The vault foreverything you can carry.
Documents. Art. Vinyl. Instruments. Jewelry. Hard drives. The FloodVault Valuables is a compact, sealed-base waterproof envelope for the personal collection that doesn't fit in a safe and can't ride out a flood on a shelf.
TIZIP® MasterSeal
Marine-grade continuous zipper — the same closure used in professional drysuits.
Sealed-base envelope
Continuous waterproof floor pan. No perimeter, no gap for water to find.
10-minute deployment
One person. No tools, no power, no hardware. Deployed in the last window before a storm.
Reusable across events
Fold flat, store on a shelf, deploy again for the next watch.
Fifteen steps. One sealed envelope.
A working walk-through of a real FloodVault Valuables deployment — from folded package to closed, sealed vault ready for standing water.
STEP 01 / 15It arrives folded.
FloodVault Valuables ships flat in a compact package. No hardware, no power tools, no professional installation.
STEP 02 / 15Unroll on any flat surface.
Driveway, garage floor, patio, or lawn. The heavy-duty PVC lays flat and holds its shape while you pack.
STEP 03 / 15Open the TIZIP® MasterSeal.
The same watertight zipper used in professional drysuits runs the full length of the vault. Open it wide to load.
STEP 04 / 15Stage what you're saving.
Documents, records, art, jewelry, electronics, small tools — anything that would be lost if the water came up.
STEP 05 / 15Label the boxes.
A five-minute step that saves an hour on the other side of the storm. Photograph everything before it goes in.
STEP 06 / 15Load the largest items first.
Framed art, banker's boxes, and rigid cases go against the base. The vault's floor pan is the same waterproof pane as the walls — one continuous seal.
STEP 07 / 15Nest the softer items.
Photo albums, vinyl records, textiles and instruments settle between the rigid pieces. The envelope shapes to the load.
STEP 08 / 15Tuck the small, priceless things.
Jewelry, hard drives, passports, deeds. The things you would go back for. They ride in the middle where the load is deepest.
STEP 09 / 15Keep the perimeter clear.
Leave a clean margin around the zipper track so nothing fouls the seal. That margin is what makes the closure watertight.
- STEP 10 / 15
Finish the load.
Stack the last boxes squarely. A well-packed Valuables closes cleanly the first time.
STEP 11 / 15Fold the top in.
Bring the two sides of the envelope over the load and align the zipper halves along their track.
STEP 12 / 15Walk the zipper closed.
The TIZIP MasterSeal is a marine-grade continuous zipper — slow, deliberate, and completely watertight when fully engaged.
STEP 13 / 15Seat the closure.
Run the zipper all the way to the stop. Press the closure flat. This is the moment the vault becomes a vault.
STEP 14 / 15Confirm the seal.
One pass with your hand along the closure to check for a fouled tooth or a stray strap. Thirty seconds of care.
STEP 15 / 15Walk away.
That's it. Your valuables are inside a sealed, waterproof envelope built for standing water, rain, wind-driven debris and the mess that follows a flood.
A flood vault, not a storage cover.
FloodVault is event protection. It is built to be deployed when water is the threat — a named-storm watch, a flash-flood warning, a river crest, a hurricane evacuation — and opened again once the threat has passed. It is not designed, sold, or warranted as a season-long or indefinite storage cover.
The reason is physics, not a defect. Any sealed, waterproof envelope holds whatever humidity is inside it when you close it. Left sealed for weeks or months — especially outdoors, in sun, with day-to-night temperature swings — that trapped moisture condenses on cool surfaces. On a collection that can mean mildew on upholstery, musty carpet, surface corrosion on bare metal, and mold. We would rather tell you that plainly before you buy than have you discover it after a season.
Do
- • Load the collection clean and completely dry — no wet tires, no damp interior.
- • Deploy inside the watch/warning window, ideally 24–48 hours ahead.
- • Add a desiccant pack inside the envelope for multi-day deployments.
- • Unseal, open, and air everything out once the water risk is over.
- • Rinse, dry fully, and fold the vault away indoors between events.
Don't
- • Don't use FloodVault as a winter, seasonal, or indefinite storage cover.
- • Don't seal a wet, freshly washed, or dirty collection inside it.
- • Don't leave a vault sealed outdoors in direct sun for extended periods.
- • Don't treat it as a substitute for a climate-controlled storage space.
- • Don't fold and store the vault damp.
Moisture damage that results from long-term sealed storage is a use condition, not a product defect, and is not covered under the FloodVault warranty. If you need months of protection rather than days, keep the vault for the event window and use a breathable indoor cover the rest of the time.
Have the vault before you need the vault.
FloodVault Valuables ships flat and stores on a shelf. When the watch goes up, it deploys in ten minutes — so the paperwork, the records, the jewelry, and the irreplaceable pieces of a household are already sealed before the water gets close.
