Legal notice
Last Updated: August 25, 2026
Wind chimes are decorative products designed to move in response to air.
That movement is part of their purpose, but it also means that hanging location, wind conditions, mounting strength, surrounding objects, and routine maintenance matter.
Outdoor Wind Conditions
A wind chime that moves gently in a normal breeze may swing much more aggressively during:
- High winds;
- Thunderstorms;
- Severe weather;
- Sudden gusts;
- Seasonal storms.
When severe weather is expected, customers should consider removing or securing the product where appropriate.
Safe Hanging Location
A wind chime should not be installed where normal movement or an accidental fall could reasonably strike:
- People;
- Vehicles;
- Windows;
- Glass doors;
- Fragile furniture;
- Frequently used walkways.
Customers are responsible for selecting a suitable hanging location.
Mounting Point
A wind chime is only as secure as the structure holding it.
Hooks, branches, beams, ceilings, brackets, and other supports should be appropriate for:
- Product weight;
- Repeated movement;
- Wind exposure;
- Local conditions.
Do not attach a wind chime to a damaged, unstable, or unsuitable support.
Sound Variation
A wind chime does not produce exactly the same sound in every location.
Tone, volume, rhythm, and resonance may change depending on:
- Wind speed;
- Wind direction;
- Hanging height;
- Nearby walls;
- Roofs or overhangs;
- Trees;
- Open versus enclosed spaces;
- Temperature;
- Product materials.
Audio or video recordings are therefore references, not guarantees of identical sound in every environment.
Neighborhood and Building Rules
Wind chimes create audible sound by design.
Customers are responsible for checking any applicable:
- HOA rules;
- Lease restrictions;
- Apartment rules;
- Local noise ordinances;
- Building policies.
Style Shelter LLC does not control local rules concerning outdoor sound.
Weathering
Outdoor exposure may gradually change the appearance of materials.
Depending on the product and environment, this may include:
- Patina;
- Oxidation;
- Fading;
- Surface marks;
- Wood color changes;
- Cord wear.
A product described as weather-resistant should not automatically be interpreted as permanently unchanged under every outdoor condition.
Children and Pets
Wind chimes are decorative products and should not automatically be treated as children's toys.
Some designs may contain:
- Strings;
- Rings;
- Beads;
- Small decorative pieces;
- Clappers;
- Sails;
- Hanging cords.
Install products where children and pets cannot become entangled in or pull down hanging components.
Not a Safety Device
A wind chime is not intended to function as:
- A security alarm;
- Emergency signaling equipment;
- Storm-warning equipment;
- Wildlife-warning equipment;
- A lifesaving device.
Consumer Rights
Nothing in this notice removes legal rights that cannot lawfully be waived.
