The Advantages of Steel Tornado Shelters Over Concrete
If you are deciding what type of shelter to install in your home, our team of experts at FamilySAFE strongly recommend installing a steel shelter. Read on to learn about the advantages of a steel shelter over concrete builds, and contact us today for your free estimate on a custom steel shelter!
Flexible Installation
Concrete shelters are typically used for outdoor shelters, as the heaviness of the build is not suitable for indoors. However, steel shelters can be installed either indoors or outdoors, providing you with more flexibility when deciding where is best for your shelter installation. Our steel tornado shelters are installed with ease by our experienced FamilySAFE team to ensure your shelter is set-up to keep your family safe!
Weather Resistant
Steel shelters are made of strong materials to withstand extreme weather. Concrete can soak up water during heavy rain and flooding, which can make it more brittle over time. Steel, on the other hand, is resistant to moisture, allowing it to last for years to come.
Maximized Protection
Steel is the highest quality material to provide you and your family with maximum protection. FamilySAFE Shelters are made of solid steel that won’t budge even during the most intense tornadoes, and have been proven to survive F4 and F5 tornadoes without collapsing or denting.
Long Lasting
Another advantage of steel tornado shelters is that they have an extensive lifespan. While concrete becomes brittle and can crack, steel is a very strong material that remains durable even after extreme weather. Here at FamilySAFE Shelters, we pride ourselves on our steel shelters that have survived nearly untouched during 14 of the worst tornadoes in history. Our shelters are built to last, so you’ll never have to worry about replacing your tornado shelter.
