Step-by-Step Guide: How to Claim the Warranty on Hunter Douglas Products
1. Review the Warranty Terms:
Before proceeding, familiarize yourself with the warranty terms for your Hunter Douglas product. Hunter Douglas provides a Limited Lifetime Warranty on most of their products, but specific coverage may vary depending on the product category (e.g., shades, blinds, shutters).
Make sure that your product falls within the warranty period and that the issue you’re experiencing is covered by the warranty.
2. Gather Your Documentation:
Ensure that you have the following information ready:
Proof of purchase: A copy of the receipt or invoice for the product.
Product details: Including the name of the product, model number, and serial number (if available).
Photos of the issue: Clear images of the product, showing the damage or issue you're experiencing. This helps Hunter Douglas determine the problem more effectively.
3. Contact the Dealer or Retailer:
The first point of contact should typically be the dealer or retailer where you purchased the product.
Provide them with your product details and documentation. The dealer may be able to resolve the issue or guide you through the next steps.
4. Contact Hunter Douglas Customer Service:
If you're unable to resolve the issue through the dealer, you can contact Hunter Douglas Customer Service directly.

Additional Tips:
Act Promptly: Warranty claims should be filed as soon as you notice an issue, ideally within the warranty period, as some problems can worsen over time.
