### Extreme

Constructed of quarter-inch steel, these above-ground storm shelters are, quite literally, bulletproof: with an NIJ Level 2A ballistics rating.

The Extreme above-ground storm shelters come in six different sizes and come with our unique escape hatch that requires no tools to operate.

### Panelized

When you need a tornado shelter rated to provide the highest degree of protection against F5 tornadoes and EF5 tornadoes, but you require something that can be assembled within an interior building, you need the Survive-A-Storm Shelters Panelized above-ground tornado shelter.

Our panelized shelters have been used in apartment complexes, condominiums, and office buildings.
