Installation Guidelines

The Beckson Self Drain™ Opening Port is ideal for installations where the mounting angle is within 15° of vertical. The internal drainage ramp design negates the need for angled hull cuts, streamlining the installation process. For installations requiring greater angles, Beckson Rain Drain™ Ports are recommended.

Thru-bolting is made possible by the spigot design, allowing for secure attachment without the complications of spigots extending below bolt holes, which is a common issue with traditional window installations.

Why Choose Beckson Self Drain™?

Unlike traditional ports that rely on external water retention ledges, the Self Drain™ Opening Port features an internal angle that tightly seals against the gasket and lens. This innovation ensures there is no water-fall when opening the port after rain, providing a clean and hassle-free experience.
