DELUX Solutions for Flood-Prone Homes
In light of the recent floods that have hit several states in Malaysia, many homeowners are becoming more aware of how vulnerable their properties can be during heavy rain and rising water levels. While floods cannot always be prevented, there are practical steps homeowners can take to reduce potential damage — and one of them is the placement of your autogate motor.
At DELUX, we understand that your gate system is part of your home’s security and daily convenience. However, in flood-prone areas, traditional ground-level motor installation may increase the risk of water damage, malfunction, or costly repairs.
Why Install the Motor at a Higher Position?
- Better Protection Against Water Exposure
Elevating the autogate motor reduces the chances of it being submerged during flash floods or heavy downpours. - Longer Lifespan of Your Autogate System
A protected motor experiences fewer electrical issues, corrosion problems, and breakdowns. - Safer Operation
Floodwater and electrical components do not mix well. Keeping the motor above typical flood levels helps minimize electrical hazards. - Cost Savings in the Long Run
Preventing water damage means fewer repairs, replacements, and downtime.
DELUX Solutions for Flood-Prone Homes
For customers staying in areas with a higher likelihood of flooding, DELUX provides elevated motor installation options. Our technicians can:
- Install the motor on a raised platform
- Ensure strong, stable mounting without affecting gate performance
- Use durable materials suited for wet environments
This simple upgrade can make a big difference in protecting your home’s security system during the monsoon season.
Stay Prepared, Stay Protected
Floods can happen unexpectedly — but with the right precautions, your home can stay safer and your autogate system can last longer. If you’re unsure whether your home is at risk or you would like a professional recommendation, the DELUX team is ready to assist.
