#1 Valley Storm Shelters
With seven different residential products to choose from, Valley Storm Shelters offers one of the most comprehensive selections of storm shelters. Each shelter is designed to withstand 300 mph ground speed winds, which is what you might expect in the strongest tornadoes ever experienced. Built with ¼” steel plate and anchored to a concrete foundation using 24-inch carbon steel anchors and industrial anchoring adhesive, Valley Storm Shelters can be installed as stand-alone structures or added...
#2 FamilySAFE
FamilySAFE’s Above-Ground MAX Shelter is comparatively spacious and well-ventilated. Designed to reduce feelings of claustrophobia, this storm shelter is taller than some of the other options available. The standard model is made with 3⁄16″-thick steel, so it is not quite as strong as Valley Storm Shelters, but a thicker ¼” steel structure is available if you opt to customize it. The door hinges are attached on the inside to protect them against damage from flying debris, and wider doors are...

With an American Tornado Shelter Association(ATSA) seal of approval, Atlas Safe Rooms exceed FEMA’s standards and can be installed almost anywhere. The modular design makes it simple to construct because its built-in panel sections can be easily installed in an existing structure or outside. Another benefit of the modular design is that, should you move house, you can disassemble your storm shelter and take it with you. The removable panels also give you an emergency exit should the door beco...
Building Permits and Legislation
Regardless of how desperate you might be for some solid storm protection, you still need to play by the rules. In some states, that means applying for a building permit before constructing an outdoor, above-ground storm shelter. Of course, this won’t apply to safe rooms or shelters constructed inside and may make that option more viable. Read: Natural disasters state ranking
Accessibility
Above-ground storm shelters are much easier and quicker to access than underground storm shelters, which is part of their appeal. Having flat ground to the shelter will make access even easier if you’ve got young children or more mature family members. Maybe you’ve got wheelchair users you need to consider, so a customized MAX Shelter from FamilySAFE is probably your more affordable and convenient option.
Location
Access to interior storm shelters can quickly become blocked as the usual paraphernalia of life builds up. Whether in your garage or basement, you need to keep access clear; otherwise, there’s no point in having the shelter in the first place. If you’ve opted for an external tornado shelter, it must be no further than 150′ from your home. You also need to consider the potential dangers of power lines, neighboring structures, and large trees that could, in a severe storm, block access to and f...
