Water-Gate™ Self-inflating Barrier

The Water-Gate™ is a portable, self-inflating, reusable water barrier that can be used in place of traditional methods, such as sandbags, rock, or dirt dams. The Water-Gate™ can be installed or removed in minutes and easily packed and reused for a different application.

The portable barrier can be transported by vehicle to the required site or smaller barriers are light enough to be carried by a person. The Water-Gate™ can be installed by one person, with the barrier available in several lengths and heights and can be linked together to create longer sections.

The Water-Gate™ can be used in multiple situations like flood control, creating reservoirs and dams, waterway diversions and even chemical spill containment.


Flood Control	Creating Dams

Rapid Deployment

The barriers come in various lengths ranging from 9.1 m (30 ft) to 15.2m (50 ft) and heights from 0 .15m (½ ft) through to an impressive 2.0m (6 ½ ft)

¹ Effective Flood Protection Height is the height of water that the barrier will withstand. In the case of the Aqua-Barrier™ this height includes any wave action. ² Freeboard is the amount of flood barrier that needs to be above the water level. ³ Overtopping is the ability of the flood barrier to withstand water overflowing the barrier. ⁴ Base Width is the amount of flat or nearly flat ground needed to support the barrier. It is the flood barrier's effective "width" on the ground.
