[QUOTE="streak, post: 3979888, member: 11744"] The in ground garage ones make me super claustrophobic. The above ground metal ones are supposed to be good, if you don’t make them into storage. We have an oversized back yard in ground one 3 steps out the back door that I like for our older, crawl space house. If I were to build a house today I would steal an idea from a lady we put cabinets in her house years ago. She was in an electric wheel chair so stairs weren’t an option and that thing takes a ton of room to maneuver. What they did was built an oversized walk in pantry right off their kitchen, that was also a concrete/steel safe room with a heavy steel door with bolts and heavy pins. It seemed like the best setup I ever saw. You were locked in with your food and water if you had to shelter. I think they also added on a kinda decorative door so they could close off their pantry without having to fight the steel door [/QUOTE]
