About Our Shelters
Our storm shelters provide safety and peace of mind during severe weather events. At E.L. Ironworks, we build each storm shelter to the current ICC 500 Standards that FEMA recommends. ICC 500, known as the ICC/NSSA Standard for the Design and Construction of Storm Shelters, is a comprehensive set of construction standards and guidelines jointly developed by the International Code Council (ICC) and the National Storm Shelter Association (NSSA). Each shelter is built according to professionally engineered stamped drawings, keeping the safety of your family in mind.
Why Our Shelters are Safe:
- Solid Steel Construction: Both our above-ground and below-ground shelters are made from solid steel, ensuring maximum durability and strength.
- Rigorous Testing: Each shelter model goes through the same rigorous testing process, guaranteeing that it meets the highest standards of protection.
- Weather Resistant: Designed to withstand severe weather conditions, including tornadoes and extreme winds, our provide ultimate safety during storms.
- ICC 500 Compliant: Our shelters are fully compliant with ICC 500 standars, as recommended by FEMA, ensuring they meet all necessary safety standards.
Whether you choose an above-ground or below-ground model, E. L. Ironworks ensures that you and your loved ones remain safe during the most dangerous weather events.
At E.L. Ironworks, we specialize in crafting storm shelters that prioritize your family's safety and peace of mind. Our below-ground shelters are built in strict accordance with FEMA’s comprehensive construction standards and guidelines, ensuring they can withstand even the most severe weather conditions. Each unit is supported by professionally engineered, stamped drawings, reflecting our commitment to quality, durability, and compliance.
In addition to traditional below-ground shelters, we offer a variety of options to suit different home layouts and preferences. Our above-ground safe rooms, mounted inside the garage, provide quick and secure access during emergencies. We also install in-ground garage shelters, which are embedded directly into the garage floor for a seamless and space-efficient solution. For homeowners seeking exterior options, our exterior in-ground shelters are placed outside the home, offering robust protection while maintaining accessibility. No matter the configuration, EL Ironworks delivers storm shelters designed to keep your loved ones safe when it matters most.
