By using our website and working with Custom Cages UK Limited, you are bound by the following Terms & Conditions.

In-House Fitting at Custom Cages

A non-refundable deposit is required to confirm your booking along with an agreed drop off date. No guarantees are provided to commence work without a deposit or Senior Management approval.

  • The deposit is used to allow works to commence prior to the car’s arrival, including the allocation of engineering time, kit/part production and fabricators time.
  • Advised fitting times are estimated at the time of booking, lead times can change due to unforeseen circumstances. We will communicate any delays at the earliest opportunity..
  • Chassis (unless prior senior approval) need to be fully stripped including all interiors trims, panels and linings, wiring looms, fuel tanks/cells, glass including windscreen, doors removed (unless they are required for door bar fitment) engines removed. The chassis can be left rolling or on a trolley/dolly.
  • Any items not removed are liable to be damaged during the fabrication process. Custom Cages will take every precaution to avoid any damage but cannot be liable for damages resulting from the Roll Cage process.
  • During the installation process cutting, grinding, drilling, linishing and welding are just some of the processes involved. This is in close proximity to the vehicle chassis and body panels, the heat involved in localised areas can create burn marks on the paint or composite panels. Every possible measure is taken to reduce this but on rare occasions this can be visible, Custom Cages are not liable for any such damage due to the nature of the fabrication process.
  • Any additional fabrications requests not included with the original booking and quote will be reviewed and quoted individually. Custom Cages will always attempt to accommodate additional works but acceptance will be based on available time and work requirements.
  • Please communicate any unique features that need to be taken extra care of while the chassis is with Custom Cages, including historical transfers, signatures, scrutineer passes etc…
  • If there are any special requests and timelines please communicate this at the earliest opportunity, we will always endeavour to meet your timeline where possible.
  • Custom Cages will keep you updated during the installation process and provide an estimated completion date at the earliest opportunity.
  • We would kindly ask that chassis are collected within 2-3 working days of completion as storage space is limited.
