Tornado & Hurricane Proof Safe Room

Lindsay ~ 5 February 2006

It may just look like a little room, but it’s a “StormCloset” from Remagen Corp. Designed to protect you and your family during a hurricane or tornado, the steel-panel shelter gets installed in your home. Footprints range from 88″ x 48″ to an 88″ square, which is roughly the size of a walk-in closet. The structure exceeds South Florida building-code requirements for stormproofing, which means it can withstand a large missile (i.e. a wind-driven 2×4). Options for the small safe room include fireproofing, cell phone and alarm hookups, battery-powered lights, and a stainless-steel door. Essentially, using the unit is like locking yourself in the security of a safe (and could be used in the event of a burglary as well).
