How to Proceed if You Have Product Issues:

How to place a claim:

Customer Obligations:

  1. If you experience issues that you believe are subject to the warranty, first contact your DuraMag dealer/installer.

  2. You must inform DuraMag of any claims within 30 days of discovery and immediately if they are structural issues. Failure to report a structural warranty issue, when recognized, will void your warranty.
  3. DO NOT start the repair process prior to obtaining a written repair authorization from DuraMag detailing the work to be performed and who is authorized to do the repair, including an approved dollar amount. No warranty repair will be paid without the prior issuance of this repair authorization.

Remedies:

At DuraMag’s sole discretion, DuraMag will repair or replace any product determined by DuraMag to be defective and subject to this warranty.
