HOW A LOCK WORKS
Boats travel the Trent-Severn Waterway through several different types of locks. This lock is one of the 37 conventional locks on the system, which act as steps in a water staircase raising boats up 182 metres (597 ft.) from Lake Ontario to Balsam Lake, and then lowering them down 80 metres (263 ft.) to Georgian Bay. The basic operation of a conventional lock is very simple: boat waits. The lower lock gates have been opened to prepare for the lockage.
2 The boat enters the lock, and the lock
gates close forming a watertight chamber. The upper valves are opened, allowing water from the upper reach to flow by gravity into the lock. Our boat floats upwards and the lock fills. as the upper reach, the upper gates are opened, and our boat continues upstream. The lock is now ready to lower boats heading in the other direction.
Simple! No pumps are needed, it’s all done by valves and gravity. While the same basic principles apply at every conventional lock, operating mechanisms and lock designs can differ. Originally all the lockstations had gates and valves that were operated manually. Some remain this way but others have been updated and mechanized for operation at the push of a button. Lock staff will be glad to explain which type of system their lock uses.
