Survive-a-Storm Shelters SASAL0606, SASAS0404 Installation guide

  • Hello! I'm your chat assistant. I've reviewed the provided installation instructions for SURVIVE-A-STORM shelters. This document contains detailed steps for assembling different sizes of panelized shelters, starting from placing the corner panels to securing them with anchors. The guide also clarifies needed tools for assembly, hardware and torque specifications. I am ready to help with any questions you might have regarding the installation process.
  • What is the first step in assembling the shelter?
    How are the A panels attached to the B corner?
    Do the roof panels have pre-installed hardware?
    What type of drill bit is needed for the anchors?
    What torque is recommended when securing the anchors?
1 - Start with any B corner by placing it in the preferred corner for installation.
2 - Attach adjacent A panel to B corner using the 1 ½” bolts with a washer on both the bolt and nut sides. Do not tighten, yet.
3 - Proceed with remaining panels until finished as shown in diagram. Add or subtract 2’ A panels to create size of building purchased.
If you have A/V (audio/video) panels, they can be substitued in any of the A panel locations.
4 - Install the roof J panels. The roof’s square holes will have cage nuts on the outside. Use 1 ½” bolts and washers from the inside. Do not tighten.
5 - Straighten and square walls. Using ¾” socket and wrench, tighten and torque bolts as you square up. Tighten and torque roof.
6 - Using a 3/8” masonry bit, drill 4” deep holes at the anchor hole locations. Tap in wedge anchors in holes.
7- Put washer and nut on anchor and tighten to manufacturer-recommended 25 lbs. torque.
