Olathe sits right in the path of Kansas spring storms, and a lot of the newer homes here have no basement to take cover in. I install FEMA-rated safe rooms so your family has a real place to go when the sirens sound.

The problem is that much of Olathe's recent growth, the slab-built homes out toward K-7 and the newer subdivisions, came up without basements. A hallway is not a safe place in a real tornado. A rated shelter is.
For a slab home, the garage floor shelter is what I install most in Olathe. It sets into the garage slab, the steel lid sits flush so you can park over it, and it meets ICC-500. If you have got the floor space, an above-ground bolt-down safe room works too and can double as a closet. Both are rated for EF5 level winds and debris. See the above-ground options for more.
The state runs a Safe Room Rebate through the Kansas Division of Emergency Management, and Olathe homeowners in Johnson County have tapped it for years to offset part of a qualifying shelter. It opens in limited funding windows, so being ready matters. I build to the program standards and help you through the application. Details are on my rebate page.
