Walker’s Samples Policy

Samples Box

A great introduction to Walker’s products can be found in our standard samples box. It contains approximately 30 different samples in 4’’ x 4’’ and 4’’ x 8’’ formats of our etched glass, etched mirror, multiple patterns, anti-slip as well as some bird friendly designs. If you need specifications on our products, your local architectural representative will gladly send you all the required documentation.

12×12 Samples

Once you’ve made a design choice, you will likely want larger samples of your preferred Walker SKU to present to your team or to convey your choice to other project participants. In this case, Walker will provide you with a 12’’ x 12’’ sample format to further assist you in your selection process. Our extensive inventory of 12’’ x 12’’ samples representing our full product line is readily available.  These samples are free of charge.

Custom Samples

Walker custom samples generally fall into two different categories. The first one would be a different glass substrate that we do not carry in our standard offering. We understand that for some projects there is a need for a specific glass to either achieve the right look or to match the surroundings. We will do our best to accommodate your request. Please note that certain conditions apply in this case. The chosen substrate needs to be combined with our standard finishes or patterns. In addition, minimum product quantities need to be confirmed prior to sample production.

The second category relates to custom patterns. Should you need a specific design pattern or should you be specifying a unique bird friendly pattern, again, we can help you, but certain conditions may apply. This category of samples is available only in 12’’ x 12’’ format and at a cost of $300 for the production of a new pattern. This fee is refunded when the production order is received.

In both cases, custom samples also require a certain lead time of between 3 to 5 weeks, depending on the complexity of the request.
