The importance of education is well understood and protecting these critical facilities from closure due to flooding is a core application of FloodBreak’s passive automatic flood barriers. Our flood gates provide permanent 24/7 flood protection to K-12 schools and higher education facilities without the need for human intervention or power.

Protecting these important learning institutions without facility personnel worrying about deploying flood protection devices is a big relief.  Whether as a closure device at building entrances, loading docks, parking garages or perimeter floodwalls, FloodBreak protects 24/7 and allows for easy ingress & egress.

Architectural Integration

Building aesthetics are often important and project teams often select architectural treatments to integrate the flood barrier systems to the surrounding area. Building occupants and visitors will hardly notice the gates that are protecting the vulnerable openings.

As with all FloodBreak passive products, these automatic flood barriers do not impede access until an actual flood event.
