Matt, I love your shelter. Could you put all the information about how you made this in the description? The fact that you hand dug a hole starting on the outside of the trailer that was big enough to fit the culvert into and slide it over under the trailer is really impressive! Like some other people who've commented, I'm also concerned about you being sucked out if the trailer is blown away. Why don't you invite a storm expert from your county to look at your shelter & see what he says?
Ok well since its really underground, and i love the idea, could you please send me a private message with instructions on how you built it and everything?
I am a weather Forecaster. I honestly can say I would NOT trust this due to the fact that mobile homes are so weak and are significantly damaged in an EF-1 Tornado.
This is nice. The tornadoes we had last week in Alabama were very scarey. Many people have shelters (pits) here and some small communities and mobile home parks have shelters. But one person was in their basement and got 'sucked' out. I don't know any details about that but it was in the newspaper. Tornadoes are mean.
We need a storm shelter. Since I'm on a budget I was thinking of a way that I could pull it off and stay cost effective. What do you think about taking a large junk van, weld up several car hoods on the side and where the glass goes, knock off the wheels to get it ground level and attaching some sort of steel door to the side to enter it and brace the roof. Now I'd pile on about 4 feet of dirt on the sides and over the top, so it would look like a large mound with a door. Think it would work?
@thehilitereel To be extra sure I'd anchor it to the ground with ground anchors going about 5 ft deep and concreting it, then attach it to the body of the van before I covered the van with dirt.
@thehilitereel Also, you want to be able to get to it directly from your house without much time or effort needed. I'm thinking of building a A style concrete shelter using lots of ReeBar and concrete. Start by digging out a trench and driving steel down as far as possible, then concrete the trench in and tie more steel to that and come up with concrete about 1 foot thick. Make a small entrance with maybe a slide to slide down into it and it would not go anywhere and be easy to get into.
@thehilitereel Sounds like a good idea to me, I even considered using an old schoolbus for a shelter but figured I didn't need anything that large. Placing it above ground like you said is smart because I'm thinking of building one above ground now out of concrete because of the water problem. We've been getting so much rain lately I want something above ground. I've read that setic tanks work good too and are fairly cheap and as long as you place dirt around it like a mound it would be ok.
@Tarron3 Anywhere but a mobile home. Lay in a ditch or something but build you some sort of storm shelter. I'm actually thinking of building a concrete one above ground using tons of cement and steel.
Great idea! I allways thought trailers should have trap doors in the floor. Thats a lot of unused storage space under there or in your case, survival space.
@vfIskullangel I'm fixing to design one above ground and it will be easier and faster to get into it because not much warning with a tornado if they hit in the middle of the night especially.
@rmls34 I can't remember exactly but the pipe was somewhere around $200-300, sump pump and pipe like $150, concrete probably $100-150, Lots of sweat $0.00 so I'd estimate it to have been around $600 back in 2005.
ok but here in missori our tornadoes move trailers does it go into the ground or just down to the ground level.we dont own the lot where our trailer sits you got any ideals on what we could do for a shelter we are thinking about moving or buying a lot where we could put in a school bus shelter with city water and electric
This goes down below the ground. It's 6 feet deep and I have a ton of concrete around the top part where it goes up against the trailer reinforced with steel. I used a piece of galvanized 4 foot diameter culvert pipe. I've also heard of people using those concrete septic tanks as storm shelters. I've also thought about using an old school bus to bury because you can have so much space for a little money if you needed it for lot of people. Keeping water out is the main problem.
u should make it bigger and add a couch a xbox some games a flat screen tv some soft run get good walls and add sterio and some psps a computer hell everything
He should improve on it by adding a bed sleeping bag food water for three days and some type of emengecy air horn to pull to let others to help get him out
I'd be checking under that carpet every night before I got in that bed if I was him. All it takes is one friend with a sense of humor to just take the wood out and roll the carpet back over the hole.
Oh I can get out. Worse case scenario would be if it took the trailer frame and all because then I would just essentially be crawling out of a bare hole in the ground with nothing left above.
I gave that consideration but thing is it has to rain for a long time to fill up with 3 feet of water. It pumps it out quickly so odds are if I ever need to get in it water won't be there.
I think he ment more after, in case the country turns to shit and its everyman for himself, thats how i look at almost everyday, just incase. Plus who knows with obama pres!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
cool u should put some food , a bed, a tv, a gun rack, a pool, a couch, and maybe a laptop down there!! dont you ever get scared`that your sleeping next to a dark, deep,and scary hole ? I mean have you ever heard sounds comeing from it, like screams , creepy cries or something like thay?
Money wise I wasn't out but probably around $400-500 but labor is another story. I worked my ass off digging the hole and pouring concrete around it. If I had to do it over I would just build a concrete room out the back of my closet big enough for 3 or 4 people.
Looks good, however there doesn't seem to be a strong roof covering the shelter. If this is the case, you might want to cover it with something in case a tornado comes and takes the home away from over it. A person can only hold on so much before being ripped from what they are holding on to. However, I must say that does seem to be a low cost design which is what many people are looking for. A low cost design to keep them safe.
I actually planned that into the design when constructing it by placing 4 anchors around the pipe to anchor angle iron to and I even started bolting it on to build a door that would fold up when you get inside. That way you don't have to worry about the door getting stuck. After thinking about it though and how they say to lay in a ditch if a tornado hits I thought getting under ground would be good enough. I actually don't think a tornado can suck me out of it. Tornado is more whirling wind.
My biggest fear is being sucked out of my basement. My rooms in the downstairs, so im not afraid of tornadoes, only being sucked out. Do you have anything to grab ahold of in your shelter?
I've got some bars to hold on to if necessary. Usually a tornado won't actually suck as much as circulate the wind in a way that is actually picking you up by continually gradually blowing you sideways moving you up in the funnel
LMFAO i love the hostage comment! But this guy is intelligent, good call...those hurricanes in Texas and Louisiana leveled countless trailers...and the occupants would almost certainly die.
Tornado's don't so much suck upward. What kills you is the debris flying sideways. That is why they tell you to lay in a ditch. I do have anchors mounted to mount a door inside the shelter but after thinking about it decided just getting down in the hole and hunkering down is enough hopefully even if I get a direct hit I think I'd survive.
Hope its all anchored down, or you will be sitting in a hole with some galvanized metal around you. Good luck and Hopefully you wont have to spend much time down there.
I hope u dont have a tornado pop up when u have any of your fat friends over, because they will be fucked tring to get there assess through that little fucking square.
LMAO, that would be bad. What would be really bad would be for a fatty to try and get in first and plug the door to where no one could get in there and everyone would die a horrible death as we all cursed the fatty.
Don't sweat Zippo - He's obviously got something against country folks... Your solution seems sound. I've lost family to Storms, sad & tragic deaths - Uncle was an olympic medalist (skeet) and entire family was killed in east Texas in the 70's.
Hell, a tornado don't increase the shitty 360's chance of failure. That damn thing is just hanging by a string to function properly every time you power up. :(
you live in a trailer home? but your house is so big in the other vids! well either you have both a house and a traler home or you trailer home that is really big! awsome!
Great work. I live in England and we really don't need things like this because our tornadoes are not very strong but i can understand why you need this is the USA!
How long did it take to build? 3-4 feet with a pick must of taken a while!
Thanks. I think it took me about a week of digging because not only did I have to did the hole for the pipe but I had to did all the way out from under the mobile home to have room to put the pipe in and stand it up. It was a whole lot of work but costed me less than $500 which was well worth it.
Oh, almost forgot to ask....how far down does it go? Is the depth of this in feet BELOW ground level, or below floor level (I'm not sure of the height of your mobile home)
Thanks for the interest. I have about 5 feet of it underground. Then, another foot up I have reinforced steel bar and couple of tons of concrete poured around it. Then the other foot goes up to the bottom of my trailer floor which I put a plastic mesh and sprayed expandable touchnfoam around to seal the bugs out. I feel really safe when I get down in there and I'd imagine at least 6 could squeeze in there if they had to save their asses.
Good idea Matt. My wife I lost our first home with high winds. Today I have a concrete underground shelter. Peace of mind.........
