FAQs about Placing, Changing or Cancelling an Order

Here you can find some of the common questions and answers related to placing, changing or cancelling an order. If you cannot find the answer to your question here, please get in touch.

How do I place an order?

To place an order, you can follow a straightforward process.

  1. When selecting standard sized doormats, simply add the desired product(s) to your basket. 
  2. For engraved mats, additional steps are involved. Select the preferred size, colour, or type of mat, and provide the specific text you wish to have engraved.
  3. For those interested in custom size mats, choose a matting thickness if necessary, and input the two largest measurements in the designated boxes. A crucial aspect to remember is that these measurements should be in millimetres.

Can I make changes to an order I have already placed?

If you have recently placed an order and find that you need to make changes to it, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us as soon as possible. Our team will do their best to assist you, but we cannot always guarantee that changes will be possible, especially if the order has already entered the production phase. Specifically, for made-to-measure, engraved or cut-to-size matting, it’s important to note that once these items are in production, alterations might not be possible. Nonetheless, we understand that situations arise unexpectedly, and we are committed to exploring any potential options to accommodate your request.

Can I cancel my order?

The ability for us to cancel an order is dependent upon how far the doormat is in the production process. Once a doormat has entered the production phase, including cutting, engraving, or stitching, cancellation will not be possible. However, for standard mats or those that have not yet commenced production, we can proceed with canceling your order. Please get in touch with us as soon as possible if you would like to cancel your order, this way there is more chance it will be possible to proceed with your request.

Can I place an order over the phone?

Yes, we can accept orders and process payments via credit or debit card (excluding American Express) for orders placed over the phone. While this option is available, we highly recommend considering online ordering to ensure a seamless and secure transaction. By placing your order online, you have the ability to verify and confirm the delivery and billing addresses, and have complete peace of mind regarding the security of the transaction.

If, however, you still prefer to place your order over the phone, our team is available to assist you. You can simply reach out to us by calling us at CGS (Haverhill) Ltd on 01440 709328 during our operating hours.

Do you supply samples?

If you are considering placing a large order and find it necessary to assess the quality and suitability of the matting prior to making your purchase, you have the option to request a sample. You can order these online by clicking here.

Alternatively, you can contact us to order your sample(s). To proceed with this, we kindly ask you to provide details about the specific type of matting you are interested in, such as the colours, thicknesses, or any other specifications and a delivery address. Upon receiving your request, we will be happy to arrange for the delivery of the requested sample. It’s important to note that a fee of £1.99 – £3.99 is applicable for each sample, predominantly to cover the cost of postage and associated handling expenses. The fees for each sample can be viewed online in our matting samples page. To allow for the payment of the requested samples, we will provide you with a secure link to our website, where you can proceed with the payment for the samples you require. 

Can I get a discount?
