How to measure your door frame
Floodshield's come in 6 standard sizes that fit nearly all inward opening residential doors.
To work out which size you need measure between the brickwork as shown in measurement A.
Choose the Floodshield size which is nearest to, but not larger than the measurement to allow the barrier to clip to and seal against the outside surface of the doorframe.
The barrier must overlap onto the doorframe a minimum of 1½" (38mm) each side.
Choosing the correct door frame style
-
Open Style Door Frame
For the more common open style frames that don't have a bottom section. The Floodshield seals to the frames vertical sides and down onto the sil using the barrier's specially designed bottom seal. This creates a water tight barrier whether it be onto a concrete, stone, metal or timber sil.
-
-
-
Closed Style Door Frame
Used on full, closed style frames that have a bottom section. These are commonly found on UPVC doors that come pre-built into the frames. Using a more streamline seal, the Floodshield seals against the frames vertical sides and bottom section, creating a uniformed and water tight seal between the frame and barrier.
-
-
Check your door frame depth
-
The Floodshield's clips come in two lengths to accommodate different depth frames; one for standard frames and another for thin frames. Although the clips are adjustable, the thin depth door frames found on UPVC doors need a considerably shorter clip than standard frames. Floodshields come with clips for standard door frames as these fit the majority of doors.
If you have a thin door frame then add a note to your order in the cart, or contact the team.

How to install the barrier
To install your Floodshield Barrier, first clean the doorway area to ensure an effective seal. Adjust the barrier's clips to match your door frame's width, loosening them slightly for easier alignment. Ensure the barrier is centered and level, then press it firmly against the door frame and secure by fastening the clips. Finally, inspect the seal around the entire perimeter to ensure there are no gaps. A comprehensive, watertight seal is crucial for effective flood protection.

Flood gate received and very easy to fit, had to order longer screws, but they arrived quickly and so easy to fit. I hope i never have to use it!!
Very expensive for what it is ,quality not great,very flimsy ,could have made one for sub £50
The shield fits well, have not had to use it since last getting flooded. A great product. Delivery was promised , but kept getting delayed. Glad to see your website now states the correct time of 3 weeks.
Floodshield is an excellent product however my order was damaged I ordered 2 floodshield barriers . 1 barrier was perfect the other badly scratched. I arranged for it to be returned however it was not picked up when promised then was told that the new one would be delivered that same week which it wasn't. When contacting floodshield I was told it would be delivered to me Monday 28/10/24 however it was not so once again I contacted floodshield left a message has no one was available and now if is 30/10/24 and I have still not received my replacement floodshield barrier!
I am sad to say that the customer service that floodshield supplies is extremely poor but the floodshield barrier itself is excellent.
The customer service was very good I hope I never have to use the floodgate but it is peace of mind to know it is ready to use
Frequently asked questions
Do flood barriers really work?
Yes they do. Floodshield has been extensively tested in flood test facilities, and of course by customers in real life flood situations.
What size door will a Floodshield protect?
Floodshield will protect most residential single doors: from 760mm wide to 960mm wide.
How do I know if I need a Standard Floodshield or a uPVC Floodshield?
uPVC Floodshields are only for use with doorframes that have a continuous bottom threshold. All other doors require a Standard Floodshield.
My doorframe is very deep. Will your clips reach the frame?
Our Floodshields come fitted with standard 50mm bolts. Longer bolts can be supplied if required.
How easy is it to fit a Floodshield?
Very easy. Floodshield was designed knowing that sometimes you have to fit it in an emergency. Simply wind the clips to the length you want, and press into place.
Do you really not need any tools or permanent attachments to my home?
You really don't! You don't need to have any ugly attachments to your building, or find the tool box when there is a flood warning. Simply take the Floodshield out from storage and clip it into place.
How tall is the Floodshield?
Floodshield is 58cm high, or roughly 2 feet.
How much does a Floodshield weigh?
A Floodshield weighs only 5kg and so can be carried and fitted by most people from 8 to 80+!
How long will the Floodshield Barrier last if used regularly?
The Floodshield Door Barrier will last indefinitely as a result of the materials used in its design - it is made of tough Polypropylene rather than cheap wood like some barriers. And all attachments are fixed the barrier so you don't have to worry about loosing them when you need them most.
What warranty do I get?
2 Years warranty and 60 days money back guarantee.
