* Hide-Away shelters/safe rooms provide two levels of protection from armed intruders. The standard units (folding and stationary) are made of 1/4” thick steel to provide NIJ Level IIIA protection against hand guns and shotguns, which make up 90% of violent crimes, according to a Bureau of Justice Statistics Special Report. If you want protection from high caliber and armor piercing rounds, you can order the Ballistic Option, which uses military grade steel that is used in combat vehicles to provide NIJ Level III protection up to 7.62 NATO rounds (.308 caliber).

Choose either our patent-pending, space saving, deployable unit that pops out from the wall in as little 3 seconds - or our stationary model that can be configured in a variety of shapes and sizes to fit your needs. All of our Hide-Away Storm Shelter models are certified to provide protection from devastating F-5 tornadoes. Every shelter is also rated for NIJ Level IIIA ballistic protection (all handgun and shotgun rounds).

We live in a patio home so we’re glad to have our Hide-Away right outside our kitchen door, in the garage. It doesn’t take up much room, and I sleep a lot better knowing it’s there if we ever need it.

he power of an F-5 tornado is unlike any other force on Earth. That is why we find it ironic we have been accused of “over-engineering” our shelters. The designs go well above the standards set by FEMA and the National Wind Institute (NWI) because we know the unbridled power of nature is nothing to take lightly.

It’s one thing to withstand a two-by-four being shot out of a cannon (NWI test), but some things can’t be duplicated in a lab. An F-5 tornado can pick up cars and toss them like toys, topple brick buildings and turn towering oaks into splintered piles of brush.

We don’t want families seeking shelter in anything less than something made of 1/4” steel plate. Please be sure to give proper consideration to the thickness of the steel used. It is not a decision you ever want to second guess.

Staying Home Corporation (SHC), is a unique company. We focus on designing innovative products and services for the “aging in place” to enable them to safely stay in the homes they have grown to love for as long as possible. That goal has been expanded to include making all homes, schools and workplaces safer with our tornado shelters and safe-rooms. The intent is to do this in a manner that reflects a time when companies considered customers, employees, and the surrounding community as invaluable assets. It means doing some things in ways others have abandoned:• Making everything in the heart of the U.S.A. • Donating 10% of all profits to charity.• Structuring the company so it cannot be sold.

Ownership will be turned over to the employees so they can par ticipate in the American dream and have a more secure future.

• Answering phones with people instead of computers Staying Home is an effort to create an environment where relationships with people – whether customers or associates – are a higher priority than the dollar. Meeting the needs of others, providing a place to work an honest job for a decent wage, and realizing people are the foun-dation for a company’s success are core values of SHC. Thank you for considering Staying Home Corpora-tion. We hope you will continue to watch for new and innovative products coming your way in the near future. If the old saying is true, “home is where the heart is”, let us help you stay there as long as possible. God bless.
