YOUR BEST 3 GAINS IN 1 INVESTMENT…

AS A STORM SHELTER

The primary purpose of these units is to protect their occupants from violent and severe weather conditions such as tornados and hurricanes.

AS A PANIC ROOM

If there is a dangerous incident occurring outside your home or a violent home invasion, you can easily access your shelter and lock yourself inside. In most cases, you will be able to call for help and wait while the police arrive. We have noticed that spouses that require frequent travel love this feature. Likewise, if your children are at home alone faced with a dangerous situation such as burglary, they can lock themselves inside the unit until the police arrive.

USED AS A SAFE VAULT

In addition, you can use your Torshel storm shelter as a safe vault to secure weapons, jewelry, or other important types of valuable household and business belongings. Our shelters come with a standard commercial keyed deadbolt. If needed, two or more deadbolts can be installed. Non-drillable and digital locks are also available. This is NOT a fireproof safe; our safe rooms come with air intakes to provide oxygen to the people inside. We suggest buying a small fireproof safe for all your documents, money, and other items and putting it inside the storm shelter.

WHY ARE OUR SHELTERS SO POPULAR?

Torshel storm shelters are made of structural heavy-duty steel and are one of the bests available in the United States. Our storm shelters are well constructed and properly anchored. Such units will withstand an EF5 tornado, according to engineers and professionals at Texas Tech University. They are the perfect solution for the elderly, people with disabilities, claustrophobics, and clients whose houses have post-tension cables in their concrete slabs. Recently, we exposed our shelters to rigorous testing to confirm their adherence to safety regulations and performance standards; please refer to our videos to see the remarkable results. All of our residential and commercial shelters surpass FEMA’s strict guidelines and exceed ICC 500 protocols. The client is given two options; they bring their own chairs inside the unit, or Torshel can install two removable wooden benches.

Our safe room shelters come with four-interior heavy-duty (5/8” x 5”) steel sliding locks. They are installed inside the frame, making it almost impossible to be accessed by intruders or debris. If you are building a new house, Torshel can install the safe room after the concrete is cured and before or while the framing goes up. The best location for the unit will be a hidden closet in your master bedroom, in the middle of the house, under the stairs, or in a closet in your garage. They must be on a concrete slab. Please refer to this document for specific details on how to install them. Torshel’s safe rooms come in various sizes, fitting anywhere from 3 to 32 people per unit, and are thoroughly powder-coated inside and out. Our most common stock residential sizes are 3’ x 7’, 4’ x 6’, and 4’ x 8’. If you need bigger units, please look into our commercial safe rooms. We can custom build any size with a maximum dimension of 8’ W x 20’ L. The standard high of our shelter is 6’.5”. Additional height is available up to 8’ for an additional fee.
