Trapezium Industrial Legs

Find out when to expect your order and how to track it. Delivery times and options depend on what you order and where it’s going.

At a glance

• When will it arrive? Most in-stock items ordered before 3pm UK time on a working day dispatch that day. See delivery times.
• What will it cost? Checkout calculates delivery for your basket and address, including any free delivery. See delivery options.
• Where is my order? Every dispatched order has a tracking number and link. Get help with a delivery.
• Outside the UK? See international delivery.

Delivery times

Standard UK delivery usually takes 1–4 days after dispatch, with most orders arriving next day.

Tops, pre-drilling, cutting or a booked delivery can need longer. For UK delivery, each product page has a live counter showing expected dispatch and delivery dates for your selected options. Check it after making your choices; any longer timing shown applies.

For all destinations, checkout gives the expected date or range for your order. If timing is unclear or you need an item for a particular date, contact us before ordering. Delivery dates are estimates.

Delivery options and couriers

Next-day, Saturday and AM upgrades are available where offered at checkout. Choose the service you need before paying.

Our main UK couriers are DPD, DHL Express and DHL Parcel. The carrier depends on your order and address; your tracking link shows who is delivering.

For a PO Box or military address, or if checkout offers no suitable service, contact us before ordering.

International delivery

We use DHL Express. Delivery costs depend on your basket and address and are calculated at checkout.

Transit is usually 2–4 days to Europe and around 3–7 days to the USA after dispatch. Use the date or range at checkout for your order; the live product-page counter covers UK delivery only. If your item needs work and the timing is unclear, contact us before ordering.

We prepay taxes on EU shipments, so most EU customers have no further import bill. Extra charges can still arise in some cases, including deliveries to business addresses in Germany. Contact us if you receive an unexpected charge.

Outside the EU, import duties and taxes may be payable on arrival unless checkout says they are included. Customs checks can affect delivery time.

Tracking and delivery help

Use the tracking link in your dispatch email, or contact us with your order number for an update. We can also help if something is late, missing or incorrect.

Check items on arrival, ideally before assembly. If anything is damaged, send photos of the item and packaging where possible. Please report damage within seven days if you can; this does not limit your legal rights.

For returns, see our Returns & refunds policy.

We offer 60-day returns on eligible consumer purchases from hairpin.com. Your legal rights are unaffected.

At a glance

• Can I return it? Send eligible unused items back within 60 days of purchase. Check what's covered.
• How, and who pays? Email us with your order number. Eligible mainland UK returns have free labels. See the steps and costs.
• Something wrong? We will put it right and cover appropriate return costs. Get help.
• Custom or pre-drilled item? Some change-of-mind terms differ. Check the exceptions.

Our 60-day returns offer

Send eligible items back within 60 days of purchase, new, unused and complete with original labels, instructions and included parts.

Unmodified stock parts qualify, including undrilled configurator tops and legs. Pre-drilled named sets also qualify. The offer excludes assembled furniture, individually made items and pre-drilled configurator tops. Custom-work details explain the differences.

We may decline returns outside these conditions or offer a reduced refund, explaining any deduction or delivery cost first. Legal cancellation rights remain unaffected.

For a partial return, tell us what you want to keep. Each item follows its own terms. We will explain the refund; discount adjustments apply only where disclosed before purchase and lawful, without reducing your statutory entitlement.

How to return an item and return costs

1. Email hello@hairpin.com with your order number and items to return. We will promptly provide the return address, instructions and a Return Authorisation (RMA) number.
2. Keep and reuse original packaging where possible. Pack securely and include the RMA number if supplied. Inadequate packing may affect your refund where lawful.

You do not need permission or an RMA to give valid legal cancellation notice. We may offer an alternative, but accepting it is optional.

Free mainland UK labels

Use our supplied labels, which you must print. Eligible 60-day returns qualify, including pre-drilled named sets. Excluded items, such as pre-drilled configurator and individually cut-down tops, have no free change-of-mind label.

Labels may also be unavailable for:

• Orders outside mainland UK.
• Orders under £15 or over £1,000.
• Shipments over 70kg.
• More than three returns per customer within 30 days.
• Clearance items, where stated.

A statutory cancellation right does not itself qualify an excluded item for a free label. Where no free label applies, you pay direct change-of-mind return costs only if we gave the required information before purchase, including an estimate for goods not normally returnable by post. Otherwise, we pay.

We cover appropriate return costs for faults; goodwill shipping terms are agreed before acceptance. For your own courier, use tracking, keep proof and consider insurance for higher-value items. You remain responsible until receipt, subject to legal rights.

Faults and product care

Check your order on arrival, ideally before assembly. Email us with your order number and photos of the problem and packaging where possible. Report delivery damage within seven days if possible; this does not limit legal rights.

For faulty, damaged, misdrilled or incorrect goods, we provide the legally required repair, replacement or refund and arrange or cover appropriate return costs. Assembly, missing packaging, customisation or completed work does not remove these rights.

Raw steel legs can rust when unpainted or stored in humid conditions. They should arrive protected for transit and storage; unfinished steel may need periodic cleaning and protection. Zinc and stainless steel legs suit outdoor use. Other products are not outdoor-rated unless stated on their product page. Damage from unsuitable storage or use is not normally a fault, but contact us about unacceptable condition on arrival or a suspected fault.

Custom work and pre-drilled tops

Measure your space and check the top size and leg positions before requesting drilling or cutting. A worked top may be difficult to reuse. Ask us before ordering if unsure.

• Named sets: a complete top-and-legs set sold together on one product page qualifies for 60-day returns, including pre-drilling. See our desks, dining tables and coffee tables. A top alone is not a set.
• Configurator: combine any stocked top and legs. Undrilled parts qualify for 60 days. A top drilled for your chosen legs and positions does not, even when identical to a named set. Eligible stock legs still qualify.
• Individual work: cut-down to requested dimensions or individual drilling can qualify for the made-to-specification exemption. Where it applies, no statutory change-of-mind cancellation is available, and we do not offer these returns as standard, even before work starts. Contact us promptly about changes.

Standard choices alone do not make goods bespoke. Some drilled tops retain legal 14-day cancellation even for a simple change of mind; classification depends on the specification and work. Before payment, we will show applicable restrictions and confirm drilling, fit and measurements. An item's restriction does not remove another's rights.

If the result is not right, contact us. We may offer a goodwill return for a reusable top, or alteration or discounted replacement otherwise. These are not guaranteed. Any offer before purchase or after delivery records the covered item, period, fees and shipping terms before acceptance. Legal rights always apply.

Drilling and cutting fees

Pre-drilling is £15 per top; cutting charges are agreed before purchase.

• Statutory cancellation of the top: we refund its drilling fee, including completed, correct work.
• 60-day named-set return: completed, correct drilling is retained if disclosed before purchase.
• Goodwill return: completed, correct drilling is retained unless agreed otherwise; cutting-fee terms are agreed before acceptance.
• Unstarted work: if we agree cancellation before work starts, its fee is fully refunded.
• Incorrect work: legal remedies apply, including correction, replacement or refund.

Statutory refunds override voluntary fee terms. A fee refund does not itself cancel bespoke goods. Returning legs alone does not refund the top's work.

Refunds and original delivery charges

Statutory cancellation of a whole order includes a standard-delivery refund, even when you pay return postage. Extra delivery upgrades need not be refunded. Original delivery is not refunded under the extra 60-day offer unless legally required; we explain any partial-order delivery refund.

Refunds use your original payment method unless agreed otherwise. For statutory goods cancellation, we refund within 14 days of receiving the goods or evidence of sending them back, whichever is earlier. With no goods to return, this is normally within 14 days of cancellation. No statutory restocking fee applies; lawful deductions are explained.

Your legal cancellation rights

Where statutory cancellation applies, you can cancel from ordering until 14 days after the day of receipt, normally the last item for split deliveries. Give clear notice before that deadline, then send goods back within 14 days of notice. No reason, particular form or team approval is required. Email us or use any other clear statement; do not wait for our reply to give notice.

You may inspect goods as in a shop. Where lawful, we may deduct lost value from handling beyond checking their nature, characteristics and function. Assembly or use does not automatically remove cancellation rights. Original packaging is not required to exercise them.

At The Hairpin Leg Co., we’re committed to quality. Outdoor environments vary widely, and different materials perform very differently depending on conditions. That’s why our Outdoor Guarantee is tailored specifically to the product type and its intended use.

Products Covered

This guarantee is applicable to products sold for outdoor use, including:

• Outdoor Industrial Style Table Legs

Note: All products link to their respective guarantees via the main bullet points at the top of the page.

Transparency Matters

We believe in giving you the full picture. Most outdoor furniture on the market—unless you're spending thousands—is made from coated steel, known as residential grade. It offers a great balance of performance and cost.

Real-world performance depends on both usage and location. A table in a sheltered patio will last far longer than one exposed year-round in a coastal garden. These factors affect only a small number of customers, but we think it’s important to be clear—so you know what to expect and how to get the best from your furniture.

Understanding Outdoor Use

There’s a big difference between commercial-grade and residential-grade outdoor furniture:

• Commercial Grade – Typically made from rust-resistant materials like stainless steel, galvanised steel or aluminium. Colour finishes are purely aesthetic, and these products can often last 20+ years—even in harsh environments like coastal locations.
• Residential Grade – Made from durable, powder-coated mild steel. The powder coating provides both the colour and protection. If this coating is chipped or damaged, the exposed steel underneath can rust.

Our Residential Outdoor Guarantee

We offer a 2-Year Guarantee on our residential-grade outdoor products, subject to the following conditions:

• Location – Applies only in non-coastal areas (5 miles inland+), where salt levels in the air are less elevated.
• Use Case – For residential/home use only. Commercial use is not covered under this guarantee.
• Maintenance – Chips and scratches should be touched up with outdoor paint to prevent rusting of the underlying steel.
• Fixings – Use only outdoor-grade hardware such as stainless steel screws, washers, and protective feet.
• Placement – Products should be used on solid surfaces like patios or decking. Soft ground (e.g. gravel, soil, bark) will make the protective feet ineffective.

Real-World Performance

Outdoor furniture made from powder-coated mild steel performs well across a wide range of environments—but care and conditions matter:

• In harsher climates (coastal / industrial) or with poor maintenance, light surface rust may appear within 6 months.
• In sheltered outdoor spaces, items can last 10+ years with minimal wear.
• In most home settings, two years of reliable outdoor use is easily achievable.
• Even if rust appears, it typically does not affect structural strength for many years.
• And even after long periods of neglect, items can usually be restored with a simple touch-up and some care.

Outdoor Care Guide

• Use within the intended limits of the guarantee (e.g. non-coastal, residential settings).
• Touch up any scratches, chips, or worn areas using an outdoor-suitable paint like Hammerite. This can be applied even over minor rust.
• Cover furniture during the winter to reduce weather exposure.
• Avoid standing water or consistently damp environments.
