How do I find vendors for shelters or safe room construction?
The designs in FEMA 320 can be built by most residential contractors. The qualifications and reputation of any contractor can be checked by the homeowner for all projects. If you are unsure of any shelter product, you should contact your local or state emergency management office. FEMA can provide your local emergency manager assistance in answering questions. The Wind Engineering Research Center at Texas Tech University also provides technical guidance about shelters. Their toll free number is 1-(888) 946-3287, ext. 336.
