[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 1858158, member: 14646"] My sister in law and her husband just put ne in their new house last winter. Seems decent but the problem is see is that they park is Mustang GT over the top of it. IIRC, it is in the third bay of the three car garage. Seems impractical to me. His apparently has a hydraulic winchof sorts to open the door if debris were to fall on top of it. If it were me I would have built/installed an above ground storm shelter or safe room in the third bay of the garage. The items I would have built into the tornado shelter include. Minimum 8'x10" . Dedicated hose bib into shelter with 20' hose. Plumbing would come straight from mainline at street underground. Several fire extinguishers. Several days worth of food and water (approx 20 gallons). Several firearms and ammo. FAK for family. Blankets and pillows. Battery powered lanterns and flashlights. 1-2 scuba tanks filled with standard air. Tools would include; axe, sledge, small gas chainsaw, several sizes of pry bars, hammers, roll duct tape, and some other tools can't think of now. Also, communication equipment like hand crank radio, hand held CB radio. Some may think I'm crazy but it is what I'd have. [/QUOTE]
