TORNADO DOORS

According to current statistics, around 1,000 tornadoes pass through the U.S. every year. When installed into a properly constructed tornado shelter, SECURALL Tornado Doors provide protection from the storm and the peace of mind you deserve knowing your family or employees are safe. SECURALL offers three models of tornado safe room doors to suit any application, from residential to community tornado shelters.

All SECURALL Tornado Doors are built of maximum duty, 12 gauge galvannealed steel. Internal vertical steel stiffeners and 7 gauge lock and hinge reinforcements make SECURALL doors exceptionally rugged and proven to withstand 250 mph wind gusts. Optional 3-Hour Fire Rating is available for all three models.

Securall Tornado Doors are constructed in accordance with the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) guidelines and the International Code Council's (ICC-500) standard for tornado shelter doors. This design is based on extensive research on the cause and effects of windstorm damage to buildings. When combined with a shelter that also adheres to FEMA guidelines and ICC standards, a Tornado Door will provide a high degree of occupant protection during extreme windstorms (tornados and hurricanes).

Testing on Tornado Doors was performed at Texas Tech University's Wind Science and Engineering Research Center. Texas Tech is the foremost authority in wind research and co-authored FEMA's "Taking Shelter from the Storm", a publication outlining design specifications for safe rooms. All three Tornado Safe Doors models successfully passed and exceeded the minimum requirements.
