Tornado Shelter Door Comparison
It is vital to take into consideration the design of your storm shelter door prior to purchase. Is the design is as secure as possible with a proper locking system? Is it easy to open the door to get in and out of the unit? Does the manufacturer offer a service warranty on the door? Is it able to be taken off by emergency responders if required? Does it comply with the best FEMA standards for protection? Is the door at risk to rust, mold or break down in any way? Can the door be replaced if damaged?
The door to a tornado shelter is the most crucial element securing you from harm. There are numerous shelter doors readily available made by firms with a differing level of design and manufacturing experience. This is the exact reason it is so important that a manufacturer’s door has gone through the proper FEMA testing.
Some manufacturers outsource vital shelter components without direct oversight. This can commonly result in crucial parts being created by inexperienced workers. Some manufacturers supply lesser quality products and materials that are of poor design. These systems sometimes have unstable construction, tooling or manufacturing. Any tornado shelter consumer has the right to know where and how their shelter is being made.

In an ongoing commitment to improving the level of protection and durability of its storm shelter door, Granger Plastics Company has designed 3 doors since the conception of the unit. All of the designs went through and beyond extensive screening requirements at Texas Tech. Wind Science & Engineering Lab. The current door of the Granger ISS surpassed both FEMA 320 and FEMA361 tests with a single door! Can any other shelter supplier state that level of success?
Research and asking questions is the most effective means to be assured you are selecting the most reliable protection for your family. There are several things to consider specifically about your shelter door. Could the door be damaged or even weakened over time making the shelter unsafe to be in during a weather emergency? Precisely how will water, temperature level and UV affect the material of the door? Can the door be depended on to be easy to access quickly and easily in any condition?
Equally as vital as the material comprising the shelter body are the materials making up the tornado shelter door. Most materials naturally weaken and break down over time creating concerns as a result of possible deterioration. Some doors at first adhere to or exceed FEMA impact testing, but it is not known precisely how the doors will hold up after they begin to degrade in the field. Some doors are heavy and hard to open in an emergency leaving family members asking themselves if they will be able to get in. Poor construction also brings about threats such as improper shock positioning, jamming systems or mediocre locking devices. Don't subject your family to these on-going concerns!
