FITTING
Step 1: Ensure vertical
and base surfaces are free of dust and dirtStep 2: Place barrier with neoprene cover facing flood (Diagram B above) and as close as possible to your entrance
Step 3: Keeping unit upright, apply downward pressure whilst adjusting horizontal expander - see A1
Step 4: Tighten 4 downward pressure bolts ( A2 above) to maximise pressure therefore completing water seal
Floodgate comprises of a mild steel boxed frame which expands telescopically on the horizontal and vertical plane (see diagrams at right). The frame is enveloped by a 7mm thick neoprene jacket which when expanded forms a waterproof seal between the gate and the aperture it is expanded into.
Due to its unique design, Floodgate does not require any permanent fittings to the property it is protecting. Each Floodgate takes approximately 2 minutes to install and can be deployed during flooding, meaning that little warning is required.
Other benefits include:
- Provides greater flood protection than 50+ traditional sandbags without the associated costs
- Minimal space needed for assembly as the barrier is only 25mm thick
- Existing doors can be opened to allow access when installed
- Easy to install, maintain, transport and store
- Suitable for rough and smooth surfaces
- Equally effective in fresh or salt water conditions
- Products can be expanded by the addition of extra units to help protect larger entrances such as factory doors, driveways, garages or walkways.
