I bought a below ground storm shelter best decision I ever made , let me explain a lot of people like to purchase above ground shelters this is the reason I didn't, let's talk tornados for a second there is no Guarantee your going to get a weak tornado if your starring down the barrel of god forbid an F5 listen and listen good ! anything above ground including any above ground shelters is going to leave the surface of this earth and go down range , I have been in the F4 that hit Dallas and I can tell you that My wife dogs & I were glad we had the below ground shelter also experienced the duratio that hit dallas both times we used our new shelter and while we did not take a direct hit we did sustain a lot of damage But what if it had been a F5 and what would that outcome have been I will tell you we would have climbed out when it was over and rebuilt you can always rebuild but you can't replace a loved one .
This company is flat out the best company to buy your shelter from , I did my homework and Im speaking from my heart .
I installed mine in my garage I park my jeep right on top of it and can still access shelter with no problem . So you can install whatever you want but for my money below ground is the way to go in closing I'd like to share what I saw in Joplin Mo. I stood in the middle of this town or should I say what wad left of it tuned 360 degrees it was flat swept pretty much all the homes down to the bare concrete foundation destroyed an entire hospital rendering it in/op I stood there and tears ran down my face I could not process what I was taking in the destruction was complete unbelievable people that were not able to get below ground were literally blown away and killed please please consider the below ground type .
