WARRANTY

that the Product does not have a defect covered by the warranty,
we may charge an inspection fee for any on-site inspection that
is required or requested by you. If it is determined that there
is a defect we will, at our option, repair the Product, or ship a
replacement Product to you in the same specification as the
original Product. If we elect not to provide a replacement, or if we
elect not to repair the Product, then we will refund the purchase
price to you. Replacement Products are warranted for the balance
of the original Product warranty or 90 days from date of shipment,
whichever is longer. This warranty gives you specific legal rights,
and you may have other rights that vary from state to state.
WHAT THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER…
We do not install the Products or replacement Products, nor
do we provide on-site assistance for removal or installation of
replacement Products. We do not warranty the installation of
the Products. Menards is not responsible for any warranty of the
Products.
We are not liable for damage to, or failure of, Products caused by
improper installation or factors beyond our control, including, but
not limited to, the following:
• Normal wear and tear, including normal wear and tear of
weatherstrip; natural weathering and fading of surfaces; pitting,
cracking, chipping, peeling, or fading of Product finishes.
• Minor variations in the color or texture between Products, parts,
and components provided by Boyd are not considered defects
and are not warranted.
• Normal wear and tear to hardware and naturally occurring
changes to hardware finishes (e.g., corrosion or tarnishing).
• Corrosion, pitting and loss of functionality of Products or any
portion thereof, due to exposure to chemicals (e.g. brick wash)
or a harsh or corrosive environment (e.g. salt spray or airborne
pollutants), and the performance of or absence of cleaning and
maintenance practices.
• Misuse, abuse or failure to properly finish and provide
maintenance.
• Alteration or modification of the Product (e.g. customer applied
tints or films, paint finishes, security systems).
• Installation into a condition that exceeds Product design
standards and/or certified performance specifications and/or is
not in compliance with building codes.
• Product failures caused by structure construction, structure
design, or excessive structure movement.
• Installation in high humidity environments, such as swimming
pool enclosures and greenhouses.
• Extreme artificial temperature buildup or exposure (e.g., where
storm windows are present).
• Hardware or inserts that are not provided by us, such as
locksets, handles, strikes, etc.
• Condensation or damage as a result of condensation.
• Glass breakage due to any cause, including, but not limited to,
breakage caused by stresses resulting from temperature
differential over the glass surfaces or edges.
• Screen damage due to normal wear and tear, misuse, abuse,
or insect or animal activity.
• Slight expansion or contraction of product components due to
varying environmental conditions; slab movement (shrinkage or
swelling) due to temperature and humidity.
• Slight imperfections or wavy distortions in the glass that don’t
impair structural integrity. Note: wavy distortions in the glass
(e.g. related to laminate interlayer or heat/tempered strengthen
ing of glass) are not considered a defect. Slight color variations
in glass are not considered a defect.
• Hairline cracks in factory-applied finishes; surface cracks that
do not compromise the underlying material are not a defect.
• Damage or distortion to other property, including, but not limited
to, vinyl siding, building components or landscaping, caused in
whole or in part, by reflection of light or heat from the Products.
• Normal wear and tear; problems due to misuse, abuse,
application of excessive loads or force; failure to follow the care
and maintenance instructions; or as a result of any cause
beyond our control (e.g. fire, flood, earthquake, other acts of
nature, or acts of third parties outside of our control).
• Loss or damage to materials in the vicinity of the Products; loss
or damage to other equipment or parts; loss or damage to other
property or materials; the cost to repair or replace the foregoing
other property; or the cost of labor to repair or replace the
Products.
• Cost for labor, installation, removal, or finishing of the
replacement Products. Boyd is not responsible for any
backcharges or other charges for any work performed relating
to the Products by the Covered Party or others, except when
authorized in writing by an officer of Boyd.
• Damage to the Products during transportation or installation.
• Damage caused by leakage, mold, fungi, bacteria, or other
environmental hazards.
• Damage caused by perimeter conditions such as caulking and
sealants, or similar products manufactured by others.
• Products used outside the Continental United States.
• Products that are damaged in handling or installation,
or damage resulting from failure to install the Products in
accordance with Boyd’s Installation Manual Guidelines available
at Boyd’s Menards.com vendor site.
• SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGE.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental
or consequential damages, so this may not apply to you.
