Agree who is receiving the materials
Ask whether the installer will bring the equipment or whether a separate delivery is planned. If materials will arrive first, identify who is authorized to receive them and how the supplier will contact that person. Confirm access and unloading arrangements with the delivery team. Do not assume the homeowner must move large door sections or supply unloading equipment.
Record the delivery without unsafe handling
Compare accessible package labels and the delivery reference with the order, following the supplier’s receiving process. Note visible packaging damage or an apparent quantity discrepancy with photographs when safe. Do not open, lift, or rearrange heavy components just to complete a checklist. Ask the delivery contact how concerns should be recorded before the receiving step is completed.
Keep storage and acceptance questions explicit
Obtain the supplier’s instructions for where and how materials should be kept until installation. Tell the installer about any discrepancy promptly, with the order reference and photographs. Receiving packaged materials is not the same as confirming installation quality or checking hidden contents. Follow the applicable purchase terms for reporting concerns rather than assuming a universal deadline or remedy.

Before you proceed
Does accepting delivery confirm the installation is complete?
Delivery and installation are different stages. Follow the supplier’s receiving process and record visible concerns without handling heavy components unnecessarily. Keep hidden-content questions, installation checks, and the final operating demonstration separate from the materials receipt.
