FAQ – AquaLOCK® Windows Protector Flood Protection
The AquaLOCK® Windows Protector is a retrofit acrylic flood‑protection barrier designed to reliably seal façade and basement windows against heavy rain, rising water, and flooding. It is mounted externally to create a watertight seal that prevents water from entering through vulnerable window openings.
The Windows Protector is engineered to resist up to 2 meters of water pressure for 24 hours thanks to its 15 mm thick acrylic construction and robust mounting and sealing design.
Installation is designed to be simple and fast:
- The acrylic barrier is adhered externally to the window frame.
- Special sealing adhesive ensures a watertight bond.
- Installation can be performed directly on the frame or on the house wall.
No major construction work or window replacement is required.
Yes. Two functional versions are available:
- Tilting hatch for ventilation
- Removable hatch that can be taken off and re‑attached easily
Everyday use of the window opening remains possible while maintaining flood protection.
The Windows Protector is ideal for:
- Basement windows (most vulnerable to flooding)
- Façade windows close to ground level
- Light‑well windows
- Other small exterior openings that require external sealing

Yes, the Windows Protector can be enhanced with:
- Integrated insect screen
- Various hatch sizes for different openings
- Flexible installation options (frame or wall mounted)
Yes. The additional acrylic layer creates an insulating air gap, improving the thermal performance of the basement or façade window.
Standard basement windows cannot withstand the hydrostatic pressure that builds during flooding.
When water accumulates in light wells, it quickly forces its way through standard rubber seals, leading to rapid water intrusion.
The AquaLOCK® Windows Protector externally seals the frame to prevent this.
