    What is an Emergency Pro Escape Hatch and do I need one?

    An Emergency Escape Hatch is an exit used when the primary means of escape or exit from a shelter or safe room are blocked, unusable or unavailable. Every Storm Shelter Safe Room should have an Emergency Pro Escape Hatch.

    Vault Pro has designed and engineered several different types of escape hatches that can be used in tornado storm shelters, safe rooms and underground bunkers. Scroll through the page for more information on our escape hatches.

    Vault Pro Hatches are built to exceed FEMA 320, 361 and ICC-500 recommended standards.
      Emergency escape hatches for safe rooms and storm shelters made in USA

      If something should block your main door or primary exit while you are inside a safe room/storm shelter, a secondary means of egress could be the difference between life and death. Vault Pro’s all American Made Pro Escape Hatches are built to match the security level and fire protection of your Vault Pro Shelter Door. Emergency Pro Escape Hatches can be either in or out-swing hinged and can even open vertically for egress at the top of a ladder. Vault Pro’s Emergency Escape Hatches are made to open from the inside only but can be configured to open from the outside as well. Ask one of our Vault Pro’s for details.

                                    If you are building a safe room, storm shelter or walk-in vault or have the means to alter an existing one, you should consider a secondary means of egress. If for any reason something should block your primary exit while you are inside, a second means of escape could mean your life. Vault Pro will build an all American Made Emergency Pro Escape Hatch to match the security level and fire protection of your Vault Pro Vault Door. Emergency Pro Escape Hatches can be in-swing or out-swing hinged and can even open vertically at the top of a ladder with the assistance of gas shocks or hydraulics. Most Emergency Pro Escape Hatches are made to open only from the inside however, outside opening is available. Call for more details and a FREE QUOTE: CLICK TO CALL

                                          How Does Vault Pro Build Emergency Pro Escape Hatches?
                                          We start with Prime Grade American Steel that is cut and bent to exacting specifications to match the client’s requirements. Frames for the emergency hatches are squared before they are full seam welded and reinforced with backing for locking bolts and ¾” step systems.
                                          assembling hatch doors for safe rooms and shelters
                                          welding and assembling hatch doors for safe rooms and shelters
                                          The doors begin as hand cut and custom fit ¼” steel fronts that are also reinforced with guide rails and step systems to perfectly match the frame. After adding appropriate fire insulation, the locking mechanism and internal releases are installed using very heavy duty steel guides. The door is then hinged to the frame using Vault Pro’s own 1¼” diameter seamless ¼” tubing and ¾” solid cold rolled steel bar to far exceed any stresses the door may encounter. 

                                          After quality inspection for fit and function, the Pro Escape Hatches are painted, fit for gaskets and final inspected before being packed for shipping.
