There are a few, inexpensive things, that make a world or difference in the bunker. - A couple of strings of battery operated led fairy lights, outlining the ceiling, provide light and cheap ambiance. ($3 ea on Temu) bonus is that have remotes to turn them on. Having light helps getting the dogs down there (they don’t want to go into the shelter and you usually have to carry them down. - Tornados are NOISY and quite frightening to kids of all ages. $30 on Amazon will buy you a carton of acoustic foam. Glue a strip of foam on the walls to help eliminate echo and decrease the storm noise. - a camping battery operated fan ($20 at Walmart) gives you air flow - Hanging a shower curtain off the stairs provides privacy for a toilet area. Skip the dreadful bucket toilets. Instead get a seniors folding bedside commode, easier to clean and way more comfortable. They are not expensive. - folding camping chairs ($8 ea at Walmart) - quasi luxury item: interlocking rubber gym flooring tiles run $50/carton at Walmart. Makes floor more comfortable and also helps with noise. - small battery operated blue tooth speaker for music - obviously bottled water, granola bars etc.

Lady from Chouteau I got my storm shelter in 2008 from a business in Salina which the Salina bank told me about. No leaks and 5 years ago I had inola portable buildings build a covered area over it (not metal car port). I then placed a pavers under it. This year I put L shape walls on it. And within a month an outdoor kitchen. Shelter is 15 feet from house and now this old woman won’t slip down wet steps and won’t get wet getting to it. Got walls supply from kla-mart. I shop local if I can too. So, glad you guys got yours in time. Granddaughter and family are now getting shelter after the family had to take shelter in their hallway in Salina. My shelter/labor etc cost me 2,500 in 2008

So glad you and your family have somewhere safe now.

as someone who is claustrophobic, that looks mighty small. there is no price you can put on you or your family's safety. trusting that the Lord keeps you all safe in these unusual times.

Years ago someone told me people should always build the safe house for tornados above ground up on higher ground and then take a tractor push dirt over and around it and cover it so it will protect those within and if it floods they won't drown

So happy you & your family will be safe. For those without basements, this vault could be their life saver.❤❤❤❤❤

This installation was pretty cool. Thank the Lord they installed when they did, too. Prayers for all affected.

Glad you have a shelter. Not much of a fan of the guy putting on the sealant, and tossing the empty tubes in the hole. Dispose of trash properly installers.

Never understood why YouTubers think voice overs are bad. I like them. This was fun. 👍😎

Those shelters should be Mandatory for all New home Construction and Funding for Existing homes should be made Available. Why does it take someone who's never been in a Tornado prone area to think of these things.

There was a report that came out saying all new home builds in tornado alley could have a bunker installed in the home (basically a tornado safe room) for under $5,000 but they wouldn't put it in the building codes as a requirement because they didn't want to increase home prices. The cost to do it after the build almost doubled the price. Is it just me or does that seem shortsighted. Of all the "required" things you have to do this is a pretty minor cost for lifesaving return. Thoughts?

I'm glad you and your family are finally getting your storm shelter fitted, Dutch. You will all feel and be a lot safer from those storms and tornadoes.❤❤

In the 60s we had a huge cellar. It had 2 sets of bunk beds, 2 couches and chairs. We kept drinks down there cause they stayed pretty cool down there.

The men who installed that should be really proud of the work they do saving lives. I'm glad you got one. Now you need to train Smegle to go into it. You could train him with Temptation cat snacks. Cats really love that stuff. Once they figure it out if you shake the bag they will come running.

I’m so glad that you had that bunker when that tornado went through. Praise God for miracles.

Peacock doing his job right up front! No waterproofing under the unit? Not on my time! Concrete, no matter what they tell you, is not water proof! Trash should not be in the hole. Caulk tubes attract termites.

I LIKE THE WAY YOU TOLD THE PRICE. GOOD JOB.

WOW this is awesome. One suggestion though is to keep it cleaned out free of bugs. That way when you need to use it you can go right in instead of rushing to clean it out. So happy to know your protected. Love y'all

Very happy for all of you, having a bunker on your property to keep safe.
