Slot Drain looks better than grated drains in landscape and public applications. But that’s just the beginning. ADA accessibility compliance means they are safe for wheelchairs. Lower installation costs means you can redirect some budget now. And outstanding durability combined with easier and safer cleaning means you can reduce ongoing maintenance costs.
Traditional trench drains, while still sometimes used in landscape and urban design applications, are now being viewed as somewhat clunky and obsolete. Many designers and architects have begun to move away from this outdated style of drainage due to its lack of design flexibility and high rate of maintenance issues.
Visually Disruptive – Unappealing decorative grates draw attention
Difficult to maintain and clean
Grates bend and break – requiring eventual replacement
Damaged grating can also present safety risks

Sleek and clean lines – no messy grates
Safety is top priority – any drain can be ADA compliant
Easy to maintain – specialized cleaning tools
Durable design – stands up to heavy traffic over time
Slot Drain is the most durable drainage system available. The only parts of the drain exposed are the surface angles, which are made of stainless steel. The rest of the drain is embedded into the concrete, so it can handle whatever weight you want to put on it. There is no grating, which deteriorates / breaks / bends and needs replacing. This makes it especially suited for heavy/high traffic areas, such as vehicle maintenance facilities, airports, parkades, warehouses, truck and rail loading docks.
