This policy explains the conditions under which products purchased from Sky’s No Limit® (SNL) may be returned, repaired, replaced or refunded. It applies to purchases made via our website and e-commerce platform (www.skys-nolimit.com.au).
2. Australian Consumer Law
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL).
- If a product has a major failure, the customer has the legal right to choose a refund, replacement, or repair.
- If it's a minor failure, SNL may choose to repair or replace the product. A problem is considered minor if it can be easily repaired within a reasonable amount of time and does not significantly affect the product's use.
- Refunds will be issued in the same form as the original payment.
3. Change of Mind Returns
Due to the technical, safety-critical and specialised nature of SNL products (including powered ascenders and rope-access systems), change of mind returns are not generally accepted.
SNL may, at its discretion, accept a change-of-mind return where:
- The product is unused, unopened and in original packaging
- The return request is made within 7 days of delivery
- The product has not been installed, used, or exposed to site conditions
- Proof of purchase is provided
If approved:
- The customer is responsible for all return shipping costs
- A restocking fee (if applicable) may apply
- Refunds are processed in accordance with Section 2
4. Faulty, Damaged or Incorrect Items
If a product is:

You must notify SNL:
- Within 48 hours of delivery (visible damage), or
- As soon as reasonably practicable after identifying the issue
SNL may request:
- Photos or videos
- Serial numbers or identification details
- Description of the issue
- Return of the product for inspection
SNL will assess whether the issue constitutes a major or minor failure under ACL.
Any photos, videos, serial numbers or other personal information provided as part of a return, repair or refund request will be handled in accordance with the SNL Privacy Policy.
