Lift-Hinged Flood Gates

Flood Control International AUSTRALIA

Lift Hinge Flood Gates for Wide Openings and Accessible Entrances

These floodgates are available as single or double leaf, or integrated with a stop-log system for wide openings in flood defences. Our lift-hinge flood gate products are suitable for use in unmanned locations, are fully lockable and come complete with anti-theft and vandal resistant features.

Our design for a lift-hinged flood gate utilises a unique ‘raise-swing-lower’ mechanism and does not require recessed ground channels, raised ground beams or ramps, making the gates ideal for vehicle entrances and especially suitable for forklift or wheelchair access.

Even the widest flood gate designs can be operated by one person using the smooth winding lift action and the single point locking mechanism. The aluminium construction also provides a far higher level of operator safety than heavy steel flood gate products.

Lift-Hinged Flood Gates

The components are manufactured from construction grade steel and aluminium with stainless steel and are virtually maintenance free.

Our flood gate range is designed for extreme weather durability to give a lifetime of service and with EPDM seals that reform even after prolonged periods of compression, the gates can, if required, be left closed indefinitely. For locations where leafs greater than 4.5m wide are required, we can also manufacture from steel to any size.

Flood Gates

Demountable Flood Barriers

Glass Flood Walls

Our glass flood wall barriers are made from high strength structural glass and engineered frames that withstand static and impact loads.

Flip Up Barriers

In order to provide unrestricted access to pedestrian and vehicle entrances, the flip-up flood barrier is fully recessed in to the ground when not in use.

Drop Down Barriers

When not in use the drop-down flood barrier is unobtrusively located above the top of the opening, ready to be lowered at a moment’s notice.

Lift Hinge Flood Gates

Our Lift-Hinge flood gates utilize a unique ‘raise-swing-lower’ mechanism and do not require recessed ground channels, raised ground beams or ramps, making them ideal for vehicle entrances and especially suitable for forklift or wheelchair access.

Swing Hinge Flood Gates
