The most ideal retrofitting waterproof solution for cellars and windows at the basement floor is the innovative acrylic bulkhead with tilt function.
In heavy downpours and floods, the shafts of basement windows may be completely covered in water in a matter of minutes. The ordinary rubber seals, used to insert the glazing into the window frames, may give into the pressure, and the water begins to flow into the basement. The higher the water levels collects, the it penetrates into the cellar rooms. The innovative acrylic bulkhead from AquaLOCK® is an easy to install system installed which effectively prevents water from penetrating through the window.
Flood protection
AquaLOCK® Windows Protector is a robust waterproof protective system made of solid acrylic glass with a thickness of 15 mm. It can withstand a water column of up to 2 meters for 24 hours.
Easy to install
The AquaLOCK® Windows Protector is quick and easy to install. The acrylic bulkhead is glued onto the window frame from the outside and sealed with special silicone. It is therefore possible to subsequently upgrade the system for improved flood protection at any time without any significant effort. The attached hatch remains in place and can be tilted or extended to ensure optimum ventilation. It can be mounted on the existing window frame or on the house wall.
Burglar-resistant and versatile
Besides flood protection, the AquaLOCK® acrylic bulkhead also acts as a burglar-resistant barrier, thus providing greater security. Furthermore, the acrylic bulkhead can be optionally equipped with an insect screen.
Due to the additional air layer, the AquaLOCK® Windows Protector also improves the insulation of the basement window.
