This would also depend on whether or not your safety edge was damaged by some other means like misuse or vandalism. These items do get damaged regularly during moves. However, if there is no evidence of this then they should replace it at no charge because your safety edge is still available. Even if it were not available, if your customer is that upset, a safety edge is relatively cheap and quick to install.

Obsolescence clauses aren't new but can be manipulated by companies. The simple rule of thumb should be if they are still available, then they should be replaced. I would also say if they have only 'just' finished their supply, then some consideration should be for that too.

$3750 is not to far out of line,now that most JHAs are requiring inspections when replacing entire detector systems. Unless it is the exact same unit. This requires more labor time to have the unit inspected.

Good point jj. Indeed locally here in California, the change out if not like for like- exactamundo, there is now (and maybe be has been, just never enforced) an inspection fee and related permits. More time...more labor...mo money mo money mo money.

Detector edges in Washington, even like for like, fall into safety devices. They require alteration permit, inspection before turn over, or written allowance for turnover pre inspection.

As a route mechanic, I do a lot for my costumers. Stuff that my company would prefer me to charge. Keys in the pit, smoke test, Change door times, Lockout floors etc. So for them to have to pay for a upgrade every 30+ years, dose not seem too big of a deal. Also that price here in Canada is pretty much bang on. I pay more for cable TV/month, then most of our costumer pay for full maint.
