I want to try to make some flood gates for our doors and they are very

plywood to create a tight fit as needed.

I have never seen anything like that, apart from rawlbolts which are
not designed for wood so far as I know. Does anyone know of such a
thing, or have a better suggestion? Many thanks.

THey seem to require the door frame to be removed, though, as they fix
from the other side.
