Document Storage Tips

Fire, flood and theft safe document storage for your valuable papers is an important consideration, as they cannot be replaced easily if catastrophe strikes. There is no one option offering complete document protection. Make copies and store in different locations, and be sure to house them in a fireproof safe or storage box, hidden in locations recommended by local fire and police officials.

Fight Hurricane & Tornado Storms with Metal Connectors

Hurricane and tornado storms look for the weakest links in your home. Fight back by strengthening your next home with metal connectors that tie your roof and walls to the foundation. Direct hits by hurricanes or tornadoes will overcome these connectors, but homes out of direct line will gain valuable time to seek shelter and have a much better chance to last through the storm.

Above Ground Tornado Shelter

If you have no place to shelter from a hurricane or tornado, plan an interior, above ground retreat from high winds and damage. Plan space for safety from hurricanes and tornadoes before building your home. Use steel reinforced concrete block walls and tie walls to floor slab and concrete roof to the walls. Your hurricane/tornado safety shelter needn't be more than 40 sq. ft. for a family of five.
