UNITED STATES

All orders over $99 qualify for free ground shipping within the Contiguous United States and are processed and shipped per the estimated shipping date range shown at checkout. Additional processing time may been required for walk-through security metal detectors. This can be as much as 21-28 business days depending on the demand at the time of the order.  

Free ground shipping does not include a delivery time guarantee. They are shipped by a carrier of our choice. Our warehouse team will select the quickest and most cost efficient delivery method available to your location. If you need to specify a specific shipping vendor, your order will no longer qualify for this free shipping offer.

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING

Shipping costs can be calculated using our shipping calculator once the products have been placed into the shopping cart at checkout. We do not mark up our shipping costs at all. The rates you see are the rates the carrier charges us. 

Duties and fees may apply to your order and will vary based upon country of destination, items ordered, and shipping method required. You, the customer, are responsible for all shipping and import fees associated with your order including return shipping if the import fees are not paid in a timely manner and the order is returned.

It usually takes from 3-10 business days for an international shipment to arrive depending on your country. Actual number of days may vary based on origin, destination, and customs delays. 

SHIPPING FEES:

Shipping is calculated based on the total weight of your order and your specific address. If your order qualifies for free shipping, this option will be presented in the checkout. All other delivery options will be shown during the checkout process. You will be able to review all of your selections before payment is required.
