A friend of mine lives in a really nice double-wide on his own land. Before the trailer was placed, he built a tornado shelter, then placed the trailer over it making sure the kitchen was directly over the entrance. Ye then cut a hole in the floor as an entrance to the shelter with steps leading down. He keeps all his valuables there. In the unlikely event they got broken into, he placed a rather large throw rug over the hinged door that led to the shelter. Hard to see and find.
It’s skirted like the homes should be, so the entrance isn’t visible from outside the trailer.
He’s never had to use it, but, there’s always that first time.
Nice!
That skirting isn't going to do anything to prevent the structure from being lifted up and flipped in high winds, it's just aesthetic. Should've put it on a masonry foundation. Hope he has substantial tie-downs. Hurricane code requires it in coastal areas here.
I hope he has some sort of way to notify the outside world by radio (since cell towers go down in tornados) that he is in there. Since he very likely wont be able to open the trap door to the outside.
