Classic dam technology that’s tried and tested

Our trusted portable frame dams will successfully protect your project with the efficiency of a seasoned professional.

Introducing Portable Frame Dams

Portable frame dams are a popular temporary solution for water-based projects, relying on scaffold frames and a PVC membrane to create an impermeable barrier that keeps your contractors dry. Designed to work as a flood defence as well as a dam solution, portable frames are incredibly robust and high-quality, capable of enduring even the most changeable of environments.

This simple but effective portable dam solution uses the weight of the water to create a water-tight seal, regardless of changes in tide or configuration. In fact, frame dams can be easily moulded to almost any shape or depth, making them an easy solution to adapt to your site requirements.

Portable frame dams are trusted by contractors and infrastructure providers across the world, reducing project complications and duration while aiding with risk management. Constructed using steel ‘A’ frames, this temporary cofferdam is durable and consistently successful, so your engineers can feel confident working in and around watercourses regardless of any change in conditions.
