# Malloom D0106 Water-Activated Flood Barriers, 10 Pack, 150 cm Malloom D0106 flood barriers are water-activated absorbent bags supplied as a claimed pack of 10, each listed at 150 cm long. They are intended for positioning across doorways and other small water-entry points, but need adequate water to expand and become much heavier once activated. - [Original product page](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/product/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - [View offer](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - Market: UK - Language: en-GB - Currency: GBP - Brand: Malloom - Model: Flood Barriers for Home-D0106 - Category: Tools & Garden > Hardware & Building Materials - Price: 20.00 GBP - Previous price: 25.00 GBP - Discount: 20% - Price checked: 2026-11-14T09:53:21.827Z - Rating: 3 / 5 - Reviews: 2 Prices and deal status are the latest recorded data, not a guarantee of availability.

The listing also says each activated barrier weighs approximately 34 pounds and requires 4.25 gallons of water, but does not clearly establish how these figures apply across the pack. Confirm the selected listing's dimensions, quantity and weight details. Activation requires submerging the barrier in sufficient water, and the listing says it will not fully expand if water is insufficient. ## A good fit for - Households wanting foldable, water-activated barriers for doorways, garage entrances or other small water-entry points. - Buyers who can wet the barriers in advance of use and have space to store them dry between uses. ## Less suited to - Anyone needing a barrier that works without activation water or is immediately ready to place while dry. - Situations requiring a documented barrier height greater than the listed 3-4 inches. ## Customer feedback The available rating data is sharply split between five-star and one-star categories, with a middling overall score and only a very small sample. It does not explain the reasons behind the ratings, so it offers little basis for judging performance. Buyers should weigh that uncertainty against the listing's activation-water requirement and inconsistent pack and weight details. ## Frequently asked questions ### How many barriers are listed? The title and feature text claim 10 barriers. The item package quantity field shows 1, so confirm the selected listing's pack contents before ordering. ### How tall are the barriers when activated? The listing claims an expanded height of 3-4 inches / 7.62-10.16 cm. It does not provide a separately confirmed measurement. ### What is needed to activate them? They need to be submerged in water. The listing says each requires 4.25 gallons and will not fully expand if there is insufficient water. ### Can they be reused? The listing says they can be dried and reused, but provides no further reuse conditions. ## Alternative options - [6 Pack Flood Water Barrier Sand Bags,Thickened Long Canvas Flood Protection Sandbags,Winter Bags for Swimming Pool Covers,Reusable Quick Flood Barrier for Home Flood Control \(Light Green\)](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - [6 Pack Water Activated Flood Barriers, Sandless Flood Bags, 300CM \(Green\) \| Sandless, easy to use, strong water absorption, eco-friendly, absorb, divert and block water, for home door, garage basement](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - [150cm 5-Pack Water Activated Flood Barriers Sandless Flood Bags \| Strong Water Absorption, Absorbs & Diverts Water, Home Door & Garage Use, Easy to Use, Basement Protection](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - [6 Pack 5' x 6" Sand Bag for Flooding, Long Canvas Sandbags \| Thickened Water barriers for Flooding with Binding Elastic Band for Door Flood Control, Green](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - [6 Pack Flood Water Barrier Sand Bags,Thickened Long Canvas Flood Protection Sandbags,Winter Bags for Swimming Pool Covers,Reusable Quick Flood Barrier for Home Flood Control \(Red\) \(6Pack Green\)](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - [Qualfair Water Activated Flood Barriers, Sandless Flood Bags, 150CM, 4-Pack \| Sandless, Easy to Use, Strong Water Absorption, Eco-Friendly, Absorb, Divert and Block Water, Home Door, Garage & Basement](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - [10 Pcs Water Barrier 5 ft x 7.8 Inch Flood Barriers for Home Reusable Absorbent Flooding Prevention Barriers Sandless Sandbags for Rain Hurricane Garage Basement Door \(Black\)](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - [6 Pack Flood Water Barrier Sand Bags,Thickened Long Canvas Flood Protection Sandbags,Winter Bags for Swimming Pool Covers,Reusable Quick Flood Barrier for Home Flood Control \(Green\)](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - [Qualfair Water Activated Flood Barriers, Sandless Flood Bags, 150CM, 2-Pack \| Sandless, Easy to Use, Strong Water Absorption, Eco-Friendly, Absorb, Divert and Block Water, Home Door, Garage & Basement](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - [50mm High Garage Door Flood Barrier Threshold Seal Kit ‘GARADAM’ 2.52m \| Flexible PVC \| Complete Kit Includes 2 Adhesives \| GaraDry](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - [40mm High Garage Door Flood Barrier Threshold Seal Kit 2.21m \| Flexible PVC \| Complete Kit Includes 1 Adhesive \| GaraDry](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) - [Estresen 3FT-2Pack Water Leak Absorber, Water Barrier for Flooding Sandless Sandbags with Handles Water Absorbent Sock Flood Barrier for Garage Door Basement Water Absorbing Snake for Heavy Rain](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/visit/malloom-d0106-water-activated-flood-barriers-10-pack) ## Images ![Malloom D0106 Water-Activated Flood Barriers, 10 Pack, 150 cm — 1](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/i/aGuFpA4zFOBHGq7Rkg6kTRkfVy4Rp-2hfvwcS9xqnxu7Ce22p-QQnjUyXRInugqmIL7pSzO2_SVW5yvUtTUrf7p4EnwIfQ56TKQOe2FuMLEpZJC0OPXl4BnD.jpg) ![Malloom D0106 Water-Activated Flood Barriers, 10 Pack, 150 cm — 2](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/i/NSost47_vVA-hlaWWfol1wFzW0GPb4lI9xifOsq9AZZFSZOMIZ5RFUiZaS4hdAGTD4xyPN9PwUU_lhwIfRWFFST8STCTXkWhbDfdZgE6ED7uPnYHKffDNUGo.jpg) ![Malloom D0106 Water-Activated Flood Barriers, 10 Pack, 150 cm — 3](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/i/kxnqhqG-v3zS6jBQTj1NHIyMud6xi0oBjaduMCKnOnSdbEA6GwHSEGR7gVwLEpUz3GUpI3A9dmGjoPgTD4yZJn4a6f7qoQMefZ-w42zdon7jUb4P5DHYwHic.jpg) ![Malloom D0106 Water-Activated Flood Barriers, 10 Pack, 150 cm — 4](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/i/Jyfs46qwGHf3rn5iNDyr-TbRDfv_vGL4D45HIW9n6Z0NX94w0rOyrOtH_0KQNJ5zU9wcZ652NCBIbULXm4vrT0HDKCbcqK6kEuxJ6EmkeOjHJZqdedwKw_-7.jpg) ![Malloom D0106 Water-Activated Flood Barriers, 10 Pack, 150 cm — 5](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/i/O6kdYPLrDEHVA3gROp3BEZJxAeCa2xy44fFaVuif_JrK4sK2hnYBuFIT0mFurYWDigSGi-ARZezHKOHYDN0Nle6M-a5QGC348pjTg_X2WJc6Mrdi__NzlEGm.jpg) ![Malloom D0106 Water-Activated Flood Barriers, 10 Pack, 150 cm — 6](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/i/BjO4beJDc2wnPKY8_Niqk5GXcNIbr5QkY7cdMGg9oHE-yo-3HcK_rUVhxoKx2-TYQ0ggP_pbL--o1Os4Vqzd1_x3gFIxKyvDUp6A5Ui4lWMtxcXQHrVxPiHr.jpg) ![Malloom D0106 Water-Activated Flood Barriers, 10 Pack, 150 cm — 7](https://bargainpostbox.co.uk/i/GT2BmTaAfhNyLncZKNAVGKuyjgC19I1J1UGdg1l65hCuLBkAtjpMtuahWyy7_E8Rn6hObl2wMMIg_zLTGuD3C3k6rV8v548UG7EUar6IFgH5wDChp22kaJ1X.jpg)
