I know all will agree, our weather has become so unpredictable that there is a desperate need for these, for our places of work, or for any facility which we have to visit, or take our loved ones.  Who of us wouldn’t feel better about going to such a place that takes this into consideration.

We custom build each one, so we can build most any size and style with multiple entrances for quick access. The above ground Safe Shed would be an excellent choice.  When dealing with the public you may have to consider is the shelter safe and also how accessible is it.  This above ground is easily accessible and safe.  Because it goes above ground we've built it very strong.  It also been tested to be sure.  We took it to Texas Tech Wind Science Research Center and had our Safe Room tested in a smaller one, but when we build it larger, we beef it up even more, but use the same technique as the one tested.  We also add more of the 4 inch channel to protect you from falling debris.  It was tested for 250 mph wind force. This would be an excellent choice for such as Nursing Homes, Medical Facilities, Day Care Centers,  Schools, etc.   This could even be built right at the back of your present building on a concrete slab, then siding added to match your building.  Once the siding is on the Safe Shed it looks very nice and the siding could be incorporated into the rest of the building, and you'd never know the steel structure was underneath it.  You could also use it for storage and safe keeping of any valuables.    

In considering the size of the shelter you would need, FEMA offers a standard of Criteria, for your consideration of this.  They say about:

  •  5 sq ft per person - adults standing

  •  6 sq ft per person seated

  • 10 sq ft per person wheelchair users

  • 30 sq ft per bedridden persons

So if you have, for example, a 6 X 24 it would accommodate  about 24 people sitting, about 14 wheel chairs, or you could figure an estimated average of a combination of both.   This is adults, and only a standard.  Usually more can fit, when a situation of need arises.   

Please go to our Contact Page and click on the model you feel would be best suited for your needs and see how each is built, and what basic features go with each, such as, fully carpeted, bench seats (benches offered on underground models only) etc. Just for a quick estimate, the cost usually runs about $100.00 per sq ft on these shelters, plus whatever extras, such as an extra entrance way would be added to this. We can also add bunk beds in each end for those who might need it, or should you need to spend the night.
