Can Simon James furniture be customised?

Most of our furniture designs come in a variety of sizes and modular options, allowing for multiple configurations suitable for most spaces. If you find our options do not suit your space requirements, we may be able to make custom adjustments to suit your needs. Please see our custom page for further information.

What fabrics can Simon James products be upholstered in?

Aside from the selection of fabric recommendations online, we have an extensive range of quality fabric and leather swatches at our showroom for you to view. Our fabric recommendations are based on the form, construction and type of use. If there is a particular fabric type or colour you want, we can look at sourcing this through one of our fabric suppliers. Additionally, you can source and supply your own fabric, as long as it has been reviewed by our team.

Will the sun cause the fabric on my sofa to fade?

The likelihood of your fabric fading over time depends on the UV Blue Scale rating on the particular fabric you have chosen. Please note all fabrics will have some fading over time from sunlight, heat or harsh interior lighting. If your sofa is placed next to a window in full sun, we always recommend UV protection film on your windows. Our dedicated sales team will be able to advise on selecting fabrics that suit your requirements.

How long will it take for my furniture to be made?

Lead times are listed on the product pages and can vary during the year. We will be in touch if the lead time is different from what is indicated online at the time of placing the order. These lead times are subject to change through November/December; each year we have a pre-Christmas cut-off date to ensure delivery before the 24th of December. Please note our showroom and factory close for three weeks over the holiday period and lead times for February and March will reflect this.

Do your products require assembly?

The majority of our furniture pieces are delivered as whole and complete items with no assembly required. There are a few exceptions to this and the information is noted on the product pages, e.g. Halford Bed, Case Lap shelving and Cross Extending table. Assembly instructions will be supplied with the order upon delivery. We can offer assembly assistance for areas in Auckland, please get in touch with us if you require this.

Can you store my furniture order until I am ready for delivery?

Unfortunately, we have limited storage space and are not able to hold orders longer than 4 weeks from completion. If you have an estimated installation date that you are working towards, please touch base with us and we will work to shift our production timeframes in order to deliver your order when you are ready to accept it.
