Construction
Our storm shelters are designed and constructed with your protection in mind. The two piece construction allows the top of storm shelter to interlocks with the bottom.. The 4,000 psi concrete is steel reinforced and with the application of the rubberized basement sealer on the bottom section this prevents water from entering the walls.

Stairs
The five steps going down into the storm shelter are made of galvanized steel and each step has a safety slip resistant strip applied and the steel handrail on the steps helps stabilize entry to the storm shelter.

Interior Options
A shelf can be mounted on the back wall and wood bench seating is also available. Carpet for the floor is also available at a reasonable price.

Installation
Excavating a ten-foot by eight foot, four foot in depth, hole is required. The dirt floor must be smooth and level and sand is recommended for the best results. Landscaping opportunities allow our customers to enhance the appearance of their storm shelter. Landscape timbers, railroad ties and stone are used in creative ways. If landscape is not performed the customer may need to purchase additional top soil.

Warranty
The manufacturer warrants there will be no leakage in the concrete structure for a period of 10 years from the date of installation. This includes the seal where the two (2) units are joined. The warranty does not include moisture that may appear from time to time in the form of condensation, commonly due to temperature variations, humidity, etc. Neither does the warranty include water that may enter the structure through the door or ventilator. Small cracks caused by expansion and/or contraction, which do not create a leakage, or structural problem are not covered by the warranty.
