We’ve Been Protecting Families & Businesses For Over 9 Years
Buying a storm shelter is an important decision. Torshel is committed to helping you choose the best type of shelter for both your home and budget. Both underground shelters and safe rooms offer maximum protection for storms. We encourage our clients to compare the quality of our shelters, methods of installation, and the reputation of the companies. There have been a few cases where other companies have poorly installed in-ground shelters that slip out of the ground. As a result, people can be terribly injured, and in some cases, death may occur. Some companies put profit over the lives of those who will use their products.
At Torshel we work to make sure that we save and help protect as many lives as possible. We only install the highest quality storm shelters available in the market and stand behind our work by offering a 10-year warranty. We make ourselves available before and after the shelter’s installation.

Torshel Storm Shelters
Commercial Storm Shelters
The most valuable asset of any company is not its facilities, machines or products. It’s their team of employees, executives, and clients. Torshel can help protect them while at work with a commercial multipurpose storm shelter, panic room, and safe vault in the event of a tornado, hurricane, robberies, shootings, and other types of incidents that may put in danger their safety. You, your staff, and clients will have a peace of mind by having a steel safe room ready for any threating occasion.
Storm Shelter in your Garage
Torshel storm shelters are made of structural heavy-duty steel and are one of the bests available in the United States. Our storm shelters are well constructed and properly anchored. Such units will withstand an EF5 tornado according to engineers and professionals at Texas Tech University. They are the perfect solution for the elderly, people with disabilities, claustrophobia, and clients who want an easy to reach safe room in their garage.
Inground Tornado Shelters
For clients that live in mobile homes, or do not have a garage, we offer underground outdoor shelters.
These underground units reflect Torshel’s latest technology. They come with a 13” x 13” bullet-resistant window made of 1.5” polycarbonate. The window allows natural light to flow inside the shelter. You won’t feel entrapped. Torshel’s Newest and High Technology Feature!
4-6 cubic yards of 3,000 PSI concrete will keep the unit inside the ground and prevent it from floating.

Which is safer, an in-ground or above-ground tornado shelter?
Torshel’s shelters are both designed to be equally safe, and both units withstand the powerful winds of EF-5 tornadoes. The choice of the shelter’s type depends on several factors: the location of the shelter, personal preferences.
However; 70% of our sales are above ground units. They are easier to install and have proven to withstand an EF5 tornado.
How do you determine the number of people your storm shelter will fit?
Torshel adheres to the requirement established by FEMA 320 and ICC 500, which call for 3 sq. ft. (square feet)/person of floor area per occupant for residential units, 5 sq. ft. (square feet)/person for commercial, and 10 sq. ft. per/person for a wheelchair-bound occupant.
Are your units FEMA 320 and/or FEMA 361 compliant?
Torshel’s shelters are engineered and tested to meet the highest quality standards at a competitive price. All of our residential storm shelters are FEMA 320 compliant, and all of our commercial shelters are FEMA 361 compliant. They also exceed ICC 500 protocols.
Will your units stand-up to an EF-5 tornado?
Yes. Torshel’s products are designed to withstand the strongest tornadoes. Our shelters are not intended to be used for protection against fire, floods, or storm surges. Our units have been designed to protect against flying debris, wind uplift, and crushing forces that extreme weather can cause.
I want to install it myself; do you deliver your storm shelters?
Yes, we can. You will need some background and understanding of construction skills and equipment to install the unit. We can provide you with an instruction manual and video tutorial. A shipping fee will be applied to a sales order. We can ship any unit to anywhere in the US as long as the delivery site is accessible for a truck. Visit our video galleries on our website to learn about the installation process.
Client Testimonials
I am a retired Structural Engineer that worked for the Government. I live a North Alabama which is under multiple Tornado Threats each year. I live in Huntsville and have seen (first hand) the massive destruction that Tornadoes can do. I worked very closely with the Professors at the Wind Engineering School at Texas Tech University during my career and understand how buildings react to severe weather. Torshel shelters are one of the best, if not the best, shelters on the market today. When you compare shelters, look at the plate thickness of the walls, roof and door. Look at the spacing of the vertical supports and their size. Look at the welds on all members (number of welds as well as size and spacing). Look at the locking mechanisms on the door. How many sliding bolt locks and how large are they? Very important to look at the anchorage system. Look at size of anchors and also distance between anchors. Ask the installer about the torque required per anchor. Torshel excels is all of these areas. If you live by a Lowe’s or Home depot visit their displays if the have one. Torshel shelters are so superior it’s not even funny. It’s one thing to meet FEMA’s minimum requirements, Torshel goes way above and beyond and is truly an outstanding shelter. I purchased a Torshel shelter after our first Grandchild was born 3 years ago and have full confidence that the shelter could protect she and my entire family even in the event of and EF5. Very competitive on price and well. Highly recommend.
Working with Israel and his crew was effortless. Every person I spoke with was professional and very easy to talk with. The installation crew was very professional, cleaned as they worked, and explained the process as they went. The shelter is just as described and has most certainly given me the peace of mind when the spring tornado season arrives.
Could not be more satisfied with the information and guidance by Rob before the sale, the ease of the actual sale with Rob, and the installation of our indoor 4×6 modular Torshel safe room/shelter by the Torshel technicians. This shelter was bolted onto the foundation in our small spare bedroom. It was installed within about 5 hours and there was zero mess for me to clean up. Super friendly and hard working technicians. I wish I would have gotten their names. There are so many options for shelters that I didn’t know about until I called River Region Storm Shelters in my home town and talked with Rob. I then researched the Torshel Storm Shelters website. I now have peace of mind inside my own home to shelter me and my family from wind/tornados. THANK YOU RRSS AND TORSHEL!!!
