Can I buy samples and return them if they are not suitable?

Yes - just order your samples as desired and then return any unwanted items to our return address and we'll issue a refund.

If you go ahead and place a larger order, we will refund the original shipping costs on the sample order. Just get in touch to let us know if this is the case.

How do I know if Plank Hardware brass colour will match my other brass home accessories?

Our handles are solid brass with a clear lacquer and so should match with other solid brass homewares. You can always order a sample to check, and then return it if it is not suitable.

How does worldwide delivery work?

If you are shopping with us from another country, when you visit our website you will be able to select to view prices in your home currency by using the flag selector. You may also see some information about our shipping options displayed in the national language of the country you are shopping from.

The prices displayed may include additional amounts to cover taxes and duties applicable to your country, so that you don't have to deal with customs paperwork or make any payments to the local authorities in order to clear your parcel for delivery to you.

At the checkout, when you place your order, you will be transacting with Global-E, our international shipping partner. They will become the merchant of record on the transaction and will handle all of the customs paperwork and any applicable taxes and duties.

You can check out Global-E's terms and conditions here.

Depending on your shipping country, our checkout will show you payment methods available in your location. We do not hold any of your bank details.

Our worldwide orders may take between 3-9 working days after dispatch, depending on the destination and the shipping option selected at checkout. When making your selection, an estimated timeframe will be displayed.
