NOAQ Boxwall Mobile Flood Protection - BW52 - 19 Inch Height

The NOAQ Boxwall is a freestanding temporary flood barrier. It is designed specifically for the urban environment, with even surfaces like asphalt streets, but it works as well on lawns etc.

A NOAQ Boxwall BW52 is able to dam 19" of water and is self-anchoring. It is automatically ballasted by the own weight of the flood water. The higher the water rises, the harder the barrier is pressed firm against the ground. Utilizing the weight of the water, the barrier itself doesn’t need to be heavy. Individual ”boxes” weigh only 13.7 lbs each and the barrier not more than 15.3 per 3'. This makes it easy to use, and very fast. Two people can build 656 linear feet of Boxwall in an hour.

A Boxwall is built by snapping the boxes together. No tools are needed. Gradual curves are made by connecting the boxes at a slight angle, and for corners there are specific corner boxes.

The Boxwall can also be used during a flash flooding event to divert water away from vulnerable areas. A number of boxes are put in the flowing water and will stick directly to the ground.

The boxes are stackable, which means they require very little space for storage and transport. 26 boxes (23 m) fit on a standard pallet, and a 40’ container can take 1.1 km of Boxwall.

If you are creating a circle with “Outside Corners” you would be keeping water OUT. If you are creating a circle with “Inside Corners” you would be keeping water IN

When you are surrounding a house to keep water out, you need outside corners.

If you are concerned about wind being an issue, we recommend that you place sandbags on top of the foot of the wall.
