Garages
Wide residential or commercial garage openings reviewed for span, threshold, and mounting conditions.
For contractors, builders & design teams
Flood barrier systems for contractors, builders, and commercial projects.
Rubicon provides professionally measured aluminum flood barrier systems for garages, doors, sliders, storefronts, and other suitable openings. We can review plans, opening schedules, site conditions, and field dimensions to help determine project fit.
Rubicon provides field measurement and installation services throughout its verified Southwest Florida service area. Out-of-area supply or specification support may be reviewed case-by-case.
Technical proof
A measured, removable opening system.
Rubicon Flood Panels use modular 6063-T6 aluminum planks with EPDM sealing faces. Project-specific layouts still depend on measured dimensions, mounting conditions, substrate, water path, and opening review.
What the project team should understand
- Removable components
- Barrier panels are deployed when needed and stored between events.
- Installed components
- Mounting components remain where required by the selected configuration and site conditions.
- Wide spans
- Post spacing, corners, returns, and center supports are reviewed for the actual opening layout.
- Field information
- Final dimensions and mounting conditions require project review before fabrication and final pricing.
Verified technical resources
Additional project-specific technical information is available with project review. These links are published references, not a project approval or final configuration.
Application fit
Where Rubicon systems may fit.
Final suitability depends on opening dimensions, mounting conditions, substrate, water path, and project-specific review.
Entry doors
Front, side, service, and utility door openings with reviewable thresholds and mounting zones.
Sliding glass doors
Low-threshold slider openings where tracks, adjacent finishes, and bypass paths can be reviewed.
Lanais / patio openings
Larger residential spans evaluated for geometry, supports, substrate, and site conditions.
Storefronts
Selected commercial entry and glazed-opening applications subject to project-specific review.
Multi-opening schedules
Residential, multifamily, and commercial scopes coordinated by opening ID and project stage.
Coordination process
From project information to coordinated installation.
A concise review path keeps opening IDs, dimensions, responsibilities, and project milestones traceable.
- Step 1
Send project details
Plans, opening schedule, photos, dimensions, project stage, and location where available.
- Step 2
Rubicon reviews scope
We identify applicable openings, missing information, and whether field measurement is required.
- Step 3
Confirm dimensions and configuration
Final dimensions, mounting conditions, and the opening-specific layout are reviewed before fabrication and final pricing.
- Step 4
Coordinate fabrication and installation
Rubicon coordinates the accepted system, field installation within its service scope, and deployment guidance.
Service boundary
Southwest Florida field service.
Rubicon provides field measurement and installation services throughout its verified Southwest Florida service area, including Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Naples, Sarasota, Bonita Springs, Sanibel, and Marco Island.
Projects outside this area may be reviewed for supply, specification, or coordination support on a case-by-case basis. Submission does not confirm service availability or a project configuration.
Review the published service area →Useful project information
- Opening ID, level, room, elevation, and use
- Clear width, required height or design basis, threshold, and jamb dimensions
- Substrate, finishes, tracks, screens, hardware, returns, and adjacent openings
- Project stage, bid or permit milestone, storage, access, and deployment responsibility
Preliminary drawings can support scope review. Final fabrication information depends on confirmed dimensions and mounting conditions.
Frequently asked questions
Can Rubicon review architectural drawings?
Yes. Submit current plans, elevations, opening schedules, and relevant photos where available. Drawing review supports preliminary project review but does not replace final field dimensions or project-specific confirmation.
What dimensions are needed for preliminary review?
Provide clear opening width, anticipated barrier height, threshold and jamb conditions, and the proposed barrier line where available. Rubicon will identify missing information and whether field measurement is required.
Can Rubicon coordinate multiple openings on one project?
Yes. Multi-opening project schedules can be reviewed by opening ID so dimensions, configuration, project stage, and coordination needs remain traceable.
What stays permanently installed and what is removable?
Barrier panels are removable and stored between events. Mounting components remain installed where required by the selected configuration and project conditions.
Can Rubicon support retrofit and new-construction projects?
Both may be reviewed. Retrofit scopes require review of existing finishes, substrate, access, and field conditions. New construction can coordinate mounting zones, thresholds, finishes, and storage earlier in the project.
What information should I send with the project?
Send the project location and stage, opening types and approximate count, requested support, available dimensions, notes, and current plans, schedules, drawings, or opening photos.
What file types can I upload?
The project form accepts PDF, JPEG, PNG, and WebP files. Upload up to five files, with a maximum size of four megabytes per file.
Does Rubicon install outside Southwest Florida?
Verified field measurement and installation service is in Southwest Florida. Out-of-area projects may be reviewed for supply, specification, or coordination support on a case-by-case basis.
Can a system be specified before final field dimensions?
Published product information can support preliminary review. Final configuration, fabrication, and final pricing require confirmed dimensions, mounting conditions, and project-specific review.
