Flood Protection

Proactive protection system for properties and belongings

Waterstop from BM Architectural is a high-performance, modular flood protection system engineered to safeguard property from water intrusion during flooding; it is also suitable for use as a deterrent to unlawful entry and vandalism.

It is a robust and efficient system to quickly seal off openings when disaster strikes - saving the time, money and emotional stress losses from flooding, vandalism and looting can cause.

Made from durable galvanized steel, Waterstop forms a watertight barrier that can be quickly deployed by a single person (once the side rails are fixed in place), making it ideal for both an emergency response and long-term preparedness.

The flexible design of the Waterstop system ensures its suitability for a wide range of access points including doors, windows, garages and alleyways, damming openings up to 4 metres wide. It provides reliable protection for homes and businesses, both in urban and remote locations, and is completely reuseable.

Patented, tested and with proven success across Europe for decades, Waterstop provides property owners and tenants, particularly those located in high risk flood zones, with additional peace of mind.
