PROJECT PROFILE
DUNLUCE LODGE, PORTRUSH
HANNA MECHANICAL RISES TO THE CHALLENGE OF CO-ORDINATING PLUMBING, HEATING, DRAINAGE, AC AND VENTILATION SERVICES WITH THE BESPOKE FINISHES OF A LUXURY PROPERTY… DELIVERING A FIVE-STAR MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
A full mechanical installation in the North Coast’s first five-star hotel is among the latest projects successfully delivered by Hanna Mechanical. Recently opening its doors to the public ahead of The 153rd Open returning to Royal Portrush this July, Dunluce Lodge is situated alongside the fourth fairway of the world-famous Co Antrim golf club. Martin & Hamilton Construction served as main contractor for the £16.5m project, which comprises 35 luxury suites, a small spa, private lodge with eight suites, private dining, a fireside lounge space, and a restaurant and bar overlooking Royal Portrush and the Irish Sea. It also features a wine vault, private helipad and nine-hole putting green. Hanna Mechanical has completed many projects in the hospitality sector, including full mechanical installations at the Haslem Hotel in Lisburn and the Kingfisher Country Estate in Templepatrick. Commissioned as mechanical contractor for Dunluce Lodge, Hanna Mechanical
procured and installed all plumbing, heating and drainage elements of the project, sub-contracting the installation of AC to Aircon and ventilation to Principal HVAC. Seamlessly integrating the mechanical installation with the bespoke finishes of a five-star property was among the biggest challenges for the Carryduff firm. Damian Murray, Contracts Manager, said, “Ensuring our installation worked alongside all the specialist joinery and finishes used in this project required a lot of attention to detail. “Close consultation with the main contractor Martin & Hamilton and Ashgrove Joinery was essential to coordinate the services we were installing with the property’s high-end look incorporating very specific radiators and grills contained within panelling and designed around bookcases, drop ceilings and herringbone floors.” Having previously collaborated with Martin & Hamilton on a school project,
Hanna Mechanical enjoyed its latest partnership with the main contractor. The Dunluce Lodge build spanned November 2022 to January 2025, with the luxury hotel opening to the public the following month. Supporting the local economy by employing a team of over 60 staff, Dunluce Lodge is operated by Valor Hospitality Partners, a global, full- service hotel management company in partnership with its US owners, the Links Collection.
