Residence 7 Windows | Noir

Located in the luxury estate of Claybanks, Heswall, this four-bedroom home has
been enhanced by a stunning collection of 56 x R7 windows including16 gable frames, in the
bold and elegant finish of Noir. Delivering a clean, contemporary look achieved without
compromising on durability or energy efficiency. The Timberweld® jointing technology
proved ideal for the 90-degree joining on the shaped frames. This ensures that even the
most intricate Residence 7 gable windows maintained the authentic, flush timber-look
aesthetics, while benefiting from modern uPVC performance.

Noir
Noir is as pure black as you can get. With an unsurpassable depth and

expressive accent. It will add structure and personality to any home.

This project really does highlight the benefits of modern, high-performance
systems when paired with contemporary design. At HWL, we pride ourselves on
delivering situations that don't force a compromise between aesthetics and
technical excellence.

By utilising Timberweld® technology on the complex shaped
frames and R7 gables, we've been able to provide Claybanks Estates with the
seamless, authentic look of timber, but with the superior durability and thermal
performance today's luxury homeowners expect. It's a testiment to what can be
achieved through precise fabrication and high-quality partnerships.
