Stop Flooding Through Doorways, Hatchways, & Entryways
Our TrenchDrain™ Grated Drainage Pipe System Can Help!
Many homeowners have contacted us with concerns about water flowing into their home through hatchway entrances, down stairways, or through garage doors. When we encounter this kind of situation, we usually recommend our TrenchDrain Drainage Pipe System.
How It Works
Stop Flooding Through Garage Doors
Many of our customers have the TrenchDrain System installed along the opening to their garage door. In this application, the drain will intercept the water and direct it to your sump pump system.
We always recommend installing the drain along the inside of the garage, where it’s much less likely to freeze during the winter months.
Installing our drain along the inside of the door will also protect the system from clogging with outside debris such as dirt, sand, sticks, and leaves.
When Draining Hatchway Doors…
When installing this system on hatchway doors, we will generally recommend installing them inside the hatchway entrance (instead of in the basement where the hatch opens).
Since the TrenchDrain Drainage Pipe System includes a grated opening, it separates the drain from the basement as much as possible.
Applications & Benefits
The TrenchDrain™ Grated Drainage Pipe System offers a robust solution for homeowners concerned with water intrusion through doorways, hatchways, and entryways. Our system is designed with several key benefits to ensure effectiveness and ease of maintenance:
- Grated openings collect flooding water – The grated design captures water flowing over it, channeling it away from entry points and into your sump pump.
- Removable lid for cleaning & service – Maintenance is simple with a removable lid, allowing easy access for cleaning and ensuring optimal performance over time.
- Designed to create no tripping hazards – The drain’s flush or slightly recessed installation minimizes tripping risks, making it safe for high-traffic areas.
- Compatible with our other drain systems – TrenchDrain integrates seamlessly with other APS drainage solutions, providing a comprehensive approach to water management
- Works with radon mitigation systems – Our system’s compatibility with radon mitigation solutions ensures it meets a wide range of basement and foundation needs.
- Includes a written lifetime warranty – For added peace of mind, we back our system with a lifetime warranty, demonstrating our commitment to quality.
