HOW THEY WORK
• Flood Gates quickly seal off doorways from ood water
• Minimize water intrusion, of depths up to 23 inches, through doors or other openings.
• Flood Gates are not designed to withstand impacts from debris and/or waves.
• Effectiveness of Flood Gates is dependent upon pressure between sides and bottom
of opening. The structure in which it is installed must be in good shape and able to withstand this
pressure. The structure surface must have a smooth surface capable of maintaining a seal.
