Returns & Refunds Policy
Before You Return
All returns require prior written authorisation from Forxa. Do not send goods back without contacting us first. Unauthorised returns will not be accepted and no refund will be issued.
Change of Mind Returns
We accept change of mind returns on standard stock items only, subject to the following strict conditions:
- You must notify us within 14 days of receiving your order
- A 25% restocking fee is deducted from your refund — this is non-negotiable
- Return shipping is entirely your responsibility and cost
- Goods must be returned within 14 days of our written acceptance
- Goods must be in original, undamaged packaging — unused, uninstalled, unaltered
- Any reduction in resale value (scratches, missing fixings, damaged packaging) may result in a further deduction
- Refunds are processed within 14 days of receiving and approving the return
Wrong Item Ordered
It is your responsibility to ensure items ordered are correct for your requirements before purchasing. If you order the wrong item:
- This is treated as a change of mind return — all conditions above apply
- A 25% restocking fee will be charged
- Return shipping is at your cost
- No exceptions will be made
If you are unsure whether a product is right for your staircase, email us at sales@forxa.co.uk before ordering and we will do our best to advise.

You have the right to goods that are of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, and as described. This policy operates alongside, not instead of, your legal rights.
