Subject to the terms and conditions below, customers purchasing Midnight Anytime Blinds supplied and installed by Into Blinds Pty Ltd ACN 137 456 672 (Into Blinds) acknowledge and agree to the following specifications, limitations, installation conditions, and warranty information relating to the product.

It is important that you read this document carefully and in its entirety before proceeding with your order.

Product Specifications

2.1 Midnight Anytime Blinds are designed to provide approximately 99% block out under normal installation and operating conditions. Due to light gaps, environmental conditions, surrounding surfaces, and installation limitations, 100% block out cannot be guaranteed.

2.2 Midnight Anytime Blinds are motorised products only and cannot be operated manually by chain or hand operation.

2.3 Into Blinds does not provide outfit for Midnight Anytime Blinds.

2.4 Customers acknowledge that airflow and air conditioning conditions may affect the operation and appearance of the blinds. Blinds installed within Midnight pelmets may require the blind to remain slightly raised to allow airflow beneath the base rail. Insufficient airflow may cause the fabric to move toward the window surface, which may result in creasing, fabric movement, or reduced block out performance.

2.5 Pelmet end caps are supplied in black only and cannot be customised, modified, or colour matched.

Installation Conditions

3.1 Midnight Anytime Blinds cannot be installed into tile or brick surfaces.

3.2 Into Blinds will assess installation suitability during the check measure and installation process; however, Into Blinds does not guarantee the structural integrity, strength, or suitability of existing building materials or substrates including, but not limited to, plaster, timber, aluminium, gyprock, brick, concrete, masonry, or surrounding structures.

4.3 Into Blinds will make reasonable efforts to accommodate customer availability when scheduling installation appointments. Customers acknowledge that some flexibility may be required due to scheduling and operational requirements.

Australian Consumer Law

6. General Exclusions

Despite anything in this document, and in addition to the product-specific exclusions, the Warranty does not apply to the following:

Goods ordered prior to 9 February 2012, in which case a one year warranty applies to all Goods on the terms set out in this Warranty;
Goods that have not yet been paid for in full (other than where third party credit has been provided);
normal wear and tear of the Goods;
failure to follow any procedures specified or recommended by Into Blinds;

failure by the client to properly measure windows or doors, or supply of incorrect measurements by the client; or
failure by the client to properly install any self-installed Goods; or
consequential loss, whether direct, indirect or economic and whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise.

7. To make a Warranty Claim

7.1 Making a Warranty Claim

To make a Warranty claim, a client must, within 14 days of discovering a defect in the Goods:

advise Into Blinds of the details of the defect; and
provide to Into Blinds details of the purchase of the Goods and proof of purchase reasonably acceptable to Into Blinds.

7.2 Service Fee

Into Blinds will charge a $110.00 service fee (Service Fee) to attend a client's premises to inspect Goods that are the subject of a Warranty claim.
The Service Fee will be refunded if:
the alleged defect is covered under this Warranty and the Warranty claim is made within 12 months of installation; or
a consumer guarantee applies under the Australian Consumer Law (see clause 9).
If the alleged defect is not covered under this Warranty or by a consumer guarantee under the Australian Consumer Law, or a Warranty claim is made later than 12 months after installation, the service fee will not be refunded and the client will also be required to pay the cost of labour and parts.

7.3 Repair or replacement

If the Warranty or a consumer guarantee applies, Into Blinds will arrange with the client for the rectification of the alleged defect to be carried out, or (at Into Blinds' option) for new Goods to be installed. Into Blinds will not be responsible for any costs incurred by the client in notifying Into Blinds of the defect in the Goods.

7.4 No extension to Warranty period

Repairs carried out or replacements provided under this Warranty do not extend the relevant warranty period, and do not initiate a new warranty period. The warranty period for any replacement parts or new Goods installed will end together with the initial Warranty.

8. Things you should know

There will be gaps between the edge of your Blinds and your architraves, if your blinds are mounted on the inside on the window frame, meet in the corner, or butt together.
Your windows may not be perfectly square and your Blinds may not always sit straight or perfectly flat if this is the case.
If you operate your Blinds up and down gently, this will help for the long term life of your Blinds.
Into Blinds does not advise clients to install Roman Blinds on doors due to the fact that the height will take up the percentage of the doors and there is a chance you may brush your head against the bottom panel. We strongly advise the installation of Roller Blinds on doors as an alternative. Into blinds do not recommend chain operated roman blinds and do not provide a warranty for fraying fabrics if chains are requested.
Venetian Blinds are not designed to be lifted up and down on a regular basis. To get the most life out of your Venetian Blinds, we therefore advise to open Venetian Blinds by tilting the slats horizontally rather than lifting the blinds completely.
It is required by law to have child safety locks installed with your blinds. All of Into Blinds' installations are installed with child safety locks.
Subject to the Australian Consumer Law, Into Blinds' responsibility under this Warranty will not exceed the purchase price of the Goods or their replacement.
The benefits given by this Warranty are in addition to other rights and remedies you may have under a law in relation to the goods to which the Warranty relates.
In the event of damage at your property Into Blinds will patch/putty holes or cracks only, we will not be responsible for painting.

9. Australian Consumer Law

The Goods and their installation come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. Any exclusions in this Warranty are subject to the Australian Consumer Law, and this Warranty does not override or alter your rights under the Australian Consumer Law. The client is entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. The client is also entitled to have the Goods repaired or replaced if the Goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
Where a failure does not amount to a major failure, Into Blinds will provide, at Into Blinds' option, a repair, replacement or refund for the Goods. If the Goods are, or a component of the Goods is, no longer available and the Goods cannot be repaired, Into Blinds will, in its absolute discretion, replace the Goods with a substitute item.

Cleaning Your Blinds.

1. We recommend a regular dusting of your blinds using a feather duster to prevent any dust build up. 2. For common dirt and marks we recommend using a sponge soaked in lukewarm water and gently treating the area. 3.

Before any decision regarding flaws can be made, the customer must deliver the blind/s mentioned in its original packaging to our store to be assessed by the supplier of fabric. No goods are to be left with the customer.

Returned Goods

Into Blinds will only accept returned goods with prior authorisation.

No claims for damage or defects will be recognised after 7 days from collection/delivery of the finished goods from our store.

Upon return to Into Blinds, the goods must arrive in appropriate packaging and will be inspected by a staff member. When goods are returned to our factory, an Order form MUST be accompanied with the goods and a copy to be emailed or faxed to our office.

Track Blinds

Care and maintenance

As a rule, Trackblinds will perform better when used regularly and not left up for long periods. Should you use infrequently you may find that the fabric may show pressure marks and may need time to re-settle.
To operate at its best, Trackblinds need to be clean and free of debris. It is recommended to periodically hose out at normal tap pressure, the exposed extrusions with clean water and allowed to dry.
Should the tracks need lubrication, silicon spray is recommended however it must be used in accordance with the silicone spray suppliers’ recommendations, which includes testing a small inconspicuous area first to ensure no detrimental side effects.
Use a soft brush or cloth to clean the hardware. Never use abrasive sponges or solvent type cleaners (turps, kerosene, paint thinners) on componentry or Powder Coated surfaces. Using such agents will void the warranty.

Track Care

Trackblind will perform better when used regularly and not left up for long periods.
Should you only use your Trackblind occasionally, the fabric may need a little time to re-settle.
To keep the tracks clean and free of debris, it is recommended to periodically hose out with clean water and allow to dry.
Should the tracks need lubrication, silicon spray is recommended.
Use a soft brush or cloth to clean the hardware. Never use abrasive sponges or solvent type cleaners (turps, kerosene, paint thinners) on componentry or Powder Coated surfaces.

Fabric Care

While not responsible for any fabrics used on the Trackblind, the way a fabric is maintained will contribute to the overall performance of the system. Fabrics can retain a memory so leaving the blind down for a period of time will generally re-settle the fabric.
In the absence of specific care instructions from the fabric supplier, most external fabrics can be washed with a hose at normal tap pressure. A soft cloth or brush with a very mild detergent could also be used.
An outdoor cleaning glove may be helpful in removing any dirt if used with mild pressure taking care to not stretch or leave marks on the fabric. A chamois may help dry and polish Mesh or PVC fabrics. Never use high pressure cleaners or harsh chemicals on your fabrics.
While regular washing and maintenance is recommended to ensure your Trackblind operates at its best, it is important to let your blinds dry out properly before rolling them up to avoid mould or deterioration.

Extreme Weather

Trackblinds are designed to perform and will handle moderate winds, however, common sense should prevail.

All Trackblinds should be taken up in the event of a storm or extreme wind environment. They should never be left at half way position during such weather events and, if necessary to operate in windy conditions, ensure they are brought up individually to avoid a large gust of wind in an enclosed area.

Track Blinds are backed with a 5 year warranty on parts.
All mesh fabrics 95 & 99 come with 5 years Warranty.
Pvc clear or tint come with a 2 year warranty.
Warranty does not cover damage arising from misuse, lack of maintenance, incorrect installation, or adverse weather conditions.

This Warranty is provided by Into Blinds Pty Ltd.
