![FB44 Floodgate](https://www.presray.com/hs-fs/file-28918912-png/images/fb44_childrens-hospital-retouched_hero.png)This heavy-duty, side-hinged floodgate is ideal in flash flood environments where a flush bottom sill is required. When floodwaters begin to rise, simply close the gate, slide the locking bolts and inflate the seals. Dual seals on the sides and bottom of the gate provide redundant protection. Every FB44 is custom built for virtually any size opening. They are suitable for both new construction and for retrofitting into the openings of existing structures. In both situations, the sill can be recessed to prevent a tripping hazard. For extra wide openings, dual FB44s floodgate can be used together with a center mullion. If your facility needs maximum flood protection that can be easily deployed in minutes, the FB44 is the proven solution.

#### RELIABLE FLOOD PROTECTION AT A MOMENTS NOTICE

If your facility demands fast, maximum flood protection, there’s no better solution. Once the gate is closed, and the slide bolts are locked in place, the FB44 is inflated in minutes by either a hand pump, compressed air tank, or air compressor.

#### APPLICATIONS — THE FB44 FLOODGATE AT WORK

The FB44 is perfect for doorway openings, loading docks, parking garages or any other openings in municipal, industrial or commercial facilities. If your facility is prone to flash flooding, the FB44’s hinged floodgate and pneumatic seals offers the maximum and most efficient protection available.
