Flood Control
International recently supplied aluminium lift-hinged flood gates to Dublin’s
Office of Public Works for installation in a new flood wall protecting the city
from flooding by the River Dodder.
The gates were
chosen due to their operability and because they do not need a step or ramp and
so can be used in public areas where disabled access is required. The gates are fitted with fully enclosed
seals and operating mechanisms to prevent vandalism and mis-use.
