lock staircase

Schleusentreppe Caen Hill Flight bei Devizes, UK

A lock slider is understood to mean a ship's sluice, in which a plurality of sluice chambers follow each other directly or with a switched-on interposition for overcoming a greater lifting height. This technique can be found mainly in older locks, as a ship lift would be built for such requirements today. In the past, double and triple sluices were erected, and from about 4 sluice chambers one speaks of a sluice. Known locks Edit source text
