Burgon & Ball Estate Range – Secateurs: National Trust Collection Drop-Forged Stainless Steel

The Burgon & Ball Estate Range Secateurs are a masterclass in heritage-inspired cutting performance. Part of the prestigious National Trust collection, these bypass secateurs are drop-forged from stainless steel, a premium manufacturing process that ensures maximum metal density and a superior, long-lasting edge. Unlike standard pruners, these feature a full-tang, all-steel construction where the blades extend through the entire length of the handles for unmatched structural integrity. Finished with FSC-certified hardwood scales and solid brass rivets, they combine the rugged durability of a professional tool with the timeless elegance of a traditional estate garden.

Best For: Discriminating gardeners who require a high-strength, rust-resistant pruning tool for clean, precise cuts on live green wood and stems.

Key Features

• Drop-Forged Stainless Steel: The blades are drop-forged to remove metal voids, resulting in outstanding strength and a cutting edge that stays sharper for significantly longer than stamped blades.

• Bypass Cutting Action: Designed for precise, clean cuts, the bypass mechanism works like scissors to minimize bruising and promote faster healing of the plant.

• All-Steel Full-Tang Design: The single-piece steel construction provides maximum leverage and durability, ensuring the handles will never bend or snap under pressure.

Oversized Item Delivery Options

Since oversized items require special handling, we may need to provide a custom freight quote for your order and will contact you with an updated shipping rate.

Available options include:

✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup - default method
✔ Direct delivery - requires forklift on site
✔ Direct delivery with tailgate lift truck (extra fees apply)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)

Important Notes:

• Shipping costs vary by location and method
• Because of the forklift requirement, delivery to the nearest depot is the default option and will be the method used unless you contact us to request otherwise.

Business Delivery:

• Business delivery is available for commercial customers only
• If you select business delivery and your products are bulky, it is your responsibility to ensure you have appropriate equipment (including forklifts) to unload products from the delivery truck
• If you select business delivery and you are not a business, you risk your product not being delivered and may incur additional fees to retrieve your order
• Business delivery customers must provide a valid business address and contact information
• Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment

Let us know your preference, and we'll arrange the best solution for you!

Important Note on Availability & Shipping

Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.

Lead Times:

• In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
• Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.

While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.

Biosecurity & Interstate Shipping Restrictions

Due to strict state biosecurity regulations, we are unable to ship some products to certain states and territories:

• Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
• Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).

Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
