MODERNAcut

DIY Flood Barrier

Deployment in as little as 3 seconds

DIY barrier to be cut to size.

RAPID MODERNAcut is the ideal compression-fitted flood barrier for protecting doors, garages, commercial establishments, and entrances of all kinds. The MODERNAcut do-it-yourself flood barrier is designed for custom installation to fit the specific space and entrances to be protected. Careful material selection, meticulous craftsmanship, and attention to aesthetics make MODERNAcut a custom-fit barrier that is both attractive and unobtrusive, without compromising on reliability and durability.

DIY Flood Barrier

MODERNAcut is a line of do-it-yourself flood barriers that puts control in your hands. With MODERNAcut, you determine the dimensions of the barrier, tailoring it perfectly to your personal needs. This unique solution gives you the freedom to create a custom flood barrier, thanks to its innovative design and the complete kit provided for easy assembly.

MODERNAcut stands out as a barrier specifically designed for DIY enthusiasts who have the basic skills needed to assemble the flood barrier. Without the need for specialized expertise, you can create your own flood defense, saving both time and money.

Functional

The MODERNAcut do-it-yourself flood barrier is made of anodised aluminium; its smooth, seamless slats allow for easy cleaning. It is quick and easy to install, lightweight, and easy to position. No installation work is required.

Made to measure to fit the opening, whether it is at right angles or not. The pressure-fixing mechanism moves smoothly and is much more convenient than similar flood barriers on the market.

This innovative system allows you to install the MODERNAcut do-it-yourself barrier smoothly and without a snap, requiring less effort than similar products. The system features a self-locking mechanism and a special removable locking handle.

  • It requires no installation work, masonry, permanent fastening systems, or the application of side profiles when mounted on a suitable window or door frame or on a 2-cm-protruding interior frame that needs to be protected.
  • If you do not have a suitable threshold for installing the MODERNAcut DIY flood barrier, we can provide a metal (flat) profile to make the surface smooth and level.

Features

▶︎ SAFETY

The latch is secured with a safety screw to prevent it from being drilled out. There is no longer any risk of permanently crushing your fingers.
The tab prevents fingers from getting pinched between the two barrier panels when they are opened or closed.

▶︎ GASKET

The horizontal gasket is a single, unbroken piece that extends across both barrier panels. The rectangular-shaped gaskets provide lateral compression support, and their right-angle design ensures a better seal against water and water pressure compared to other shapes. Special “pins” ensure adequate compression of the horizontal gasket.

▶︎ PADLOCK CLOSURE

The lock latch does not protrude, is not exposed to flooding, and the lock remains protected beneath the top handle.

▶︎ LOCKING SYSTEM

It can be applied with minimal effort, thanks to the Soft Block, and does not come undone when pressed from the inside: Security Block. When handling it, the special tab prevents you from pinching your fingers: Safety Block.

▶︎ AFFORDABLE PRICE

If the opening is smooth and level on the left, bottom and right, the MODERNA series can reduce installation labour costs.

Quality

▶︎ PRACTICALITY

The standard exterior handle can be removed, while the top handle allows for use from both the inside and the outside.

▶︎ DURABILITY

Our patented hinge between the two barrier panels (the smaller panel and the main panel) is stronger than others on the market.

▶︎ ERGONOMICS

The patented mechanism prevents the barrier from widening excessively and then contracting again, so less effort is needed, even for taller models. Movement is smooth and free of the snap action found in similar products. The handle’s ergonomic grip provides support, safety and force. The barrier can be opened from inside or outside. It can also be made slightly trapezoidal so the lateral gaskets compress correctly with less force.

▶︎ LACK OF ORTHOGONALITY

If the opening is not square, a barrier can be installed with a “plumb” deviation of ±4 mm on one side and ±2 mm on the opposite side, ensuring that the barrier conforms to the shape of the opening.
