GoldenHome Cabinetry warrants that its Cabinets and Parts should be free of substantial defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 5 years following the acquisition date for Residential Customers and a period of 1 year following the acquisition date for Commercial Customers. The warranty period begins on the Purchase Date.
This Limited Warranty applies to Domestic use only and covers defects in materials and workmanship. Labor and shipping are not included. Indoor Use Only. All warranty actions are through the original Dealer where purchased. If that dealer is no longer in business with GoldenHome, another dealer will be assigned.
“The original Dealer where purchased” is us: Flip Cabinetry in Aurora, Ontario. Start every claim with us and we take it to GoldenHome.
In the event of an issue, GoldenHome will examine the product and at its sole discretion will determine if the warranty applies. If the product is no longer available, GoldenHome will substitute a similar product. Color match is not guaranteed as all cabinets will change over time.
Please follow all Assembly, Installation, and Care Instructions. This warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, water damage, outdoor use, or damage from misuse or abuse. The original Proof of Purchase receipt is required. Please contact original dealer or our Website, https://goldenhomecabinetry

The Assembly, Installation and Care Instructions for the cabinets we ship are published on this site. Following them is written into the warranty above, so it is worth reading before you build and keeping for later.
Assembly, installation & care instructions →Four clauses. GoldenHome numbers them 1 to 4; the 5.1–5.4 labels and the bold heading on each are this page’s own, added so we can point you at the right one. They carry no legal meaning. The text beneath every heading is the warranty, quoted in full.
Any modification to the hardware structure or finish of the original consumer purchaser's cabinetry by anyone not specifically authorized by GoldenHome Cabinetry will void this limited warranty. The product must be used exclusively for its intended purpose to be covered by this limited warranty. This limited warranty will be void if the cabinet or any of its components or parts are modified, improperly installed or damaged in any way prior to or during installation, or if installed or used for other than normal residential applications. The warranty does not cover damage caused by improper handling, storage, dirt, chemicals, abrasives or citrus cleaning products, installation, assembly or disassembly, transportation or other intentional or negligent damage, product modification, exposure to extreme humidity, moisture or excessive heat or cold (temperatures outside the range of 50-85°F range and humidity outside the range of 30-55% are considered extreme), nor does it cover damage caused by normal wear and tear, misuse, neglect, accident, alteration misuse, improper loading, or improper maintenance.
Buried in the middle of that clause are two numbers a homeowner can actually act on. Conditions outside these ranges are the ones the warranty calls extreme:
Worth a thought before a cottage is left unheated over a winter, before cabinets go into a house the heat is not on in yet, or in a basement that runs damp. Both figures are lifted straight out of the clause above, which is the text that governs.
Natural wood colors, grain patterns and characteristics may vary, based on naturally occurring wood characteristics, and are subject to subtle changes over time. GoldenHome Cabinetry will not be responsible for these changes in your cabinets, such as changes in color, grain, mineral streaks, and knots, painted doors, drawer fronts and face frames may eventually show visible cracks around the joint area and the cabinet color may darken or lighten over time, these conditions are considered normal and are not considered defects and are not covered by this limited warranty.
As time goes by, ultraviolet light, sunlight, fumes, household cleaners and other environmental conditions may also affect the color and integrity of the surface or appearance of the product. These variations are considered to be in the nature of the material in relation to its environmental exposure and are not considered defects in material or workmanship and are not covered by this limited warranty.
Door joints in particular may respond to their environmental conditions. Gaps that may form interior joints due to environmental conditions are not covered by this Limited Warranty. This Limited Warranty does not cover or apply to minor cracks in cabinets; given the nature of the material, minor cracks are inevitable in wood cabinets. Every species and grade of solid wood will behave in a manner that will eventually result in minor cracks.
Wood is wood, and expansion and contraction continue to occur year after year as it compensates and adapts to changing atmospheric humidity and temperature conditions. It is common to observe shrinkage and expansion in the center panel of a door. Once it has adapted to seasonal changes, it will return to its natural position within a few months.
In ordinary words: wood takes up moisture in a humid summer and gives it back in a dry, heated winter, so the centre panel of a door can sit a little differently from one season to the next — shrinking, then expanding again. The warranty above calls that common, and says that once the door has adapted to seasonal changes it will return to its natural position within a few months.
