How the RatGate works
HOW IT WORKS
The device opens with the direction of flow, which allows water / waste to pass effortlessly through the device, without allowing rats to push against it and gain access to your property.
The RatGate can be easily installed either by yourself or by a drainage contractor / builder. Watch our instructional video to see for yourself just how simple it is to install.
The RatGate is made using 100% stainless steel and its unique design means it cannot be dislodged accidentally.
