Saferooms and Storm Shelters
It is recommended to seek shelter in a basement or enclosed space during a tornado, but unfortunately, most homes in this region do not have basements. This is due to the soil and water table conditions, as well as the potential for basements to flood during storms. The importance of having a safe room or storm shelter cannot be stressed enough. FamilySAFE Shelters DFW invites you to explore your options.
Above -Ground Fortified Protection
These shelters are built to resist both inward- and outward-acting pressure on building surfaces, known as uplift. This is crucial in protecting those inside from debris and potential collapse of the structure due to the intense wind speeds generated by tornadoes.
Convenient Access of an In-Home Shelter
Unlike underground shelters, safe rooms can be installed inside the home, making it easier for families to access during a severe weather event. This also eliminates the need to go outside and potentially put yourself at risk in order to reach a separate shelter.
