Home/Warranty

No Questions Asked Warranty

We are pleased to offer Norman’s No Questions Asked (NQA) Warranty, providing customers with real confidence when they purchase quality Norman shutter, blind, and shade products, made available only through Norman. It is the warranty that even covers life’s little mishaps. If they break it, we’ll offer a like-for-like replacement, for free, with no questions asked!

Norman may use similar materials to produce the replacement, and it may not be identical to the original order. Norman’s NQA Warranty provides consumers with a one-time replacement for the same product should it become damaged, defective, or inoperable after the point of installation.

  • A one-time, like-for-like replacement
  • Covers damage, defects and faults after installation
  • Covers the product that houses the motorisation

How does it work?

Eligible orders

The warranty applies to orders placed with Norman from the 1st of October 2026, for all Shutter programmes, Portrait Honeycomb Shades, SmartPrivacy Wood and Fauxwood blinds, CityLights blinds, Soluna Roller Shades, Roman Shades and SmartDrape products.

Warranty period

The warranty period commences from the shipment date indicated on the order, which can be found on the Norman portal.

What is not covered

Norman’s NQA Warranty does not cover colourfastness, products that have transferred ownership, been misused, modified, improperly measured, or damaged during installation.

It does not cover motorisation, battery replacements, or other accessories, but does cover the product the motorisation is in. It is not able to be claimed for any showroom, display, or sample product.

Products that are ordered outside of Norman product specifications, and have “waived warranty”, are not covered by the NQA Warranty.

Replacements

Products replaced under this warranty must be the same as the original order placed with Norman. All programme, material, colour, size, rotation etc. details must remain the same and are ineligible for change without a charge.

Our right to decline

If Norman concludes that a replacement will not solve the warranty claim, and the appearance and operation follow our product specifications, we reserve the right to decline supply of the replacement product.

From time to time we may request photos of the non-conforming, defective, or damaged product to improve our product design, production systems and quality control procedures.

Costs not included

Trip and labour costs associated with the reinstallation, and express shipping fees are not included in the warranty.

General Warranty

Norman offers a comprehensive General Warranty on all our quality shutter, blind, and shade products. This warranty requires the Retail Partner to provide sufficient evidence showing any product fault for Norman to proceed with the remake at no charge. Without sufficient evidence, the Retail Partner will have to reorder the product at a charge and will be invoiced accordingly.

What is covered?

Not covered

Products that are ordered outside of Norman product specifications with “waived warranty” and SmartDrape batteries are not covered by the General Warranty.

Costs and shipping

Trip and labour costs associated with the reinstallation, and express shipping fees are not included in the warranty. Replacement products will be shipped via the original order shipping method but can be upgraded to airfreight at a charge.

Shipping damage

For shipping damage claims, please submit a remake request under Norman’s Return Goods Authority (RGA) process within 21 days for seafreight or airfreight from receipt of goods. Please report all shipping damage and provide clear photographic evidence showing any issues at the time of claim submission.

Claims made after these timeframes, or submitted without photographic evidence, cannot be processed as RGA remakes. These claims will be reviewed under Norman’s No Questions Asked (NQA) Warranty instead, provided they meet the warranty’s eligibility requirements. Claims that do not qualify under either the RGA policy or NQA warranty will be treated as reorders at a charge.
