To ensure a smooth installation process, please bet sure to fully inspect your fixture prior to your electrician installation date to be sure that all parts are present in the shipment. Unfortunately we are unable to reimburse the costs of rescheduling contractors/ electricians. Please see the damaged/ missing items section for more info.  

Fixture cleaning should be done on an "as needed" basis and no less than once per year to insure proper
function and structural integrity.

Fixtures should be turned off or disconnected from the power supply when being cleaned to prevent
electrical shock. Use extreme care when cleaning near wire, sockets or other electrical components to
insure that they remain dry and free of moisture.

Painted finishes, plated finishes and metal finishes with a clear lacquer topcoat should be cleaned using a
soft, non-scratching cloth. The cloth can be dampened in plain water or a mild, non-corrosive, non-abrasive
soap and water solution. Do NOT clean fixtures with any cleansers containing bleaches, acids, or abrasives
of any kind.

Acrylic and/or resin lenses can be cleaned using a soft, non-scratching cloth which may be dampened in
plain water or a mild, non-corrosive, non-abrasive soap and water solution. Do NOT clean lenses with any
cleansers containing bleaches, acids or abrasives of any kind. WindexTM or other glass cleanser should not
be used except on glass only. However, the lens must be removed from the fixture to prevent overspray
onto the adjacent metal finishes or else the finish may be become damaged.

Fabric shades should be gently dusted or cleaned with a clean cloth or upholstery brush or vacuum
attachment on a regular basis. The shades are fragile and care needs to be taken not to indent or damage
them.

Unfortunately fragile items are sometimes damaged in transit to your location. In order to ensure a safe delivery and full satisfaction of your light fixture, we ask that you carefully examine all of your items and their respective parts individually once they arrive so that any damages can be properly reported and resolved. Please note that all of our fixtures are installed and lit up once prior to shipping to you in order to ensure functionality and quality. Evidence of an install should be expected and will not qualify for a damage claim. Damages/ imperfections that are internal or do not show once the fixture is fully assembled may not qualify for a damage claim.

To report a damaged or missing item please follow the instructions below:

1. Prior to reporting a missing or damaged item, please speak with all team members and contractors to be sure items have not been misplaced or damaged during installation.
2. Email info@vault-light.com or call (888) 399-9905 to open a claim, and detail the issues. Please include all affected parts and detail the quantity of each affected part.
3. You must provide photos of any damages, along with photos of the product packaging.

In most cases we're able to repair damages or send replacement parts. When this is the case, we reserve the right to use this as a solution rather than replace an entire fixture, or refund the full amount of the fixture.
