The Self Closing Flood Barrier is a carefully designed self-rising floodgate that has been in use globally since 1998. Its design uses the approaching floodwaters to automatically raise the barrier. The automatic operation, along with its minimal footprint with no need for steps or ramps makes this type of defence ideal for unmanned sites, for where aesthetic considerations mean that a permanent barrier is not acceptable, or where there would be insufficient warning and manpower to use manually installed barriers.
Single barriers are available up to 10m in length and 2.5m in height. Multiple units can be linked together to create long runs where required, with permanent or removable intermediate posts.
