Rubicon also designs and manufactures water control gates which are tailored to a customer's specific needs.

Custom Gates
Rubicon technology engineered to order

These designs can be variations on our standard gate products or the possible use of traditional sluice gate or radial gate designs.

Where possible Rubicon prefers the use of its proven technologies as standard quality components in its gate designs:

  • FormiPanel gate panels
  • CableDrive drive train and actuation system
  • SolarDrive power management circuitry
  • Pedestal Cabinet configuration
  • MicronLevel water level sensors

Often large gate structures require special design features and need to be handled as one-off projects. Rubicon's team of design engineers have the necessary skills and capability for custom projects.

Our highly experienced engineering team specializes in:
  • Composite material and sandwich panel design
  • Finite element analysis design
  • High quality aluminum and stainless steel fabrication
