[QUOTE="Hangfire, post: 3334787, member: 27673"] Not going to argue the point of which is better but after going down in the neighbors in ground garage floor shelter and closing the lid mama and I both felt really uneasy / claustrophobic so we went with a above ground in the garage shelter......since their install a few years back (both now in their mid 80's) he's developed Parkinsons pretty bad and she is hunkered pretty far over with scoliosis so I don't know how in the hell they are going to get down in the thing in a timely manner once the siren goes off. Stuff happens and after seeing the shape they are in I also got to thinking about what if one of us just had a surgery or became dependent on a walker or wheel chair, there's no way could we get down in a below ground but with a above ground we could at least walk or wheel our way in. [B]Hopefully none of us will ever have the need to use any sort of shelter.[/B] [ATTACH=full]156194[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]156195[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
