Which storm shelter is right for you?
8’ x 10’ Storm Shelter
The 8’ x 10’ Safe Shed shelter is our most popular model. With plenty of room for the whole family, plus pets, neighbors, and emergency supplies, this shelter weighs in at a hefty 12 tons. Anchors and an emergency escape opening are included in the $7,995 price (delivery and sales tax extra).
6’ x 6’ Storm Shelter
Designed for smaller yards and families, the 6’ x 6’ Safe Shed shelter is FEMA-compliant and tips the scales at nearly 5.5 tons. With anchors and an emergency escape opening in the back wall, this shelter is priced affordably at only $6,495 (delivery and sales tax not included).
8’ x 10’ Hurricane Shelter
Families in hurricane-prone areas need comfortable protection for long stretches of time. The 8’ x 10’ is perfect for adding bunk beds, a chemical toilet, food storage, and a secure place for small valuables. Priced at $7,995, it’s an affordable option to bugging out (delivery and sales tax extra).

Why choose a Safe Shed storm shelter?
It’s Built Heavier.
A Safe Sheds storm shelter weighs up to 12 tons…nearly 10 times heavier than a similar sized steel shelter! And, while those steel shelters are commonly made of 1/8” steel, Safe Sheds shelters put 4” of steel-reinforced concrete between you and 250 mph wind-thrown debris. FEMA compliant Safe Sheds shelters meet the standards for “near absolute protection” and are proven to save lives.
Price…No Middleman Markups.
We build it, we sell it, we install it. There’s no dealer mark-up when you buy from Safe Sheds, so our residential storm shelters are several hundred dollars less than comparable shelters on the market. And you don’t have to spend extra on a concrete pad, since the shelters have a 6” concrete, steel-reinforced floor.
For More Than Two Decades, We’ve Built One Product.
Since 2002 Safe Sheds has focused on one thing: above-ground concrete shelters. It’s not just what we do - it’s why we do it. Our team takes pride in work that stands strong when it matters most and helps save lives. As a small, family-owned Midwestern company, we all understand the fear you feel when the sirens blow and it’s time to take cover.
No Pressure To Buy. Ever.
Whether you’re reaching out for a no-obligation quote, calling with questions about a contract, or referring a friend, we respect your time and your hard-earned money. That’s our promise. We’ll treat you the way we want to be treated - with honesty, clear answers, and absolutely no pushy sales tactics.
“It took months of research before I decided to purchase a Safe Shed for our storm shelter here in Jacksonville, Florida. I had considered other shelters, however none of them were as spacious or cost effective as Safe Sheds. It’s such a wonderful relief knowing that we have a safe place to go, for us and our pets, should we need it. I would absolutely recommend a Safe Shed to anyone in the market for a storm shelter.”
