Policy updates effective immediately.
Rush Fees
Rush accommodations have become the norm rather than the exception so moving forward:
- 50% upcharge on any order requiring a two-week turnaround.
- Limited to five (5) SKUs per rush order.
- Shipping costs vary based on requested urgency.
- Production approval required before any rush commitment.
- Approved warranty items are exempt.
Custom Fabrication
For modifications to stock SKUs that require design and engineering:
- Simple changes (custom height, depth): start at $250 per change.
- Custom hood designs: start at $1,500 per design.
- All other custom elements: quoted individually.
- Engineering fee applies only to the first prototype – reorders are not charged again.
- Turnaround: 2 business days for a quote, 3 additional days for a drawing.
- Every custom part requires an approved drawing and a unique SKU before production.
- May extend lead time.
ZBQ Quick Ship Standards
- ZBQ’s are Sonoma as standard.
- Windswept: additional cost, +2 weeks lead time, limited to Virga (shaker) and Anvil (slab).
- Other door styles are still available, but the order will be processed as a standard order, not a ZBQ.
- Countertops and appliances remain available within the ZBQ footprint.
- If ZB is not supplying the countertop, the grill front cannot be pre-cut — the installer handles it in the field.
CDS (Cabinet Design Service)
- A completed form with accurate dimensions, appliance specs, and collection is required before we begin.
- Appliance specs and field dimensions are mandatory before any production order.
- Allow 3 business days for initial design, 2 business days for simple revisions.
Grill Base Cabinets
- The designer is responsible for verifying the grill and liner will fit within the cabinet ordered.
- The liner is the controlling specification; it contains the grill.
- The grill is not relevant to fit if the liner contain the grill.
- Typical requirements are 3” larger than the grill for the liner as a minimum.
Material Costs & Pricing
The good news is we have pre-purchased enough inventory to hold current pricing through August 1. If material costs return to pre-conflict levels by then, there will be no price increase.
Deliveries
LTL costs remain outside our control. Local Zah Truck delivery will increase from 5% to 6%. We will revisit this as conditions improve.
Bespoke Charges
For customization beyond basic height, width, or depth changes:
- Non-standard door styles or cabinet configurations: minimum 25%–50% of project total, depending on complexity.
- Radius work and highly complex designs: available by quote only; may incur a set up/fixturing fee.
Please feel free to reach out anytime with additional questions. We would rather walk through this with you directly than have anything be unclear.
