Mobile tornado shelters are designed so that they can be rapidly deployed and quickly set up at virtually any location where they are needed. These shelters can provide protection during tornadoes and similar severe weather events such as hurricanes. They are usually about 20 feet long by 8 feet wide, have integrated interior benches and lighting, as well as natural air ventilation. They are usually encased in ¼-inch thick premium solid steel that is reinforced with heavy-duty structural steel framing for extra stability and wind resistance. This is a key reason why these shelters are approved for EF-5 (250 miles per hour) wind impact

These buildings provide both custom-fitted and accessible solutions to shield essential gear at construction sites that lack permanent infrastructure. These buildings include resilient exteriors, protected storage, and locking doors. They are often used to store materials, equipment, and tools.
