Slide Gates

We offer gates in 304L SS or 316L SS for water treatment facilities, stormwater systems, reservoirs, irrigation systems, flood control etc.

Depending on the application, gates are built to meet and exceed the AWWA C561 guidelines that determine acceptable leakage rates, materials, safety factors etc. Standard design allows for a seating/un-seating head of 10 m. The gates can be designed to accommodate higher head.

Each gate is tested prior to shipping to ensure it operates properly and is below the maximum leakage rates allowed.

We also build gates to meet the AWWA leakage requirements only. These are still robust gates built with a comfortable factor of safety that will provide a long design life and reliable operation.
