AquaLOCK® Gate – Effective Flood Protection for Entrances Up to 5 Meters Wide

Reliable Protection for Your Property Entrance

Effective flood protection begins at the property boundary. The AquaLOCK® Gate safeguards entrances with a maximum width of 5 meters and a height of up to 1.2 meters, keeping 99.9% of floodwater at bay.

Securing Underground Garage Entrances

Underground garages are highly susceptible to devastating flooding, often resulting in costly repairs to vehicles, inventory, and building infrastructure. Based on decades of experience by Torbau Schwaben, the AquaLOCK® Gate offers comprehensive flood protection. It is versatile, user-friendly, and effectively shields underground garages from water ingress.

Inward-Opening Portal with 95° Range: Ideal for securing underground parking areas.

Flexible Flood Protection with Inward or Outward Opening

Depending on the layout of your property, you can choose an AquaLOCK® Gate that opens inward or outward. Both options feature a robust design that also provides above-average protection against vandalism. The optional locking system can be easily operated with a standard door handle, and both configurations can open up to 95° or 180°.

Inward Opening: Maximum Security

The inward-opening AquaLOCK® Gate features a specialized, heavy-duty locking system that absorbs the immense forces generated by water pressure, ensuring maximum security. Each locking bolt is manually operated, with an optional central locking mechanism available to activate all bolts simultaneously via a single lever.

Inward-Opening Gate with Central Locking System: Simplifies secure locking of multiple bolts.

Outward Opening: Maximum Flexibility

The outward-opening version provides maximum flexibility, with the opened gate positioned along the wall to minimize space usage. Painted to match the wall color, the gate blends seamlessly into its surroundings and can be quickly and securely closed in an emergency.

Outward-Opening Gate with 180° Range: Provides flexible space-saving solutions.

Certified and Tested for Maximum Safety

AquaLOCK® Gates undergo rigorous testing by leading institutions, including ift Rosenheim, the University of Biberach, and the European Association for Flood Protection (EVH). Leakage Performance: A Gate measuring 4,000 mm in width and 1,800 mm in height demonstrated a leakage rate of only 0.95 liters in 24 hours, exceeding flood resistance standards defined in ift Directive FE 07/1-2005. Enhanced Real-World Results: In practical conditions, sediment in floodwater often further seals any micro-gaps, resulting in reduced leakage. Technical Specifications Maximum Width: Up to 5 meters.
