Sandbox Warranty

About Our Policy

Sandbox Helmets warrants its products to be free of manufacturing defects for one (1) year from the date of purchase. Our commitment to you is that we want you to be riding as much as possible and you can't do that if you're not protected! If your gear has failed you then we will do our best to get you back out as quickly as possible. Check out our full guidelines below and make sure you have familiarized yourself with them before starting a warranty claim.

Step 1

Please read the following questions. If you answer yes to all of these then proceed to Step 2.

  • Was the product purchased within the last 12 months?
  • Was the product purchased from an authorized Sandbox dealer or direct from our online store?
  • Do you have a copy of your receipt, order confirmation, sales receipt or other proof of purchase?
  • Does the damage or fault appear to be the result of or attributable to defective materials or poor workmanship?

If you answered yes to all of the above questions proceed to Step 2. If you didn't then please Email Us and we will see what we can do to help.

Step 2

If your product was purchased from an authorized Sandbox dealer then please return your product to them to begin a warranty claim.

If your product was purchased directly from our online store then please Email Us with the following information.

  • Details of the product you are claiming (model, name, color etc.)
  • Original date of purchase (please attach a copy of the purchase receipt, invoice or sales receipt)
  • Description of the fault or damage (provide as much information as possible)
  • How did you first notice the fault or damage?
  • Images of the fault or damage. The better the images, the faster we can process your claim!
Step 3

Wait for a response from our customer service team.

We aim to respond to all warranty claims as quickly as possible but during busy periods response times may be slower. Our customer service advisors operate 9-5 PST Mon-Fri (excluding public holidays). Emails received outside of these hours will be responded to during the next available working hours.

If for any reason we require more information we will let you know.

Not all warranty claims can be approved by email. Sometimes we will require the product to be returned for an inspection. If this is the case we will provide full instructions by email.
