FAQ

How do I place an order? 

Add all desired items to your shopping cart then select Checkout. Follow the user friendly prompt and provide the information requested. We will build your order and contact you with tracking upon shipment!

When should I expect my grill to arrive?  

Lead times vary by season and demand. We complete projects in the order they are received. With the exception of "Ready  to Ship" units, all grills are made to order. You can usually expect your grill delivery between 4-6 weeks of purchase. We update the current lead time under the LEAD TIME heading on the website. We will contact you with tracking information when the item ships. We do not offer rush orders because each of our customers expect their grill as soon as possible. We do our very best to stick to our estimated lead times.  

Can I see your grills in person?

To keep product costs as low as possible we primarily sell our products via our online store. Our website is our storefront! If you need assistance, we welcome phone calls and emails anytime, and we are very responsive. However, if you wish to place an order in person we can accommodate you BY APPOINTMENT. We do not staff a sales associate at our manufacturing facility full time, so an appointment is necessary if you would like to order in person. We manufacture grills to order so we do not have a showroom with all of our products. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Do you have grills available for immediate pickup? 

To keep our costs as low as possible we primarily build grills to order, but we occasionally stock select styles for immediate pickup. Look through our our "Ready to Ship" units tab, which is updated as they are available. These units can be purchased through our online store and arranged to pick up or have them shipped within 7 business days. 

How is shipping calculated? 

Shipping is calculated by the website. Grills ship 3rd party LTL common carrier freight, mostly assembled, strapped to a pallet. The website calculates shipping at checkout. Shipping is calculated to a residential address with lift gate service at delivery. If you would like your order delivered to a non-residential address or need a special service then you will need to contact us prior to ordering so that we can provide an accurate shipping quote. Please review in depth information about shipping, address types, and special services under the Warranty, Terms, Care & Use tab.

Accessories and smaller grates ship UPS Ground. All accessories and add ons ship free if ordered with a grill. 

Disclaimer: In some cases additional charges may apply due to an inaccessible delivery address, island/rural deliveries (where there is no road to the delivery address), rural, multi-level apartment/condo buildings, deliveries to the city of New York, and various other obstacles. The customer will be responsible for coordinating and paying for additional services required to deliver the order. 

Why should I choose a JD Fabrications Grill and what sets JD's Grills apart?   

JD Fabrications strives to offer the best quality, longest lasting product at competitive prices. JD Fabrications refuses to sacrifice quality for cost. All of our grills are built with your best interest in mind, with materials that will withstand their intended uses, and designs that will satisfy your greatest expectations. JD Fabrications is the direct manufacturer of all our grills so we know our products. We've tested hundreds of designs and are constantly striving to perfect them and only offer the best. We commonly get customer feedback that the quality of our grills far surpassed their expectations. Check out our customer reviews to see what people are saying!​

We are very aware of our competitors products and we do our best to offer better designs at competitive pricing. We commonly see competitors offering sub-par designs which can provide cost savings, but ultimately, much shorter product life expectancies. Many of these companies offer a seemingly comparable product and offer to beat competitor pricing. JD Fabrications refuses to sacrifice quality for cost. We are here to answer any questions you have regarding our designs and are happy to provide specific material sizes and thicknesses we will use in your build.

What if I want an option that is not available in the drop down menu options on a product page?  

While we have made many efforts to make the online ordering process as user-friendly as possible, we are still working on perfecting it. You may find that a desired combination is not available. Please contact us and we can help you! Email is the fastest way to receive a response.   

Do you offer designs not available on your website?/Obtaining a quote on a custom design

When you buy a JD Fabrications design you can rest assured that it has been tested for functionality and durability. We warranty our designs and we do so with utmost confidence in them! We occasionally take on custom work, however we cannot warranty custom designs.

A custom design is any design that alters the thickness, height, or shape of the grills available on our website. Changing the construction may seem very simple, but alterations such as deeper fireboxes, alternative materials, moved or removed support structures, or insulation can cause a design to react very differently under the high temperatures wood grills must endure. 

To obtain a quote on a custom design we require a sketch of your design including dimensions and material designations. To manage expectations of both parties, will always ask for your budget up front. Providing us with your acceptable price range is fine. Quoting custom projects can become very time consuming. If you do not wish to provide your design and budget up front then we do not wish to quote your custom project. In some more complicated cases we will ask for a non-refundable design fee that may be applied to your project. We do not share customer design or product information with other manufacturers in any situation other than if a part of the design needs to be outsourced.
