Heavy Duty Sliding Flood Gates with Full Design and Installation Service

Flood Control International provides a complete design, manufacture and installation service for heavy duty sliding flood gates that are built to perform in the most demanding conditions. Every sliding flood gate is individually engineered to meet the precise requirements of the site, whether protecting a single aperture, a wide industrial opening or integrated into an existing flood wall. Tested by FM Approvals to withstand flood levels of up to 2.1 metres, these gates offer proven resilience against rising waters and storm surges. With the option to incorporate automation for closure, locking and monitoring, they provide both convenience and confidence in critical situations.

Constructed from high strength materials including stainless steel and aluminium, our sliding flood gates deliver durability in marine and industrial environments where long service life is essential. Each beam is designed to span openings of up to three metres, with broad seals that ensure a secure fit on most hard surfaces. Despite their strength, the lightweight sections allow for rapid deployment and safe operation by a single person when manual use is required. When not needed, the gates are fully removable, leaving the ground surface flat and unobstructed.

To enhance security, our systems include vandal resistant covers and lockable clamps, and all components can be powder coated in any standard RAL colour to complement the surrounding architecture. Whether used as part of a permanent flood defence scheme or kept stored and deployed in response to flood warnings, these sliding gates combine flexibility, ease of use and robust performance. Designed for long term reliability, with hot dip galvanised and aluminium components, they represent a cost effective and dependable flood protection solution for sites across Australia.

Sliding Flood Gates

Sliding flood gates are designed with integrated spring wheels that make them easy to move into position while also providing the force needed to compress the seals for a secure and watertight fit.

For projects that demand an alternative sealing method, inflatable seals can be specified. These inflate once the gate is in place to create a tight and dependable barrier against water ingress. Both options give site owners the flexibility to choose the most suitable system for their location and level of protection required.

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.
