MOBILE FLOOD PROTECTION BARRIER SYSTEM
STEINHARDT FLOOD PROTECTION SYSTEM STEINHARDT FLOOD PROTECTION SYSTEM
Mobile Flood Barrier System In recent years Ireland has experienced localised flooding costing millions of euro in damage.With the risk of flooding and subsequent damage to property likely to increase, cost effective systems for flood protection are required for private and commercial property owners. The Steinhardt Flood Barrier System was developed to replace the outdated and labour intensive “sand bag” method of property protection, to provide a robust, efficient, easy to install flood barrier, simply fitted along highways, into door openings, warehouse doorways etc.
A stainless steel frame is supplied, complete with base plate and side guide rails. This can be installed by a local builder and sealed off when not in use with stainless steel cover plates. When extreme flooding is forecast, the cover plates can be easily removed and the lightweight aluminum panels are placed into the frame and locked via the clamping system. The number of aluminum panels will depend on the expected flood levels. The panels are manufactured from a lightweight extruded section which are easily manhandled and stored when not in use. For highways and along riverbanks etc, stainless steel “post plates” are set into a concrete base. During flood risk events the post plates for the Barrier system guide

posts are removed and the posts inserted, they are then securely bolted down creating the sealing and location frame for the aluminum sections. The Patented design of the Steinhardt system incorporates a special system of sealing between each panel and the side guide rails. This produces a sealed barrier constructed to withstand the maximum head of flood water without allowing any leakage.
