CEL Stainless Steel Floodgate
While working as a contractor to the Kaipara District Council, maintaining their comprehensive network of floodgates, flood pumps, and sluice gates, we developed a cheap and effective clamp-on gate for virtually any type of culvert. It is a stainless steel clamping system with a plastic flap and covers culverts up to approx. one metre in diameter.
Alongside this clamp, we developed a head wall to contain soil to reduce issues caused by falling soil. This combination of lightweight material and easy installation has now become the preferred floodgate solution for many farmers across New Zealand.
