Locking Line Barriers is proud to introduce a revolutionary product line that's primed to set a new bar in large-scale flood protection, WaterBlocks™, along with our new Digital Barrier Sharing Network.

WaterBlocks™ have many useful applications including crowd - traffic safety and control, construction site protection, natural resource conservation and more.
Looking ahead, Locking Line Barriers has also developed an integrated business model for long-term success and growth in our new Barrier Sharing Network, a forward-thinking solution that enables communities to have timely access to WaterBlocks™ on a cost-effective, as-needed basis.
Flooding strikes with little notice, but WaterBlocks™ empowers municipalities, governmental agencies and NGO's to be better equipped with a new Tool to protect lives, communities and our environment.

"Locking Line Barriers was founded with the mission to provide a superior flood protection system to help saves lives, our communities, and our environment."
What We've Accomplished So Far
Locking Line Barriers has secured the exclusive license to the Global Rights to Market, License and Distribute the WaterBlocks™ product line and related services. Which included the right to utilize the WaterBlocks™ trademark as an alternate corporate identity during the term of the license.
With over 100 years of combined experience in industrial manufacturing, construction, disaster response, damage control and logistical operations, we are poised to capitalize on the market viability of our superior flood barrier protection system.
In preparation to go to market, we've already gone to great lengths to execute an in-depth market research study as well as create a comprehensive WaterBlocks marketing and sales system for the Distribution, Sales & Sub-Licensing of WaterBlocks™ products and services.
We've also developed a forward-thinking community-driven 'Barrier Sharing Network' to provide for the efficient rental and rapid deployment of WaterBlocks™ systems - more on that below.
Looking ahead, our next major steps are as follows:
- Provide everyday investors with an opportunity to participate in LLB equity ownership and future profits regardless of networth
- Create Revenue Sharing (investment pools) for Barrier Sharing Network inventory expansion
- Establish financing options for potential clients
- Build Locking Line Barriers Corporation dba WaterBlocks™ into a profitable global organization for the benefit of its shareholders and to help the communities it serves save lives, property and our environment
With your help, we'll be able to get there quicker - and WaterBlocks™ will too. Please read on to see how we're inventively using new technology to solve a major topical problem that affects us all.
The Problem: How Do You Stop a Flood?
You Don’t! All you can do is divert the flood waters elsewhere.
So what can stand between a community and a flood?
Flooding is a growing concern for millions of people and municipalities nationwide. Despite that, there haven't been any major enhancements to flood protection over the years, leaving us relegated to these basic tools:
concrete walls
jersey barriers
sandbags
anything else handy at the time
Fact is - once it starts raining, it's already too late. Communities need a faster, more reliable solution to this looming threat. Most all flood control tools currently available in the US are heavy, not easily moveable or deployable and typically permanent once constructed.
There are, of course, a number of existing plastic barriers on the market - however being designed for traffic safety and control, their uses are limited, rendering them useless for flood control or liquid overflow management.
Over the past three years we have had extensive discussions with municipalities and various governmental agencies reflecting a common theme professed by all: an additional source of flood barrier supply and support is neededOur communities' needs can't just rely on FEMA, NGO’s and the occasional local vendor.
The incredible demand and outstanding need for new and improved flood protection systems is evidenced by the US Army Corps of Engineers’ recent inquiry to Locking Line Barriers which read as follows:
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is seeking System for Award Management (SAM) Database registered businesses that can provide temporary perimeter flood barriers in the event of a flood emergency... Particularly:
"the purpose of this NOTICE is to gain knowledge of potential sources that have the ability to provide temporary perimeter flood barriers that meet the following requirements:
- Product designed specifically to facilitate flood risk reduction measures and is meant to be rapidly installed just prior to a flood event, and disassembled after flood waters recede.
- Product installation can be performed manually and/or with mechanized equipment.
- May be reusable or disposable.
- May be for rental or purchase.
- Vendor technical advisor(s) may be available to train on proper setup, utilization, and teardown/repackaging before, during or after the event."
End Notice.
The WaterBlocks™ Solution
In response to the unresolved need for new and improved flood protection systems, Locking Line Barriers proudly introduces WaterBlocks™ to the Army Corps of Engineers - and the world at-large.
WaterBlocks™ are our proprietary line of steel-reinforced plastic polyethylene blocks which link and lock together using magnetic vinyl seals to create a rapidly-deployable plastic wall of watertight protection that prevents liquid penetration at the joints, provides a dry side of protection and diverts the flow of flood water and other fluids.
Since disaster response calls for fast action, we've also ingeniously designed our lightweight blocks to fit together both when deployed and during shipping - so that an entire fleet of WaterBlocks™ may be rapidly-deployed via semi-trailer trucks.
WaterBlocks™ Design
Main Unit
Shipping Set
Deployed
A detailed product explanation video.
WaterBlocks™ have been strategically designed in modular fashion for efficient shipping and minimizing storage space when not in use.
Interlocking and able to be configured any number of ways, each of LLB's WaterBlocks™ has a footprint of less than 4'x4' and the ability to flex up to 15-degrees in either direction at the joints to provide a wall that curves based on natural changes to the landscape.
Individual WaterBlocks™ weigh approximately 50 pounds when empty, so units may be easily carried, placed and configured by a single person. On the other hand, once automatically filled with flood water, the weight of each WaterBlocks™ swells to a mighty 1,766 pounds - making it a formidable barrier between what's wet and what's dry.
Just look at what can fit inside a single semi-trailer truck:
- 96 WaterBlocks™ Main Units
- 8 WaterBlocks™ Corner Turning Units
That's 416 linear feet of heavy-duty, customizable protection packed in a 53' trailer! And while that's a standard configuration, any grouping of barriers may be accommodated as the need arises.
WaterBlocks™ Key Features:
- VERSATILE
- Change Wall Assembly Direction as required
- Control Flooding, Traffic, Crowds & Hazardous Waste
- CUSTOMIZABLE
- Efficiently Lock & Seal Barriers into any configuration
- Stackable
- Self filling in flood use
- RAPIDLY-DEPLOYABLE
- Easily lifted & moved: 2 men, 4 hours installation or removal per truckload
- Transportation & Storage-Friendly – 416 Linear feet per 53’ Trailer
- Quick Release Device to eliminate lifting and permit rapid breakdown of assembled units
- DURABLE & COST-EFFECTIVE
- REUSABLE and Recyclable
- 20 Year Life guaranteed by the manufacturer and an expected life of probably 40 years
- Steel-Reinforced Recycled Polyethylene Plastic
WaterBlocks™ Applications
Containment Walls
For keeping flood water out
Diversionary Walls
For re-directing flood water as needed
WaterBlocks™ have been designed to provide a rapidly-deployable, watertight line of protection against rising flood water. During the past three years of WaterBlocks™ research and development, the product has been modified and enhanced several times to expand its uses and overall value.
The team at LLB is always striving to provide the very best product and marketable solution. We've already incorporated numerous design enhancements and improvements to expand the versatility, function and range of applications for WaterBlocks™. And while the main focus of WaterBlocks™ is and will continue to be to provide superior flood protection, our ingenious line of products may also be utilized for a wide range of other uses.
Today, Locking Line Barriers offers a multi-use product line with the versatility and features capable of providing unique solutions in multiple markets.
Construction & Drilling Site Safety
Insertable fence posts for additional height & security
Pools & Ponds
For protection & conservation of water and/or other natural resources
Islands of Safety
Strong, mobile protection from flood water & other threats
"TruckCrusher! Walls"
The standard width of a street in the USA is 29' curb to curb.
Double-stacked 4' wide x 8' tall x 28' long (21 barriers) = approximately 34,700 lbs. of protective stopping power!
In addition to fine-tuning a range of extended applications for WaterBlocks™, the Locking Line Barriers team has also designed, developed and filed for patent-protection for a new function of WaterBlocks™ as Truck Blockade Walls, we call it the TruckCrusher! configuration.
When double-stacked together, WaterBlocks™ can be configured to stop a rubber-tired vehicle in its tracks. For example, a direct hit from a semi-trailer truck with 20-tons worth of cargo will result in less than ~20-feet of wall movement with the wall of water-filled blocks collapsing around the vehicle and mitigating the force of any exploding shrapnel in the event of a weaponized vehicle terrorist attack.
Such applications make WaterBlocks™ particularly marketable to municipalities, public organizations and private companies executing large-scale events with large crowd attendance.
To barricade a standard 29' wide street, 21 WaterBlocks™ can be double-stacked to create a wall that's 28-feet long, 8-feet high and 4-feet wide.
When filled, each WaterBlock™ has an estimated impact resistance of 5,000 pounds, giving the double-stacked wall a combined estimated 100,000-pound impact resistance. There isn't a rubber-tired vehicle in existence able to penetrate a WaterBlocks™ TruckCrusher!
Locking Line Barriers is currently seeking grants from both the Homeland Security Department and the Department of Defense to fund a physical test of this new added feature.
WaterBlocks™ Asset Management & Barrier Sharing Network
Flooding is a unique disaster in terms of how quickly it strikes - with little notice for preparation. Thousands of Americans across the country have felt the devastating effects of floods and the pain they cause.
Communities under the threat of floods are begging to be better prepared with adequate barrier protection. With our rigorous background in industrial manufacturing, construction and logistical operations, we've gone ahead and envisioned an innovative, forward-thinking solution - the Barrier Sharing Network (think Uber like).
The Barrier Sharing Network is a system whereby WaterBlocks™ can be rapidly transported on short notice as a cost-effective response to pending flood threats - anywhere in the US. Because when it comes to mitigating flood damage and destruction, large quantities of barriers that can be delivered on short notice is key.
We anticipate that our primary stage objectives around the sale of WaterBlocks™ themselves will generate the revenue necessary to support our continued future growth.
The establishment of the Barrier Sharing Network offers WaterBlocks a sustainable, long-term (20+ years) source of revenue and ever-expanding rental and licensing opportunities.
The Barrier Sharing Network is an intangible asset consisting of the software platform (not yet built) - which may ultimately be patentable in its own right - and management thereof.
Since each WaterBlock™ is equipped with an RFID Chip for easy inventory tracking and every LLB Trailer is GPS-enabled, the Barrier Sharing Network presents a nationwide network of readily-available WaterBlocks™ inventory that can be rapidly-deployed to communities in need when flooding strikes.
Locking Line Barriers will seek to secure sponsorship from major corporations, governmental bodies, private foundations and non-profit organizations to underwrite the initial manufacturing and acquisition costs of large numbers of truckloads. This initial inventory base will provide thousands of linear feet of WaterBlocks™ Barriers that can be instantly assigned, transported and deployed to participating municipalities, counties and states in need of flood protection or any other WaterBlocks™ application.
WaterBlocks™ Sponsorship & Branding Opportunities
Knowing the importance of branding when it comes to securing major sponsorships, is why Locking Line Barriers has built-in a way for sponsor corporations, organizations and agencies to be recognized for their support of the Barrier Sharing Network.
LLB incentivizes sponsorship by offering sponsors the opportunity to brand WaterBlocks™ within the Barrier Sharing Network by permanently molding the brand's logo and messaging into the front-facing plastic wall of each unit they purchase or donate.
"For every $1 spent on Disaster Mitigation, $7 are saved in Disaster Recovery Costs."
- The Denver Post
The Market & Industry
To examine the current market viability of WaterBlocks™, Locking Line Barriers commissioned a detailed study looking at the market acceptance, need and overall demand for rapidly-deployable flood protection and multi-use barrier systems. Additional focus was spent on means of access including whether the assets are rented through a web-based asset and cost-sharing network rather than outright purchased per standard convention.
Since the WaterBlocks™ target market is the emergency authorities and responders of municipalities, government agencies and NGO’s, research consisted of a nationwide sampling of 36 randomly-selected jurisdictions.
Our research resulted in these key findings:
Market need & demand for flood barriers far exceeds the current availability of a sufficient supply
Until WaterBlocks™ are brought to market, the need & demand will remain unfulfilled for the foreseeable future
It would take more than 800 Truckloads of WaterBlocks™ (806 to be exact, with 63.5 miles of barriers) to fulfill the demand for flood barrier systems - and that's just for the 36 respondents surveyed.
At the currently-discounted MSRP cost of $130,000/truckload, LLB sales would be $104,780,000 for the 36 respondents polled so far.
Since the market will quickly absorb at least 100 truckloads of WaterBlocks™ in the pilot phase, our research indicates that every effort should be made to grow the inventory of the Barrier Sharing Network.
With our extensive background in construction, the market viability of the WaterBlocks™ product line in this industry is undeniable.
Regulations require every construction site have a safety and security fence bordering the location. Most are weakly-constructed out of chain-link fence, plywood and sometimes plastic, ultimately to be destroyed upon completion of the job. WaterBlocks™ may be used as a cost-effective alternative that can be assembled, removed and reused quickly and efficiently while providing an enhanced level of protection, safety and security.
In addition, drillers in the petroleum industry have also communicated a unique need for WaterBlocks™ as a means of water handling and storage. Since fracking uses water that must be transported in and out of the site on a daily basis, the WaterBlocks™ product line can reduce related costs while providing numerous other solutions to the process by enabling the mobile handling and storage of water virtually anywhere.
We believe the petroleum industry to be a major market for Locking Line Barriers.
Marketing & Sales Focus
We intend to formulate a worldwide licensing program that enables WaterBlocks™ - or a variant thereof - to be sold and distributed overseas.
In fact, we have already received licensing inquiries from Mexico and Holland, however our primary objectives at this time are product sales and the
establishment of the Barrier Sharing Network (BSN) in the United States.
LLB initial sales efforts are focused on six key target markets:
- Product Sales to government agencies and municipalities
- Product Sales to major corporations in the Construction and Petroleum industries
- Distributorship Development and Expansion domestically and globally
- Sponsorship sales to major Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) departments for BSN inventory expansion
- Crowdfunding Revenue Sharing Agreement Investments in BSN inventory expansion
- Revenue Sharing Agreement Investment Sales and Grants from Charitable 501c3 organizations for BSN inventory expansion based on the following:
We estimate that $1 trillion is held by the more than 80,000 non-profit organizations that fall under 501c3 status in the US. NOTE: this is our estimate of the potential participants from the global group as reported in the chart.
With this in mind, we have also established an agreement with the Disaster Support Foundation (DSF), a 501c3 non-profit who will seek grants and donations to acquire and provide WaterBlocks™ for the Barrier Sharing Network for a share of the revenue. This relationship provides potential charitable sponsors with the opportunity to leverage tax-deductible donations for positive social impact affecting countless communities nationwide.

Special Email Announcement
29 days agoOn March 19, 2019 we sent out a ‘Special Announcement’ our first email to all our StartEngine Shareholders of record as of March 15, 2019. Part of the purpose was to confirm each shareholders email address which occurred by simply opening the email.
Only about 50% of the addressees opened the email. Leaving us to believe we have a large number of incorrect email addresses.
Because all shares purchased are electronic certificates, it is imperative that we have a valid and correct email address to communicate with our shareholders, when needed or as maybe legally required.
Consequently, tonight we will repeat the email process and send it out again. Please, in the next few days, just open it so we can confirm we have your correct email address. And please check your junk mail folder and if there, unblock us so you receive email from us in the future.
If you do not receive the email PLEASE let us know via email to:
Thank you for your help and assistance.
Best Regards,

Announcing: Great News!
6 months agoOur thanks to our investors, followers and team members for all your patience and support, we have been hard at work the last three months on a number of projects which are finally coming to fruition as we continue to progress. We are finally in a position to share the news and begin providing public updates, as we have to be cautious with our updates to insure we are in compliance with SEC rules. Our most important news:
We are extremely excited to announce that in mid-July, the company was notified by the manufacturer that they had been approached to consider a new sealing device for the main joint between two barriers. This new technology was developed for the medical industry, to control operating room fluids during surgery. An evaluation was undertaken, and a new barrier seal engineered successfully. This new sealing device will reduce the overall barrier manufacturing cost by an estimated $25 per unit, which is significant. We will no longer be required to utilize a three-part; steel, vinyl and magnetic device, to seal the barrier joints. The engineering and design changes have been completed and final drawings will be sent to the mold makers so we can proceed to begin the manufacturing process.
And; we also want to reveal that since August 1, we have been preparing and have just completed our new SEC Reg D 506c $2m Preferred Equity Offering for Accredited Investors. We are in negotiations with a 30 year old stock brokerage firm to underwrite and conduct this Private Placement and will launch the offering November 12, as well. Watch for more updates as we progress.
