Warranty

10-Year Limited Warranty – Manitoba

Grass River Cabinets provides a ten (10) year limited warranty from the date of installation against defects in materials and workmanship for cabinets manufactured and/or installed by Grass River Cabinets, in accordance with the laws of the Province of Manitoba.

Cabinet Coverage

This warranty covers:

  • Cabinet boxes and structural components
  • Doors, drawer fronts, and drawer boxes
  • Cabinet assembly and installation workmanship

At its sole discretion, Grass River Cabinets will repair or replace any component determined to be defective with a comparable product.

Door Warping Coverage & Wood Movement

Grass River Cabinets recognizes that wood is a natural material and that minor movement may occur due to seasonal and environmental changes. This warranty does provide coverage for door warping when such warping exceeds acceptable industry tolerances under normal
residential conditions.

Door warping shall be considered warrantable when the measured warp exceeds 1/8 inch (3 mm) over a 24-inch span. Doors exhibiting warping within this tolerance are considered acceptable and are not deemed defective.

Warping, twisting, bowing, cracking, or joint separation caused by excessive humidity, extreme dryness, heat exposure, direct sunlight, water damage, or proximity to appliances is excluded from warranty coverage.

Hardware Warranty

Cabinet hardware, including hinges and drawer slides, is covered by a lifetime warranty provided by the hardware manufacturer.

“Lifetime warranty” refers to the expected service life of the hardware as defined by the manufacturer and applies only to defects in materials or workmanship under normal residential use. All hardware warranty claims are subject to the manufacturer’s terms, conditions, and approval.

Exclusions

This warranty does not cover:

  • Normal wear and tear
  • Cosmetic damage occurring after installation
  • Damage caused by misuse, abuse, accidents, or negligence
  • Damage caused by water, moisture, humidity, flooding, or steam
  • Damage caused by heat or improper appliance clearances
  • Modifications, repairs, or alterations performed by others
  • Hardware, hinges, or drawer slides beyond the manufacturer’s warranty

Wood and wood-based products are natural materials and may vary in grain, color, and finish. Changes due to aging, lighting, or environmental conditions are normal and are not considered defects.

Nothing in this warranty is intended to limit any rights available to consumers under applicable Manitoba consumer protection legislation.
