Arrived on time but was damaged in transit. It was replaced immediately at no cost with no fuss. if the courier lets you down Jupiter Blue won't. This is a good product from a good supplier.

I odered a 600 x 600 loft hatch to replace the old one in our 1930's house. It was easy to fit and very good quality. Having fitted the hatch and seeing how easy it was to fit I wish I had ordered a longer one. I was recommended this company by my brother and I would recommend them to others. Very quick delivery. I would have given 5 stars but I did'nt get the free handle.
