Age verification popup

Torquex includes overlay sections that live in the Popups and drawers group rather than on a normal template. The Age verification popup appears above the storefront on every page.

To edit it, open Customize, then in the section list open the Popups and drawers group. The age gate ships disabled by default; enable it there when you need it.

A full-screen age gate that blocks the store behind a modal until the visitor confirms they meet your minimum age. The visitor’s choice is remembered in their browser, so it only appears once.

The Torquex age verification gate: a centered dark modal card on a blurred, dimmed page, showing the TORQUEX wordmark, an "Are you 18 or older?" heading, supporting text, and an orange "Yes, I am" confirm button beside an outlined "No, exit" button.
