Union Key identification please


Recommended Posts

CopYcut, that's sort of normal, though. The makers, Union, merely confer the right onto the dealer to organise the key - and mark it up however heftily they want.

 

The dealer just has to do the paperwork: Pass on your order, collect your money. Union then send you the key, in a neutral cover, just like a top-shelf magazine..

Not sure how normal it is that the dealer doesn't get involved in supplying the key...for me the usual performance is that you ring the manufacturer, the manufacturer then points you in the direction of the dealer. The dealer than arses around for a few days (or weeks...) in trying to arrange a sales rep to visit you, set you up with a new account, passing you from pillar to post, but eventually there is someone buried deep in the company who knows what to do and sorts the keys out.

I don't think it's as easy as that

Ha ha, and the customer gets the key after few weeks, how good is that?

 

To me, this makes bad name for the manufacturer, my customer is a developer. I have 1000 new homes + amenities built every year, within 5 miles from me and this will go for next 10 years minimum.

See Wixhams, Great Denham etc

I'm just going to make sure they know which cylinders brand not to use, they will learn quickly.
