Security & Safe Room Doors For Severe Weather

Storm Shelter door with lock box.

Vault Pro's Vault, Security & Safe Room Doors take on a different stance when used on the exterior of the home, business or storm shelter. 

Exposure to the elements (sun, rain, snow & tornado's) is a major concern when dealing with steel products.  The sun alone will destroy most coatings and the rain or snow will be right behind it to rust up moving parts that aren't well sealed or properly weather proofed.  Tornado's of course will damage just about anything in it's path and usually tear locks and handles off of normal vault doors.

The fact that these doors are exposed to the outdoors also exposes them to potential criminal activity that may result in an attempted break in.

For Vault, Security & Safe Room Doors that are intended to be exposed to the weather, Vault Pro goes the extra mile ensuring that any and all seams are sealed completely, all steel surfaces are properly prepped, primed and coated with a U.V. protected Marine Grade finish. 

Heavy duty lock box protects lock from elements.

Protecting the lock & handle, Vault Pro heavy hinges a 1/4" steel protective box completely over both the lock and handle. Vault Pro's known for tight tolerances and we demonstrated it once again with a lock cover that closes with less than 1/16" gap over the surface of the door when locked.  We don't just call it quits after that...we have put this protective cover to the test.  Notice the rain gutter covering the top three sides of the lock & handle, it isn't there just to channel the water away...it is built to exactly match the inside of the lock box to support it when it is closed and locked. If the box itself is beat repeatedly during an attack or by tornado debris the rain gutter & support does not allow the protective box to move from it's original position...even after repeated blows from a 16 lb. sledge hammer.  When a siliconized gasket is applied, water is channeled away from potentially sensitive area's of the door keeping the lock and handle dry and functioning even in the worst of storms or attempted break in.
