Terms of Service & Legal Notice

By visiting our site and/or purchasing products from Ridge Nest, you engage in our "Service" and agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions, including all additional policies referenced herein.

1. Governing Law

These Terms of Service and any separate agreements whereby we provide you Services shall be governed by, interpreted, and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Queensland (QLD), Australia, and the Commonwealth of Australia, without regard to conflict of law principles.

2. Technical Specifications & Brand Clarification

We endeavor to present accurate product descriptions, load ratings, dimensions, and pricing. Independent Overland Brand Notice: Ridge Nest is an independent designer and retailer of hard-shell rooftop tents and expedition accessories. Ridge Nest is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by iKamper, Darche, ARB, Kings, Bush Company, or James Baroud. Any comparative references are made strictly for technical specification, rack clearance matching, and consumer guidance. Ridge Nest reserves the right to correct any inadvertent inaccuracies at any time without prior notice.

3. Vehicle Roof Load Limits, Ladder Angle & Canvas Care Advisory

VEHICLE ROOF LOAD CAPACITY WARNING: Before installing a rooftop tent, you must verify your vehicle's manufacturer-rated dynamic roof load capacity (the load capacity while the vehicle is in motion) and the load capacity of your aftermarket roof crossbars. Dynamic capacity differs from static capacity (the weight the roof supports when parked). Do not exceed recommended vehicle roof load ratings. Ensure all crossbar mounting bolts are checked and torqued to specification after the first 50 km of driving and periodically thereafter. Ladder Safety: Always set the telescopic ladder at an approximate 70-degree angle; the ladder functions as an essential structural support for the cantilevered base. Canvas Packing: Never pack away wet canvas for extended periods; if forced to pack down in rain, open the tent fully within 24 hours to air dry completely and prevent mildew formation. Ridge Nest is not liable for vehicle structural damage, roof bar failures resulting from overloading, or canvas mildew damage caused by storage while wet.
