Polysteel® wall forms go up quickly! The 16"x48" sections and pre-trimmed corners are set up as easy as children's building blocks. Your concrete footing or pad is permanently anchored to the Safe Room walls. You add reinforcing steel as the form walls go up.
 
 
Unique PanelDeck® concrete roof! Roof panels interlock to produce 8-inch concrete beams. Your reinforcing steel is added to tie the walls and roof together. Making a solid reinforced concrete structure. A complete "envelope" of safety.
 
 Over 30,000 lbs of concrete is placed in minutes! The forms are filled with conventional concrete and your Safe Room is ready to add your steel access door and final touches. Concrete roof can be water-proofed or a conventional roof can be added to match building styles.

 
High-efficiency Safe Room can be used all year long! Comparative R-47 walls and R-30 ceiling. Use common plumbing, electrical and ventilation equipment to finish your Safe Room.

Note: Local, state, or federal building and engineering codes or guidelines must be followed for the proper pad/footing specifications, anchoring, concrete wall and roof thickness, and placement of rebar in Polysteel safe rooms. Polysteel and its suppliers or representatives are not directly or indirectly responsible for proper compliance with such codes or engineering requirements during the construction phase. Polysteel and its suppliers or representatives make no direct claims as to the strength, durability and/or performance minimums of the monolithic concrete walls in a safe room.
