What you need to know about the alpscontrols.com Terms & Conditions,
and how it's impacted by product pricing and tariffs.

Due to evolving global tariffs and supplier pricing adjustments, we've updated our Terms & Conditions to better reflect the realities of today's market. While our quotes and website pricing are based on current supplier costs, those costs can change quickly — and in some cases, we may not be able to honor previously quoted pricing. This page outlines what you need to know and how to proceed if firm pricing is required for specific projects.

What does this mean for you?

Temporary change in how quotes are handled
Due to the current volatility in tariffs and global supply chain costs, we are temporarily adjusting how we handle pricing quotes. While our quotes typically include a 30-day validity period, during this period of uncertainty, they should be viewed as indicative only — not guaranteed — unless explicitly confirmed as firm.

Quoted pricing is subject to market conditions
Until the tariff environment stabilizes, supplier price increases may require us to adjust or revalidate quoted pricing at the time of order. We will always make every effort to honor the pricing provided, but there may be cases where that's not possible due to factors beyond our control.

Pricing reflects current conditions
Whether in our online marketplace or in a quote, pricing is based on supplier costs, raw materials, and tariff impacts at the moment it is issued.

Firm pricing may be available upon request
If your project requires locked-in pricing for budgeting or bid submission, we encourage you to reach out to us. We will contact the manufacturer on your behalf to request firm pricing. These requests are handled individually, and while we can't guarantee approval, we will do our best to support you.

Frequently asked questions

How do I know when a manufacturer might be raising their prices?
Our manufacturers let us know when a price adjustment is coming, and we do our best to pass that information along to you.
Take a look at this post on our blog to see a list of dates and upcoming increases that might impact your purchasing decisions.

Why might a quoted price not be honored within 30 days?
Quotes are based on conditions at the time they are issued. When supplier prices or tariffs shift suddenly, we may not be able to fulfill a quote at the originally stated price. This is a temporary situation, and we are actively monitoring it.

Can I lock in a price for my project?
Possibly. If you require firm pricing, we can reach out to the manufacturer to see if it can be secured for a defined period. This depends on the manufacturer and project specifics, and we handle these requests on a case-by-case basis.

What should I do before placing an order?
If you're referencing a quote, check with our team to confirm current pricing. You can also verify updated pricing on our website.
