Delivery Information

At Glass Openings, we aim to almost always use our own vehicles and drivers to ensure the high standards of delivery.

Delivery terms vary based on product. Please see below relevant section.

Standard delivery terms (Mainland Post Codes)

We at Glass Openings will carry out deliveries manufactured by us and will be free for orders that are over £1200.00. Any orders under £1200.00 will incur a delivery charge based on location.

Lead times stated at the time of ordering are not final. All delivery times are from the date we receive a finalised order, online or e-mail and when payment is made in full. Any modifications to the order will more than likely result in a delay to the delivery.

Please see below terms of delivery:
