{"product_id":"oyster-self-rising-mechanical-flood-gate","title":"Oyster Self-Rising Mechanical Flood Gate","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Oyster™ Self-Rising Mechanical Flood Gate is a passive, water-activated barrier designed to protect downward-sloping entrances against approaching floodwater. It is particularly well suited for parking garage ramps, driveway ramps, loading docks, transit entrances, tunnels, and other below-grade access points where rapid flooding could occur without enough time for manual deployment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring normal conditions, the Oyster panels lie flat so vehicles and pedestrians can pass over the protected entrance. As floodwater approaches, water enters internal cavities within the barrier modules. The resulting buoyancy automatically raises the panels into a near-vertical position, creating a rigid flood wall without electricity, motors, external power, or human intervention.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen floodwater recedes, water drains from the internal cavities and the system can be returned to its flat standby position following the prescribed reset procedure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOyster is built from connected modular panels and configured to match the width and required protection height of the project. Standard modules are combined with narrower filler modules and flexible wall seals to achieve a close fit across the protected opening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable in approximately 24-inch, 36-inch, and 48-inch protection heights, Oyster can be installed as either a recessed in-ground system or a surface-mounted retrofit. Its heavy-duty, anti-skid construction is designed for vehicle and pedestrian traffic while the barrier is in its closed position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Automatically rises in response to approaching floodwater\u003cbr\u003e- Requires no electricity, motor, battery, pump, or manual deployment\u003cbr\u003e- Designed for downward-sloping and below-grade entrances\u003cbr\u003e- Lies flat during normal use for vehicle and pedestrian access\u003cbr\u003e- Available in approximately 24-inch, 36-inch, and 48-inch protection heights\u003cbr\u003e- Modular construction accommodates a wide range of opening widths\u003cbr\u003e- Standard and filler modules provide project-specific sizing\u003cbr\u003e- Available in surface-mounted and embedded configurations\u003cbr\u003e- Flexible side-wall and inter-panel seals help control leakage\u003cbr\u003e- Anti-skid driving surface\u003cbr\u003e- Optional deployment alarm and monitoring components\u003cbr\u003e- Durable, low-maintenance construction\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garrison Flood","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50522811629718,"sku":null,"price":3.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/4118\/8502\/files\/oyster-1.png?v=1790606668","url":"https:\/\/moreprepared.com\/products\/oyster-self-rising-mechanical-flood-gate","provider":"More Prepared","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
