New saferoom!

We finally had a safe room/tornado shelter installed under the stairwell in the house last Friday.  The guys arrived early and it started off with the easy pieces...
But then I realized that the baseboards and part of the door frame really didn't need to be removed!  So once they helped me put that back, they were back on schedule.
Here are the bolts:
And yes, a Hilti drill!
Halfway through!  And somehow, Graham was still able to fall sleep/take his nap during all the drilling and vacuuming!
All done!  Maybe it can be Graham's new time-out room :-)
We'll need a bench or a couple of chairs for the deeper end of the shelter since the ceiling slants downwards.
It's suppose to fit 4 adults comfortable, but I seriously hope we don't ever have to use it!
