The Seller represents that any automatic garage door opener included in this sale complies with UL 325 standards. The Buyer acknowledges that improper modification of the safety sensors or the reversing mechanism may lead to a violation of California safety regulations and poses a risk of serious injury or entrapment. Seller provides no warranty for equipment altered by the Buyer post-sale.
The Buyer acknowledges that the garage door system includes torsion or extension springs under extreme tension. Pursuant to industry safety standards and California hazard mitigation best practices, the Buyer agrees that any future adjustments to the spring system, bottom brackets, or cables must be performed by a qualified professional. Seller is not liable for injuries resulting from unauthorized maintenance of these high-tension components after title transfer.
In accordance with Cal. Civ. Code §§ 8000 et seq., the Seller (if acting as a licensed contractor) reserves the right to record a mechanics lien against the property where the goods are installed if the purchase price is not paid in full. This Bill of Sale serves as a record of the materials supplied for the purpose of securing payment rights under California law.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have executed this Bill of Sale as of the date first written above, each acknowledging receipt of a copy of this Agreement.
