Limits and cautions

Get your property assessed first by an appropriately qualified flood-risk professional, including the opening size, the strength and shape of the surrounding walls, and whether the barrier can seal properly against them. The assessment must also cover safe flood depth and other ways water could enter. Read the flood-protection guide before ordering a size.
No test or testimonial can promise a particular home stays dry; the OPW advises expert advice on fit and the walls around the opening.
Seller returns are limited for custom orders; the maker's warranty is 12 months.
