Confirmations
When
an order is placed, we require a signed estimate
before we will proceed to production. A signed
estimate is a confirmation of the products or
services you are ordering. It list such things as
the cost of each item, the details of each item
(wood specie, custom size & so on), the method of
shipment & other pertinent information to the
order. All estimates are faxed and/or emailed to
you & require your signature to confirm your
order. Orders WILL NOT go into production without the return
of the signed estimate and a completed credit
card payment form. A delay in returning the
confirmation will result in a delay of your order.
Any confirmations received before 10:00 A.M. EST
will be processed the same day. TOP
Measurements
We
accept measurements in fraction or decimal form.
We do not accept measurements in metric. When
providing measurements please be certain to provide
the size of the finished product. We are unable
to calculate exact size from your opening sizes.
TOP
Estimates
We will be happy to provide an estimate to you before
ordering. You may print & fax an order form
from our order forms
page,
there is a check box within the form for you to
enter "Quote Only" or "Order". Whether you fax
or email your information to us be sure to let
us know that it is a "Quote Only", quotes take
up to 24 hours. Estimates are valid for 15
calendar days.

Packaging
Packaging is an additional charge to the cost of
the goods & starts at $10 and increases depending on
the complexity of packaging & the amount of
packaging required to secure the items for shipment.
If a pallet is necessary to ship your order, a
$25/pallet fee will be added into the packaging
charge. Minimum charge for packaging is $10.00.
The exact cost of packaging will be itemized in
your confirmation. TOP
Shipping
We
ship to all part of the globe from our facility
in Orlando, Florida, USA. We ship either UPS or
Truck Line (common carrier). Common Carrier is
the method of choice & historically has resulted
in fewer damages. Large doors, multiple drawer
boxes & some other bulky items will always
be shipped via common carrier. When we ship
items via common carrier they will be placed into
a box, onto a pallet, wrapped & banded.
The carriers responsibility is limited to moving
the material to the back of the truck. From there
you can then easily remove the product without
a forklift by simply cutting the plastic bands
& unloading the items by hand. It is in your
best interest to have products shipped to a business
address because all of our carriers charge a fee
for entering into a residential neighborhood.
Fees range from $35.00 to $75.00, this fee is
imposed by the carriers NOT by Eagle Bay Cabinet
Doors & Drawers. The choice of which carrier to use is
based on our knowledge of which carriers deliver
to various parts of the US (and beyond) the fastest,
the least expensively & have the fewest cases
of damage. We will, only if you request,
try to use your carrier of choice when possible.
TOP
Damages
While
we make every effort to ensure that your product
arrives in the condition it left our facility
it is inevitable that product will be damaged
in shipment from time to time. When you receive
your order inspect the package carefully for any
signs of damage. If the package appears to be
damaged take a moment & open the package in
the presence of the driver to see if the product
has been harmed. It is the responsibility of the
customer to file for any and all damages or shortages
with the delivering carrier. We will provide you
with numbers & any information we have to
help in this process. If any portion of the product
needs to be replaced a new invoice will be created
at the same rate as the original items, the customer
is responsible for reordering the products needed
& filing a claim for refund with the carrier.
TOP
If
damage is found, do the following:
-
Note
description & extent of damage on delivering
companies paper work.

Shortages
If
you are to receive more than one package or pallet
in a shipment all packages will be marked with
information indicating how many packages should
be present in the shipment. Marking would be written
as box 1 of 3, 1/3 or likewise. If one or
more packages does not arrive to you it
may simply be a case of being separated from the
other packages during transit. Note with your
driver on the bill of lading or other paperwork
the number of packages that are missing then contact
us so we can provide you with the tracking number
(s) of the missing package (s). Since all products
are billed before they leave our facility &
become property of the customer we require that
the customer file for refunds or shortages with
the carrier & then reorder any parts or pieces
they may require. TOP
If
your shortage is for one individual piece within
an order, and the package arrived unopened, contact
our office directly for instructions. If package
is opened, refer to Damages section above. We count
all products twice before they leave our facility
so we handle these claims on an individual basis.
It is your responsibility to advise us within 15
calendar days of your order shipping if there are
any discrepancies in the shipment.
TOP
If
any portion of the product needs to be replaced
a new invoice will be created at the same rate
as the original items, the customer is responsible
for reordering the products needed & filing
a claim for refund with the carrier. TOP

stained or altered are not returnable. Any damaged
items will be replaced but the fact of them being

Warranty
Eagle Bay Cabinet Doors & Drawers warrants all
of its products against manufacturing defects for
a period of one year from date of invoice. We
do not warrant nor do we accept responsibility for
any damages resulting from the use or improper
installation or modification of our products. This
warranty does not cover, among other things,
labor, travel, shipping, storage, finishes,
related products used on, with, or in conjunction
with our products, or any other incurred cost. We
are not liable for, among other things, damages

Wood expands and contracts with its environment.
This may sometimes cause joints to crack open on
unfinished wood products. This natural reaction is
not considered to be a manufacturer defect and is
not covered by warranty. If you anticipate this
reaction, it may be minimized by applying a sealer
and top coat to the items as soon as they arrive
or by storing them in a low humidity, stable
environment. It is also highly recommended that
all wood products be equally finished on both
sides.
Size tolerance on doors and drawers boxes will be
+/- 1/16". A warp or bow, not to exceed 1/8 inch
from diagonal corners, shall not be considered a
defect. Doors wider than 21 inches or longer than
39 inches are not warranted unless manufactured as
multi-panel doors. Drawer fronts and slab doors
larger than two square feet, are not warranted
against warping or bowing.
Eagle Bay Cabinet Doors & Drawers reserves the
right to have defective products returned for our
inspection and claim approval. Upon approving
a warranty claim, Eagle Bay Cabinet Doors &
Drawers, at our discretion, will repair/replace
the defective product or refund the original cost
of the product. Eagle Bay Cabinet Doors & Drawers

of defective products as they were originally
ordered and ship as soon as possible. Eagle Bay
Cabinet Doors & Drawers will not be liable for
costs incurred by the customer for finishing,
