Smart and resilient
The majority of flood defence failures are the result of an error during deployment. Flood doors design out this risk. If the user is capable of opening and closing a door then they are capable of deploying a flood door.Our flood glazing system is a sealed glass panel fixed inside a unique aluminium frame, built to withstand the forces of nature. Laminated glass made to withstand impact combined with highly corrosion resistant framing, our glazing systems will hold the force of water at bay, without a drop getting through.
Designed to your needs
Each flood glazing barrier we build is designed precisely. Specific loadings and requirements are catered for and incorporated using independent design calculations. Options available include fully hidden fixings, branded glass and can be made to be either semi-permanently or permanently fixed.
Designed and Installed by experts
The complete solution from concept through to installation, our engineers create, build and then install a glazing system using an innovative glass-suction robot. We look after everything.
There’s more to our flood glazing than meets the eye.
