Great door, the reason storm shelter doors swing in is so that the door can be opened if any debris blocks the door during the storm
And I can guarantee you if there’s a tornado in that area and I cannot get a hold of these folks for a while I will be heading up there to check it out!
Did you finish your own storm shelter
That’s the way to do it. Nice job son👍
Thanks, brother!
Good job building the door and the warped steel workaround. I suggest a door peep hole so the occupants can see outside. I always look forward to your videos.
That's a good idea! Thanks!
Well I believe that's an awesome build thank you for sharing
Glad you like it!!
Extremely nice building, enjoyed your explanation of your build, how, and why. Thank You, for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!
Very cool. Nice job.
Thanks! We had fun!
Great video brother
Glad you liked it!
Great idea to reuse the big steel barrel!... Anyways, the hinges screws must be replaced by carriage bolt with washers and nuts on the other side of the door.
Awesome! I enjoy watching, keep making videos!
We’ll do it! Thanks!
Great good fellers!!
Thanks brother!!
Nice move!
Thanks!
Look ee there just like Kentucky windage love how the boys was right there to learn👍🐝
We weren’t very far from Kentucky in that video!😂
Good looking door. Looks like it is nice and solid. Great idea for a storm shelter. Have a good day Brother.
Thanks, brother! Have a great day!
That's the prettiest door I have ever seen to a shine storage facility ❤ 😂 screw it is my go to option as well 😂😂😂😂
You won’t hear me denying anything!😂😂😂
Wow ,you're definitely a FANTASTIC carpenter and a genius..with all your skills you'll never be unemployed ❤️
Wow, thank you! Eventually maybe I’ll work myself out of a job!😂😂😂
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures No your boys will work you out of a job! But thats a good thing! :p
Very true!😂😂😂😂
Great work!!
One of my favorites! Thanks so much for everything!!!
What about the turkey inspection crew? Did they pass it?
@@xkitchick Oh yeah! 😂😂😂
Good job!
Thanks!
Awesome
You should have used a old bus and place of that tank you would have used the back door to go in it and have seats build tables have running water and there and stay cool in the summer and would hold heat in the winter
Kinda hard to tell a customer to dig out a tank they already purchased and buried and put it something with glass in it 🫢🫣
Good job, teaching them young men about working and how to use tools. I have had a old tank like this , 8’ x 20’ for about 20 years , need to have a LEL done to it before I cut my door. Not ready to meet my maker. Only problem here is we have high water intrusion rate . I have a 17’ difference in landscape in 801’. I do plan to dig a pond though. Great video.
Sounds like a pond would hold water in your area!
You do a good job McGee😊
Thanks brother!
It look good to me' Great job you guys i enjoyed your video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Looks really good I would feel safe . Have great w😊
Thanks brother!
Good work guys !
Thanks a lot!
i would put 3 cross bars on that door that extended past the door frame
Hey let’s do it! I’ll get you in touch with them!
Good morning Bro. Micah. Man you got my wheels turning again. I’m sitting here contemplating what I can do with one or two of those big oil tanks. Shelters side by side in the woods maybe? 🤔 🤔 🤔 My kindling wood is starting to 🔥. 😂😂😂 BTW: Nice 🚪 job. 👍🏽
Go for it! It’s really a great way to get space pretty quickly!
Got to look into where to find and how much. Would have to be in the woods to keep it cool and hidden. I think where I live would frown on such a shelter. Definitely would have to be an off-grid project.
@duncand5148 That’s probably right…… you could call it a storm shelter and be ok though 😎😎😎
Really??? Where to find would be the biggest hurdle I imagine. Idk. Definitely entertaining the idea and concept.
Very nice !!!!
Thank you very much!
You guys did an awesome job for what you were working with ! That was a cool idea for a shelter . I think it's a good time for people to prepare for something big to happen . Do you have any feelings about something going down ? Thanks for sharing and have a great day !
Pretty much every person that thinks critically knows it’s about to get interesting.
Great video!
Thanks!
Great job! But shouldn't it open to the inside incase a tree or something else ends up in front of the door you will be trapped inside because the door won't open! Just a thought
It is definitely possible that a tree could fall there. But the way it is built is not like the ones that open outward needing to be lifted up. The trunk of the tree would have to be jammed tight against it. And it’s possible they may want to keep a chainsaw in there for just such an occasion.
You need to keep chainsaw in there in case the door gets blocked.
That’s very true!
Love it!
It’s a great little video!
Another Fine Job By The McGie Team 👍👍💯💯❤❤👏👏
Thanks! We love that kind of work!
Oil tank shelter... good idea! Sturdy and nice looking door. Yeah, they should have a small chainsaw ready to go if they head in the shelter. I bet that would make good potatoe storage.😉
Great idea! I’m thinking yes!!!
Friend from New Zealand huh, wonder who that was 😂 I'd be careful, they're upside down so that's a pretty funny country down there. I think tornadoes is about the rarest thing we get, apparently according to a geologist friend, who made a TH-cam short about it, we get everything else that people are supposed to be worried about in New Zealand except explosive mud volcanoes (we only have one mud volcano in Gisborne, lots of boiling mud pools up north but they're different from a actual mud volcano) and permafrost slump 😂 volcanic eruptions, lahars, earthquakes, flooding, hurricanes, you name it we pretty much got it 😆 great video, nice solution for the door fix btw🥝🙋
Ha! You would just happen to be the one!😂😂😂 This type of work is right up our alley!😎😎😎
Pull down garage style door with anchors..But you're door looks better
Thanks!
Looks great and strong 200 mile per hour wind warranty lol
😂😂😂 I’d say so!!!
I was blown away in a tornado a few years ago
That’s scary!!!
Hi brother, Micah , Jeff Barry from Lebanon, PA or Hershey we’re right next to each other you know I was thinking a wood door for a tornado shelter. I don’t know how that would work I mean I’m not done watching the video yet. I still have like five minutes to go, but I thought, steel and wood I don’t know, I hope it’s sturdy in a tornado and keep the people safe the video and the door looks great. I would’ve did the whole inside with two by sixes all the way up through and then put the crossmember.
It’s possible that it’s inadequate, but highly unlikely. The way we bolted it through the steel will hold in a tornado quite well, although I hope for everyone involved that it never happens!
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures brother, Micah I agree with you 100%. I pray that shelter is never used unless you park a tractor or something in it cause I wouldn’t want to see your friends getting hurt and I wouldn’t want to see you getting hurt because God loves you, and so do I.
Further, by the way, brother Micah it’s Jeff Barry again hey, I could sure use some prayers I’m going for a heart catheterization tomorrow as in Thursday and I’m not worried about the procedure. I’m worried about the results. I already had four bypasses in my heart now I don’t care if I need a stent or angioplasty I just don’t wanna have to go through open-heart surgery again Frank will tell ya. It’s no ballpark.
@BubaLabinski223 Ok brother! We’ll be praying for you!
Unless he's planning on keeping bacon in there, he won't have to worry about Frank breaking in anyway....
😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Why didnt u make the door open to the insie ? that way if some fell in fron if it they could still open it
That became an issue because the commercial storm shelters had a door on top that had to be pushed up and out…. And the odds are so high that a tree would land on it. Not the same with upright applications.
just an idea...should the door not swing in ....in case something lands in front of the door and wont allow it to open
That’s a good point! That never was popular until the storm shelters started being built that had the door laying down and in order to get out they had to push up. These upright models have a much lower chance of getting blocked……. Still the chance is there. Guess I’ll be checking on these folks after every storm!!🫢
@@McGieHomesteadAdventures can always build a shelter for door, maybe another pipe leading to it?
can you insert a shim and screw it on with it?
I could have but unnecessary since the steel was so rigid. It was like the shim was already in place.
Touch down 😅
Boom Tex a BOOM!!🔥🔥🔥
Your biggest problem is 1 way in n out. Not very good deal.
Sure but two ways in is a weakness…… having it buried under ground is by far the best way to stay alive.
Good morning
Morning!
What can't you make this is a cool idea you should show us when you get a tornado you guys chilling in the shelter
We just might do that!
