1.) General:
a) By placing an order, the Buyer accepts the Terms and Conditions for the supply of goods published by the Seller. The relationship between Buyer and Seller is governed by these Terms and Conditions, which are binding on both parties unless otherwise agreed in the contract. These Terms and Conditions further define the rights and obligations of the Seller (UMAKOV CZ s.r.o.) and its customers (Buyers), and in their current wording they form the content of the purchase contract or its integral part.
b) If the parties have not concluded a written purchase contract, the Seller shall supply the goods on the basis of the electronic order placed via www.umakov.cz. Consumable materials are not personal protective equipment.

2.) Subject of the Contract
The subject of the contract is only the items listed in the purchase contract – the order (hereinafter “Goods”). Weights, dimensions, capacity, prices, performance and other data (texts, notes, …) on www.umakov.cz, in catalogues, brochures, on CDs or other forms are non-binding unless expressly stated as binding in the contract. Standard tolerances are ± 5 % (dimensional, length, quantity, permissible deviation when ordering full packs, …).

UMAKOV CZ s.r.o. (hereinafter “Seller”) undertakes to supply its customers with:

goods free of defects in accordance with the Seller’s specifications or with properties usual for the type of goods;

goods compliant with standards, regulations and laws in force in the relevant territory;

specialised goods (e.g. automatic gate drives, …) equipped with operating instructions and warranty certificates.

The correctness of the choice of Goods or their variant (which may affect subsequent installation or the Buyer’s pricing proposals) is the sole responsibility of the Buyer. The Buyer does not require the Seller to anticipate their needs in this respect.

The Buyer also acknowledges that, for example, when purchasing glass clamps that hold the glass other than from the bottom, there are two methods of fixing the glass in the clamp:
a) a cheaper version using only the clamp with rubber rings without drilling the glass;
b) a more expensive version using the clamp with rubber rings and additionally a safety pin requiring drilling into the glass.

Version (b) may be more expensive in the end for the Buyer (or their customers) because drilling into the glass is required, which raises the final cost. Since the Buyer must also purchase the safety pin, version (b) is only partially more expensive than version (a).

If the Buyer opts for the cheaper version (a), they are fully aware that during installation or use the glass may slip and be damaged.

The Seller is not obliged to specifically warn the Buyer of the above. The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Seller will not be liable for any damage resulting from the glass slipping.

The Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the Seller is not obliged to:
a) point out the various options for fixing the glass to the post;
b) determine where and under what conditions the goods will be installed;
c) determine whether the goods are suitable for the Buyer’s intended use.

The above also applies to similar situations.

3.) Place of Performance
The place of performance is the Seller’s warehouse or sales outlet. For personal collection, the Buyer must present proof of full payment. If goods are collected by an authorized person, they must present a power of attorney from the Buyer in their name and valid ID. The Buyer must inform the Seller in advance and be reachable by phone at the time of collection. The Seller may refuse to release the goods to an authorized person in case of doubt; any costs incurred (transport, storage, handling, etc.) shall be borne by the Buyer.

4.) Ordering Goods, Conclusion of Contract
a) An electronic order is valid only if all required fields in the form are completed. The order constitutes an offer to conclude a purchase contract. No formal confirmation by the Seller is required; the contract is concluded upon delivery of the goods. However, the Seller may in certain, especially higher-value cases, reserve the right to confirm the order.
b) Depending on the nature of the transaction (quantity, price, transport costs, distance, etc.), the Seller may require the Buyer to authorize the order, e.g. by phone or in writing. If the Buyer refuses to authorize the order as requested, the order is considered invalid.
c) If the parties have entered into a long-term framework written purchase contract, the electronic order further specifies and concretizes that contract and is its integral part.
d) Customers under a separate written contract enjoy the benefits agreed at contract signing, or those unilaterally offered by the Seller after signing, registration, and assignment of an individual discounted price list on www.umakov.cz.
e) Goods are reserved only when paid by cash on delivery, payment card, online payment terminal or personal collection. If paid by pro forma invoice, stock availability cannot be guaranteed between ordering and payment receipt, and goods are not reserved.

The Buyer undertakes to avoid any liability arising from delivery or non-delivery of goods under their order. This includes refraining from commitments to third parties (e.g. to deliver or install goods for a third party by a certain date) until the Buyer has inspected and accepted the goods without defects. If the Buyer breaches this duty, the Seller bears no liability for any loss incurred by the Buyer as a result.

5.) Price and Payment
Prices shown on www.umakov.cz are valid at the time of ordering. Prices in printed price lists are indicative. The Seller reserves the right to correct printing errors, make production, technological, shape or dimensional changes, innovate, adjust prices based on exchange rate changes, significant inflation, or major changes in supplier conditions.

The Seller reserves the right to correct the price before dispatch if an item was offered at an incorrect price. The Buyer must be informed and agree to the correction; otherwise, no contract is concluded and the order will be canceled.

The purchase price is deemed paid upon crediting of the total amount to the Seller’s account or payment in cash at the Seller’s premises. In case of late payment, the Buyer shall pay a contractual penalty of 0.5 % per day of the outstanding amount. The Seller retains ownership of the goods until full payment is received.

The invoice issued under the purchase contract is also a tax document. The Buyer may only collect the goods after full payment, unless otherwise agreed.

Delivery charges, according to the current schedule on www.umakov.cz, are added to the price of the goods. In case of partial shipment requests, each shipment is charged separately. For cash-on-delivery, the courier collects cash; card payment on delivery is not possible.

6.) Delivery Time, Transport Terms, Postage, Packaging

The delivery time begins on the day following receipt of a binding order, provided that all documents necessary for processing the delivery have been received.
If payment is made by pro forma invoice, the goods are dispatched after the payment has been credited to the Supplier’s account.
If the goods are in stock and the Buyer does not request any additional services (e.g. special packaging, surface treatment, material cutting, etc.), the Seller will normally dispatch them to the carrier within 1–2 business days. The carrier then guarantees delivery to the Buyer within:
- Typically within 2 business days: EXPRESS delivery.

The Seller undertakes to provide free transport for goods marked with the “transport discount” pictogram, on condition that the value of such goods exceeds CZK 5 000 (excl. VAT; CZK 6 050 incl. VAT).
Each order is assessed individually, and a transport discount may be granted even below this threshold.
Free transport does not apply to goods not marked with the “transport discount” pictogram.

For cash-on-delivery shipments, the courier collects the cash payment from the customer. Payment of the cash-on-delivery fee by payment card is not possible.

The cash-on-delivery fee is CZK 50 (excl. VAT; CZK 60.50 incl. VAT).

The Supplier does not arrange transport of sheet glass!
The Buyer may collect sheet glass at a branch or, by agreement, arrange their own transport (at their own risk).

For fragile goods or special packaging requirements, the Supplier may charge an additional packaging fee.

For any material cutting (sawing, shearing), a fee is charged (item code “delenie-…”). If goods are shipped on a non-returnable wooden pallet (item code “Q/paleta…”), the full pallet charge applies; the pallet cost will be refunded to the Buyer only if the pallet is returned in person to the branch that issued it. For any specific packaging, labeling, etc., a handling surcharge (item code “M”) will apply.

The delivery time will be extended appropriately if the delay is caused by force majeure or circumstances beyond the Seller’s control (e.g. production outage, supplier delay, etc.). For urgent orders, the Buyer may request written confirmation of the order from the Seller. If stocked goods in normal quantities are not available or cannot be delivered within 5 business days, the Seller will notify the Buyer of the expected delivery date along with a retail-price discount or offer a comparable substitute—subject to the Buyer’s consent. Delivery is deemed timely if the goods are ready for handover at the place of performance no later than the last day of the agreed or extended delivery period.

If the Seller is unable to dispatch stock goods to the Buyer within 30 calendar days (to the first carrier), the Seller is obliged to refund, without undue delay, all funds paid by the Buyer under the current order to the Buyer’s account. The Buyer must properly receive the goods from the carrier, check the integrity of the packaging and the number of parcels, and immediately report any defects to the carrier. The invoice and tax document are enclosed in the marked parcel.


7.) Right of Withdrawal by the Buyer
The Buyer has the right to withdraw from the contract within 14 days. The period runs from:
a) delivery of the goods for a single purchase contract;
b) delivery of the last instalment for contracts involving multiple goods or deliveries;
c) delivery of the first instalment for regular recurring supply contracts.

Upon withdrawal, the Buyer must return the goods at their expense without undue delay and no later than 14 days from withdrawal. Goods should be complete, undamaged, clean, ideally in their original packaging, and in the condition received.
To withdraw from the purchase contract, the Buyer may use the online form provided by the Seller on the Withdrawal from the Contract page. After the required details have been completed, the withdrawal from the purchase contract will be sent via the online interface. The Seller shall promptly confirm receipt of the form to the Buyer.
The Buyer is liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from handling other than necessary to establish the nature, characteristics, and functioning of the goods.

The Seller shall refund all received payments to the Buyer without undue delay and no later than 14 days from withdrawal, using the same payment method. The Seller may delay refund until receipt of the goods or proof of dispatch by the Buyer.

8.) Warranty, Service: Complaints Procedure
The warranty period starts upon delivery to the Buyer or end user. The Seller warrants the quality and completeness of the delivery. Goods come with a 24-month warranty unless another period is specified. Surface treatment warranty does not cover goods treated only with a base coat or un-finished surfaces.

The warranty does not cover post-installation glass fittings. The Buyer confirms they have read the maintenance instructions for stainless steel products. For deliveries including glass parts, the Seller guarantees uniform colour only for single-stage deliveries. In multi-stage deliveries or replacements, glass colour variations may occur, which the Buyer accepts. Warranty does not cover mechanical damage, building settlement, disregard of maintenance instructions, or failure to perform recommended preventive measures.

The warranty may be reduced or voided if the Buyer fails to maintain the goods per the Seller’s instructions, observe correct data (e.g. substrate stability), agreed conditions (dimensions, modifications), or changes the intended use.

Upon receipt, the Buyer must inspect goods and record defects with the carrier. Defect notifications must be made in writing and sent to the Seller without undue delay.

Complaints are governed by the Complaints Procedure and must be resolved within 30 days of receipt; for imported goods, within 60 days. The Buyer shall send defective goods to the Seller’s premises by courier, well-protected, including all accessories, a copy of the purchase document, detailed defect description, and contact details. The Buyer is entitled to reimbursement of reasonable costs (e.g. postage) actually and appropriately incurred. Returned goods are shipped back to the Buyer by the contracted carrier. In case of unjustified complaints, the Buyer bears all related costs.

Breaking protective seals, informational labels or serial numbers may lead to rejection of the complaint, unless damage occurred during normal use. Seals and serial numbers are part of the product and do not restrict the Buyer’s rights to use and handle it as intended.

The warranty does not cover damage caused by:

mechanical damage;

electrical surges (burnt components or circuits) except usual deviations;

use in unsuitable temperature, dust, humidity, chemical or mechanical conditions;

improper installation, handling, operation, or neglect;

overloading or use contrary to documentation or general principles;

unqualified modifications or parameter changes;

customer alterations (painting, bending, etc.) causing defects;

natural elements or force majeure.

10.) Final Provisions
These Terms and Conditions apply as published on the Seller’s website on the day the electronic order is placed, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Under a permanent contractual relationship (written framework agreement), the Buyer may withdraw if the terms change materially after signing. An order placed after such change implies acceptance of the new terms. Withdrawal is effective upon delivery to the Seller and does not apply to goods already surrendered to the carrier. By submitting an order, the Buyer unconditionally accepts all Terms and Conditions and the prices (including shipping and handling) valid on the order date, unless otherwise agreed. The order (offer) is irrevocable for the Buyer for the agreed delivery period. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, the parties’ rights and obligations are governed by the Czech Commercial Code.
