Pivot Flood Gates for Fast Reliable Flood and Spill Protection

Convenience and rapid operation make our pivot flood control gates the ideal flash flood defence or spill containment barrier.

The precision gas lift mechanism enables the gate to be effortlessly raised and lowered and the single point locking system clamps the pivot gate in place at the turn of a lever.

Patented seals are designed to resist clogging and to reform after prolonged periods of compression making the system ideal for long term and semi-permanent flood defence installation.

Automated or semi-automatic flood pivot gates can be triggered by fire alarm, smoke detectors, heat detectors or water detectors or push button controlled for daily use.

Specifically designed as flood protection for loading bays and wide openings, the pivot gate supports are custom manufactured to clear any existing obstacles, roller shutters, crash bars etc, and the raised flood gate is safely positioned to the side of the opening leaving the access totally free.

Pivot Flood Gates

The flood control gates are available for flood protection heights between 200mm and 600mm as standard and higher or custom systems are possible dependent on span requirements and location.

A single pivot flood gate can protect openings in flood defences up to 4.25m wide and dual flood gates can be linked with a removable central support for wider apertures. A manual slot-in version of the system is also available for use in locations with insufficient space at the side of the opening to install a pivot flood gate.

Flood Barriers

Flood Gates

Demountable Flood Barriers

Removable Stop Log flood barriers are engineered to provide similar levels of protection to permanent flood defenses, but with the advantage of being fully removable when not required

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

Designed and built to the same high standards as our lift-hinge flood gates, our swing-hinge flood gate products are ideal for opening where there is a step or ramp. The aluminum construction results in a light and easy to use door that provides full protection.

Sliding Flood Gates
