How to Review Warranty Pass-Through to End Users

Mark the clause as assignment, back-to-back, or a bare pass-through, then test scope, duration, contact, and any wider promise.

Bethan's Friday job is how to review warranty pass-through to end users on a Presteigne file with Lugg Trade. Clause 11.1 only says the supplier shall pass through the manufacturer's warranty. Clause 11.2 promises thirty-six months, while Clun Weave's schedule is twelve months and not assignable. Name the seat, then align the term, add an assignment, or walk.

Friday 16 October 2026 is the signature date under English law, in the courts of England and Wales. Mark the clause as assignment, back-to-back, or a bare pass-through, then check whether scope, duration, and the claim path exceed the manufacturer warranty, who the end user may contact, whether the limited warranty is attached, and whether an over-promise sits inside an indemnity.

In October 2026 Bethan runs a twelve-person runner brand in Presteigne and reads Lugg Trade Ltd in Leominster before Friday. Kington Home wants a thirty-six month replacement. Clun Weave is twelve months and not assignable. The packet — the reseller agreement, Schedule 6, and the shop acknowledgement — sits on the desk.

The reseller agreement says pass-through, while the order acknowledgement promises a longer warranty than the manufacturer schedule, and the claim path never names who the end user may contact. Slack on 7 October 2026 is the pressure. The typical mistake is skipping Schedule 6 as software-only. In practice that schedule still has to travel with the sale.

For example, one label covers four structures. Squire Patton Boggs, 25 July 2017, read on 9 October 2026, lists them. Law Insider, 9 October 2026 assigns only to the extent transferable, or leaves the seller's warranty in place. Aaron Hall, 18 October 2025, flattens this into one unchanged transfer. Not this file, and not the law of England and Wales.

How to tell assignment from a back-to-back warranty

Clause 11.1 says the supplier shall pass through to end users the manufacturer's warranty. Write this: 11.1 is a bare pass-through. It is not an assignment and not a back-to-back warranty until the text chooses a seat. Do not treat the label as the transfer. The risk is assuming Clun Weave now owes Kington Home.

Back-to-back starts with the reseller. Equivalent relief caps the customer upstream. Assignment sends the claim to the supplier. Indemnity-backed leaves the reseller promising. Guangzhou against New York is not England and Wales. One sample assigns only to the extent transferable, with out-of-pocket help billed to the buyer. This file does not. Law Insider, 9 October 2026 keeps service with the supplier, or calls the pass-through supplemental. Practical Law, 9 October 2026 is an unread letter for a user, not a reseller. Do write the seat. Don't treat a company-sale mirror as clause 11.1.

Clause 11.1 beside four warranty seats, no face

What to check before the promise exceeds the manufacturer warranty

Schedule 6, dated 4 March 2026, is twelve months from shipment to the reseller, repair or replacement only, claims only by the reseller, and not assignable without prior written consent. Clause 11.2 is thirty-six months from the end user's purchase, including shrinkage and colour fade. The 2 June 2026 acknowledgement says three-year. Twelve and thirty-six are this packet.

Kington Home, 28 September 2026: fade after fourteen months of home washing, under the three-year line. Past twelve, inside thirty-six. Wash above 40°C and commercial laundry are excluded.

Apogee, 7 May 2026, clause 15, is Integrators under Utah law only. No representation beyond scope, duration, or coverage without written consent. Contract Codex makes the reseller liable for a wider warranty, on purpose or by slip. A second sample adds third-party warranties to the seller's own. Don't glue them. Law Insider, 9 October 2026 says coverage is never wider than the manufacturer's. Do write: reseller warranty exceeding manufacturer scope. Don't tell Slack the factory covers the shop note.

This packet, line by line

Place	What the page says	What you write
11.1	Pass through the manufacturer warranty	Seat not chosen
Schedule 6	Twelve months, not assignable	Ceiling on this file
11.2	Thirty-six months, plus fade	Wider than 12
2 June 2026	Three-year acknowledgement	Wider than 12
11.3	Claims only to the reseller	Direct path closed
Indemnity	No clause on the wider promise	Not inside one

Which contact path may the end user use?

Clause 11.3 sends every claim to the reseller and bars a pointer to the supplier or the manufacturer. That closes a direct path. It does not assign the warranty. Write who Kington Home may contact. The text never names a direct route.

Apogee names a sole point of contact and bars sending the end customer upstream without written permission. Integrators and Utah only. An assignment would send the claim to the supplier. Clause 11.3 does not.

HFW, 23 September 2026, uses back-to-back when purchase terms are substantially repeated on the resale. Each contract is its own pair of duties. A failure upstream is not a defence below. String trades, not a runner warranty. A factory refusal does not cancel clause 11.2. Don't treat two contracts as one.

End-user claims stopped at the reseller, no face

How to review flow-down of the limited warranty

Attach Schedule 6 even though this file never says end-user licence. Slack called that paper software-only. That skip is wrong. Bind the shop to the warranty you hold. Do not import a click-through indemnity. Schedule 6 is not on the 2 June acknowledgement.

Malwarebytes v3.0, sections 5.6.1 and 5.7, re-read on 9 October 2026: record the first shipment date, bind the end user, and indemnify a miss. Wider promises stay on the reseller. Do not copy the extension cost in section 5.6.2 into clause 11.

If the buyer were a consumer, Consumer Rights Act 2015 section 30, read on 9 October 2026, is a guarantee from delivery. Statutory rights are not affected. Kington Home is a trade buyer, so do not use section 30 on that letter. Section 31 does not void clause 11.2 here. A pass-through does not cancel a consumer claim against the selling trader.

When to escalate an indemnity for an over-promise

Clauses 11.1 to 11.3 have no indemnity for a promise wider than Schedule 6. Escalate that gap before Friday. A thirty-six month claim, or the three-year line, is not Clun Weave's bill. Check that heading before you align the term.

If that indemnity fails, the reseller stays exposed, and clauses 11.1 to 11.3 do not write one. Do write that there is no indemnity on 36 months or the three-year line. Don't insert an extension cost. Pause if the wider promise is still uncovered.

Bare verb

This file never wrote an indemnity for the wider promise. Escalate that gap.

Checklist before you align, add an assignment, or walk

Before you sign, point to one sentence that stops Friday 16 October 2026. It is not the line that pass-through already moved the warranty. The thirty-six month warranty exceeds the twelve month manufacturer schedule, the warranty is not assignable, or the claim path blocks the end user. The page then names assignment, back-to-back, or walk. Verify that sentence on the PDF.

A sublicence for affiliates and end users is a different review: sublicence. Sold as is with a sole remedy is a different review: conformity. A 1999 Act carve-out is a different review: third-party rights. A bare pass-through is not, by itself, a shop claim against the factory.

Workflow: 11.1 → Schedule 6 → 11.2 → 11.3 → align, add an assignment, or walk. Upload the same PDF or DOCX. Reseller-agreement review marks pass through, thirty-six, not assignable, and shall not direct on that file. Document analysis is that upload. A person still fills the page.
