Over 100 Profile 22 windows and PatioMaster sliding doors were selected for Galwad Y Môr, a prestigious residential development in a prime north Wales coastal location.
Located in Penmaenmawr, Conwy, the development comprises nine three- and four-bedroom townhouses, two four- and five-bedroom semi-detached homes and three affordable two-bedroom apartments. Designed to maximise panoramic views across the Conwy Estuary to Anglesey, the project demanded glazing solutions capable of delivering both exceptional aesthetics and reliable performance in an exposed coastal environment.
To meet the project’s exacting specification requirements, main contractor Marshall CDP appointed Approved Commercial fabricator Heritage Trade Frames alongside specialist installer NR Windows. With more than 30 years’ industry expertise, Heritage Trade Frames manufactured the Profile 22 PVC-U windows and PatioMaster sliding doors used throughout the development.
The systems were chosen for their proven ability to deliver long-term reliability in challenging coastal conditions. Performance credentials included air permeability to BS 6375 Part 1 Table 1 (600Pa severe rating), water tightness to BS EN 1027 (600Pa severe rating) and wind resistance to BS EN 12211 / BS 6375 Part 1 (2400Pa severe rating), giving the developer confidence in both compliance and durability.
Highly corrosion-resistant austenitic stainless steel hinges were also specified to further enhance long-term performance and reduce maintenance requirements in the harsh marine setting.
From a design perspective, Profile 22’s sculptured casement windows provided clean contemporary sightlines, while PatioMaster sliding doors created expansive glazed areas that maximised natural light and strengthened the connection to the surrounding coastal views.
The anthracite on white finish added a modern aesthetic, complemented by an extended colour guarantee of up to 15 years to help maintain the appearance of the properties over time.
Close collaboration between Heritage Trade Frames and NR Windows is said to have ensured the products were manufactured and installed to exacting standards, supporting programme efficiency and consistent quality across the project.
The completed Galwad Y Môr development highlights how Profile 22 and PatioMaster systems combine contemporary design, proven performance and long-term durability, helping protect developer investment while enhancing the appeal and longevity of premium residential properties.
