Pre-Fabricated Saferooms
Our steel safe room was successfully tested at the official FEMA Debris Impact Test Center, located at Texas Tech University to withstand an EF-5 rated tornado. In addition, it was evaluated and approved by McDonald-Mehta Engineering, LLP to structurally bear the wind load of a 250 mph tornado. McDonald-Mehta Engineering are the #1 wind engineering scientists in the world and have been selected by the National Weather Service to develop the new Enhanced Fujita (EF) Scale, which rates the tornado strength categories.
We are proud members of the National Storm Shelter Association (NSSA). Each of our safe rooms are issued a certificate of installation bearing its own unique serial number registered with the NSSA.
Our shelters can be placed inside, which will keep you from having to go outdoors to reach safety. The steel doors are 32" or 36" wide weighing 250 lbs to offer maximum protection. Our doors open inward to prevent entrapment. The removable air vent deflector covers keep out flying debris and are easily removed to allow quick access to the inside door latches. The three 1" steel door latches hold the door securely shut. Each of the three hinges has a removable pin for easy door removal.
Three-fourths inch Hilti/Redhead anchor bolts set 13" apart which greatly exceeds FEMA 320 recommended standards offering maximum protection. It takes approximately 11,000 lbs of wind pressure to shear each bolt off and about 14,000 lbs to pull straight out. Even a small 4' x 6' x 6' safe room has at least 12 anchor bolts holding it securely in place. These bolts can withstand 84 tons of upward force.
- The above ground steel "safe room" is handicap accessible and can be custom built to any size allowing it to be placed into the framework of new construction or set onto any pre-existing concrete pad.
- For your safety the door swings inward, eliminating entrapment from debris.
- Each of the three hinges support over 4000 lbs and has a removable pin for easy door removal.
- Three 1" solid steel door latches are the strongest in the industry. Each one will withstand 20 tons of pressure.
