Product Overview
The Above-Ground Interior Safe Room is a compact, steel-constructed shelter designed for installation inside the home on an existing concrete slab. This model provides accessible storm protection without the need for excavation, making it well suited for homes where below-ground installation is not practical.Constructed with reinforced steel framing and integrated structural bracing, this safe room is designed to provide dependable protection during severe weather events. A wide inward-swing steel door allows interior access and is designed to remain operable even if debris accumulates outside the shelter.
The shelter installs directly onto a cured concrete slab using a manufacturer-approved two-part epoxy anchoring system. A factory-installed base plate with pre-drilled anchor locations supports accurate placement and long-term stability. The interior is finished with a bright white enamel coating to enhance visibility and simplify maintenance.
This model is suitable for residential homes, interior utility spaces, and retrofit applications where above-ground installation and interior accessibility are preferred.

Product Overview
The SSUG5805 Underground Garage / Carport Storm Shelter is SteelSafe’s largest under-slab residential shelter, engineered for homeowners who require maximum interior space while maintaining a completely concealed installation beneath a garage or carport floor. This model is ideal for larger households or properties seeking expanded capacity without sacrificing usable garage space.Installed directly beneath an existing or new concrete slab, the SSUG5805 allows fast access to protection without the need to move vehicles in most configurations.

All welds are dye-tested inside and out, and the exterior is protected with a hand-applied, two-part epoxy and tar coating to guard against moisture intrusion and corrosion. Factory-installed steel angle stiffeners reinforce the structure during concrete backfill, while the shelter is positioned slightly above slab level to help divert surface water away from the lid area.
This model is suitable for both new construction and retrofit installations and includes factory-approved guidance to assist contractors and homeowners throughout the installation process.
