Self-Activated Flood Barriers

Automatic Flood Gates

Automatic, self-closing flood gates protect personnel, properties, and irreplaceable assets 24/7/365 - with no reliance on electrical power, physical manpower, or mechanical springs for deployment.

GATES

Passive Flood Control For Critical Infrastructure

Automatic Flood Protection In Action

Automatic flood protection gates use the power of hydrostatic pressure & rising floodwaters against itself. These devices automatically protect critical infrastructure assets, commercial buildings, life-saving hospitals, and multi-family devleopments from damage around-the-clock. Orange Flood Control, LLC has installed resilient, low-maintenance automatic gates at facilities across the United States. These self-rising barriers are stored underground – typically within a concrete, steel, or stainless-steel trough. When a storm strikes, the rising flood waters force the gate to float – raising the barrier into the deployed position. When stormwater recedes, passive barriers automatically lower for no-manpower retraction.

Automated Response For Unmanned Sites

Automatic Flood Barriers

Promote uninterrupted operations, uptime, and continuity with automatic flood barriers. These products stand out for fully-autonomous operation with a minimal footprint. Devices protect people and property 24/7/365 – integrating with existing architecture and building aesthetics. When not in-use, systems remain concealed in the resting position – offering resiliency opportunites where traditional permanent flood barriers are not an option.

No Manual Intervention Or Power Required

No Offsite Storage – Systems Self-Store

Minimal Annual Testing & Maintenance

Simple Testing & Maintenance

Customizable To Extended Lengths & Heights

Streamlined Emergency Response & Planning

Automatic AquaTrigger© Barriers

Flip-Up Flood Gates

Secure your property with resilient flip-up flood barriers. When not in-use, this resilient flood device self-stores flush at the sidewalk, driveway, or pathway surface – eliminating slip & fall risks while preserving building aesthetics. When flooding occurs, hydrostatic pressure causes the passive gate to automatically self-pivot – delivering up to 8′ of water protection heights. With its versatile design and engineering configuration, the AquaTrigger flip-up gate is ideal for retail storefronts, exterior building openings, pedestrian doors, and loading docks.

Engineered For H-20/HS-20 Load Rating

Flush Self-Storage – No Tripping Hazards

Corrosion-Resistant Construction Materials

Minimal Below Grade Depth Clearance

Custom-Engineered For Every Application

Manual, Passive, Electronic Deployment

Always-In-Place, Passive Flood Gates Solutions

Self-Activating Flood Barriers

Passive flood gate barriers eliminate manual deployment steps and processes before a severe flooding event. Self-activating flood barriers provide automatic flood protection – regardless of personnel’s availability and location in the facility. These revolutionary flood control devices are expert-engineered for a long protection life-span with minimal maintenance requirements – providing resilient protection for decades.

Permanent 24/7/365 Flood Protection

Minimal Annual Maintenance Requirements

Maintains Building Aesthetics & Access

Proven Performance & Long-Service Life

Hidden Below Building’s Grade

Rated For HS-20 Loading

Self-Rising, Storing, & Activated Protection

Self-Closing Flood Gate

Protect your facility with a passive, automatic response to flooding risks. Self-closing flood barriers (SCFB) store recessed in the ground until deployment is required. During flash flooding conditions, the barrier is self-activated by rising waters – with no reliance on human intervention, manual assistance, or electricity. This device’s unique engineering design is well-suited for protecting retaining walls, pedestrian walk doors, driveways, loading ramps, and retail storefronts.

Engineered For H-20-44 Loading Standards

Steel, Aluminum, Stainless Steel Design

Minimal Installation Footprint

Simple Testing & Maintenance

Fast Deployment In Minutes

Ideal For Unmanned Locations

Contain Chemical, Doorway, & Industrial Spills

Automatic Spill Containment Gates

Automatic spill containment barriers deliver 24/7/365, always-ready defense that protects confidence, peace of mind, and reliability. Systems are designeed & engineered to autonomously deploy upon contact with liquids or contaminants – blocking floodwaters, chemical skills, firefighting/sprinkler water, and runoff before damage occurs. Products are manufactured with corrosion & chemical resistant materials to support repeat use & longevity.

Support Unobstructed Access When Not In-Use

Aligned With EPA, OSHA, & Regulatory Compliance Standards

Reduce Damage Costs & Cleanup Expenses

Increase Personnel & Worker Safety

Reduce Hazardous Liquid & Chemical Exposure

Engineered For Versatile Building Applications

Protect Your Personnel, Property, Equipment, And Assets

The Impact Of Automatic Flood Gate Barriers

Passive response, automatic flood gate barriers protect irreplaceable infrastructure from costly, time-consuming damage – without human intervention or electricity. These devices allow facilities to remain operational during severe flash/coastal flooding, natural disasters, heavy rainfall, or unpredictable storms – without evacuation, closure, or downtime. Install flood solutions that lower damage risk – without disrupting day-to-day operations or personnel.
