by you which is based on any defect in the quality or condition of the Deliverables or their failure to correspond with Specification (including loss or damage in transit) shall (whether or not delivery is refused by you) be notified to us within 48 hours from the date of delivery of the Products or completion of the Services or (where the defect or failure was not apparent on reasonable inspection) within a reasonable time after discovery of the defect or failure. You shall be deemed to have accepted the Products following such period if no issues are raised.

Any Product specific warranty limitations or conditions set out on our website at the relevant listing for the relevant Products shall also apply.   

6.3 If you are not a Consumer, the Blk Box Standard Warranty shall be, where you are not a Consumer, your sole right, remedy and warranty with respect to any defective Products supplied by us. In particular, the terms implied by sections 13 to 15 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 are, to the fullest extent permitted by law, excluded from the Agreement. If you are a Consumer, the Blk Box Standard Warranty is without prejudice to your statutory rights.  

6.4 The Blk Box Standard Warranty is that the Products will be of reasonably satisfactory quality and durability and substantially fit for the purpose of use in a commercial or home gym environment for the purposes for which they are intended/designed by us, for the duration of the relevant Warranty Period, subject always to such warranty excluding (a) fair wear and tear; (b) intentional damage or mis-use, negligence or abnormal storage or working conditions (unless you can prove this was caused by us or our contractors during the provision of the Services), (c) accidental loss or damage not attributable to our negligent or wrongful actions or omissions; (d) Products which you cannot demonstrate have been satisfactorily maintained, used, treated and cared in accordance with any written instructions provided by us, and general industry standards (whichever standard is higher); (e) Products you have continued to use or permit the use of having given us notice in accordance with Clause 6.5; (f) defects which arise as a result of our following any drawing, design or Specification supplied by you; (g) alterations to the relevant Products made without our prior written consent; (h) Products you refuse to permit us to examine (or in respect of which you fail to provide us with insufficient evidence) to determine the nature of the alleged defect; and (i) warranty claims notified to us later than 14 days after you become or ought reasonably to have become aware of the circumstances giving rise to the claim.

Such Products may be partially or fully boxed/assembled and may have some sort of cosmetic damage, which shall be described or identified in the Product listing. Such damage shall not be covered by the Blk Box Standard Warranty.   

6.6 We do not have any obligation to support any Products, whether by spare parts or repairs following the end of the Warranty Period for such Products, except as otherwise expressly agreed in writing or where you are a Consumer exercising your statutory rights.

10.13 Without prejudice to any other remedy available to us, if any sum due from you to us under any Agreement between us has not been paid within 3 weeks from its becoming due, we may, upon giving to you 7 days’ notice in writing of our intention to do so (unless all such sums have in the meantime been paid), sell (in any manner we see fit) any or all of the Your Products in our possession. The net proceeds of such sale shall after payment of the costs of such sale be applied in or towards payment or satisfaction of the debts, or liabilities owing by you to us, insofar as they are presently payable and any residue shall (subject to a like lien for debts or liabilities not presently payable as existed upon Your Products prior to sale) be paid to you.
