December 19, 2008: Vault door arrives for tornado shelter

  We are building a tornado shelter at the new house on the farm.  The vault door arrived about three weeks ago, but they are just now getting it up there.  This thing weighs 1200 pounds.  It will go on the FEMA blueprint tornado shelter.  The concrete walls will be 10" thick.

 


Morning up on the farm – clouds have cleared out.  SIXTY FIVE degrees.  Amazing – we were in the thirties at midnight.

Waiting to be hung.  I have no idea how you hang a 1200 pound door.  Doesn’t sound fun.

 


This is what the door looks like, once it is hung.
