Flood Barrier Shield is custom specialty fabricated item and is available in sizes not listed on our site. For greater heights or width please contact us for a quote.
This high quality, removable barrier, specifically designed for windows, answers pleas from builders and homeowners for help in protecting doors, windows and building contents from water ingress in flood-prone areas. When water from heavy rains accumulates, the Flood Barrier Shield effectively blocks up to three feet or more of flood waters from permeating openings. The solid rubber extrusion (SRE) has been engineered to be specific for this type of application. The rubber compensates for any gaps around the door or window. As water hits the guard, the horizontal hydrostatic pressure is converted to downward pressure on the SRE causing a secure, tight seal around the perimeter of the frame.
Panel Material:Â The aluminum channels used in the Flood Barrier are extruded aluminum, while the panel is made of 5052 type marine grade aluminum.
Panel Weight: Approximately 3.2 Lb / square foot
Available Sizes: Heights from 10" - 48" and Widths from 12" - 71" can be purchased through our site. Larger dimensions will need additional supports and can be quoted by contacting us or giving us a call at 845-388-1300.
Seal:Â The key to the shield's impermeability is the use of a high quality closed cell sponge (CCS) neoprene rubber, which ensures a water-tight seal. The rubber lines the aluminum channel brackets and the bottom of the shield. The neoprene also compensates for gaps at the threshold.
Grip Handles: Grip handles are applied to allow for easy installation. Note, the grip handles are positioned within 1" above the ordered height.
Installation: Once channels are applied, panels are quick and easy to apply with no tools required. Note, When installing, push down on top of plate to ensure compression of rubber strip at the bottom of the plate and tighten screws. Due to the weight of the plates, taller plates may require more than one person to install properly. Barrier has a convenient cut-out grip handle for simple maneuvering and installation.
Mount Type: Can be applied in an Inside Mount or Outside Mount, Select link to view specifications. Select the mounting option required above.Â
Bottom Mounting Channel: This model is designed with an extra mounting channel on the bottom to be compatible with window installation. When a window does not have a protruding sill the bottom mounting channel is required. Even with a protruding sill, we highly recommend installing the flood barrier with the bottom channel, as this prevents infiltration of water.
If a bottom mounting channel is not required you can purchase our standard Flood Barrier for Doors and apply it to your window application.
Channel Installation: We recommend using a waterproof silicone sealent like the TruSil 100 to seal the edges of the channels and bottom of threshold when installing.
Compliance Details: This flood barrier complies with FEMA and FIA Guidelines
