When someone is looking to upgrade the functionality of their home, every detail counts. When crafting a home that covers every single base, we can overlook a number of crucial elements, and one of these is a threshold drain. Let’s show you

What is a Threshold Drain? 

A threshold drain is a specialised drainage system. It works to manage water flow at entrance points around the home or areas where water control is vital. You would see a threshold drain installed at doors, patios, balconies, or anywhere where water can infiltrate the property. Its primary goal is to prevent water from entering your home, while also maintaining your home's aesthetic appeal.

What Can a Threshold Drain Do for Your Home? 

A threshold drain offers so many different benefits:

Water Diversion

A threshold drain diverts water from the door track away from the inside of the property, ensuring that any rainwater or water from outdoor activities does not infiltrate your living space. At Aquabocci, we provide versatile drainage systems and a threshold drain should be both a stylish and preventative solution. Our R-47 Threshold Drain's PVC channel and EPDM membrane ensure that water is removed as quickly as possible. As the water flows through the drainage system, the EPDM is a barrier between the grate and the door, which collects any runoff from the drainage holes, which we refer to as the “drainage technique,” and is an essential part of what makes this product so special.

Safety

A threshold drain can enhance safety around the home. Water is a slippery customer, and our threshold drains can prevent any potentially hazardous conditions caused by pooling water on walkways and entrances. As the water drains away, you can guarantee minimal impact on your property. What's more, the threshold drain is heel guard safe, which ensures that nobody gets tripped up by the drain. With a non-slip finish available on all Aquabocci products, including an optional Aquabocci WunderGrip, you can guarantee safety in every corner of your home where there’s a drainage solution.

Aesthetics

Threshold drains are designed to not stand out. Visual appeal is always a priority in anybody's property. This is why we have designed custom looks with modular systems to ensure you can have the protection your property needs without detracting from the aesthetics. The R-47 has four different colours (GT silver, titanium, black, and champagne), ensuring you can install the threshold drain effortlessly without compromising the look of the property. Every threshold drain is made from marine-grade aluminium, which is guaranteed to not tea stain, corrode, or rust around chlorinated water or salt water, so you can reap the benefits of a poolside setting close to the home without it damaging aesthetics.

Versatility

Ultimately, the R-47 is designed for maximum versatility. In addition to its colour palette, you can customise the threshold drain any way you want. Its functionality means you can cut it to any length, and with additional components, including connectors and caps and external corners, means that there is functionality literally at every corner.

What Are the Best Uses for Threshold Drains? 

Threshold drains are at their optimum in areas where water control and water safety are essential. You can find threshold drains in a number of different areas, including the following:

Commercial Spaces

Threshold drains are not just limited to residential properties; they are very effective in hotels, retail establishments, and restaurants where there can be major water runoff, especially after adverse weather conditions that can compromise aesthetics and safety.

Balconies and Terraces

The most common use for a threshold drain is between living area and outdoor area to create a level finish from interior to exterior. Water can accumulate in elevated areas and potentially have nowhere to go. Threshold drains are incredibly effective against any form of water accumulation, ensuring that your outdoor spaces are safe from slippage and are also dry.

Entryways

At the entrance of any property, such as on a large front entry, a threshold drain will keep a flush finish and effectively manage any rainwater runoff, prevent water from seeping inside, and maintain the aesthetics of your property in every way.
