In the South West we are surrounded by some of the country’s most beautiful and at times volatile coastline. The challenge is to be protected from the elements whilst retaining a stylish open feel.
Properties located within 3.2 miles (5km) of the coast, estuary or tidal river are defined as being located within a marine environment. The levels of natural chemicals such as salt and moisture in the air within marine environments can affect the aesthetics, performance and therefore the lifespan of your windows and doors.
For enhanced protection in aggressive or exposed environments (marine or industrial) Aspect Windows can offer additional enhancements. Meaning you can rest assured that our glazing solutions will hold up against the unpredictable weather in Devon and Cornwall.
These enhancements give Aspect Windows the ability to offer a guaranteed minimum 10 year guarantee*. Even in the most aggressive of marine environments – locations where others offer none.
An enhanced cleaning/maintenance scheduled is required for frames installed within marine environments, to help protect them from the elements. This will significantly increase the life of the frames and keep them looking newer for longer. Many manufacturers require a maintenance log to be kept as part of their marine warranty. Therefore we would recommend checking your warranty conditions. For help and advice on caring for your windows and doors in a coastal location, take a look at our Care and Maintenance Guide for Coastal Locations.
If you are looking for further advice about your coastal/marine project please book a showroom visit. Our knowledgeable team take an consultative approach, offering guidance on your glazing options, based on the style of your new build, renovation or extension project. The performance levels required and the demands of the location. Providing advise on the best products for you and your project. Our product range is extensive so we are confident we have something for you.
*The length of the guarantee can vary based on the system selected and the location of the property. A pre-anodised finish is required for a guaranteed 10 year guarantee within a marine environment.
