Frequently Asked Questions

Here you can find the questions we get asked the most about the shelters we offer. If you have a question that isn't answered below, please feel free to contact us, we'll be happy to help!

Concrete In-Ground Shelters

Will these
shelters
float?

In the 800+ we've installed, we have never had a shelter float! We are sure to install these outside of flood zones, and if there is a high water table, we can raise the shelter installation. For areas with high water concerns, we offer above ground steel shelters.

Can you relocate one of these?

Unfortunately, we cannot move one of these shelters once they have been installed. The eopxy we use to seal the two halves is impossible to break! We usually recommend crushing in the old unit and purchasing a new one.

How much do they cost?

Prices are location based. We service an area up to 200 miles from our location so the price is different for everyone. With the added optional upgrades, we cannot give a blanket cost, but instead give individual quotes based on your shelter needs.

Can we store items
in the shelter?

Depending on your location, the shelter may condensate some on the inside, so if you choose to store anything in them, we recommend that you put them in waterproof containers. You can also choose to add a dehumidifier to your shelter should this be a concern of yours.

Are they safe from radiation or bombs?

These shelters are not designed to protect you from radiation, nor are they a bomb shelter.

Can we add electricity?

You may add electricity through the top vent, but drilling into the shelter will void your warranty. We've had several customers successfully add electricty to thei shelter.
