On the Slope Front shelters, we use a hydraulic strut. The door can be located in the top of the unit according to the contractor or homeowner specifications. Before You Order Your Shelter The trucks that deliver the shelters must be able to get to the area where your shelter will be installed. This means that our trucks must have clearance to the installation location. Hausner s trucks are large; they need a minimum 9 of width and 13 1 /2 of clearance. Also, in order to install your shelter, OKIE requires very accurate directions to the installation location. Please be prepared to give us these directions to the tenth (1/10) of a mile in order for us to get OKIE to mark the proposed shelter location.

How to Maintain Your Shelter (Homeowner s Responsibility) It is very important to keep dirt packed around your shelter. After the first few rains, you will see considerable settling around the unit. This is normal. It is necessary to rake the dirt back up against the shelter on all sides. It is recommended by the manufacturer that the dirt remains over halfway up the sides and back of your shelter. To extend the life of the steel door hinges, it is recommended to lubricate them at least twice a year. The steel door of your shelter has been painted with a metal primer. To prevent rusting, you may wish to re-prime and/or paint when needed. Date of purchase: Warranty The manufacturer warrants that there will be no leakage in the concrete structure for a period of ten (10) years from the date of installation. This includes the seal where the two (2) units are joined. We reserve the right to repair a shelter before replacing it. The warranty does not include moisture that may appear from time to time in the form of condensation, commonly due to temperature variations, humidity, etc. Neither does the warranty include water that may enter the structure through the door or ventilator. Small cracks caused by expansion and/or contraction which do not create a leakage or structural problem are not covered by the warranty. This warranty is non-transferrable. Lubricate hinges twice a year. Hinges are not covered under any warranty. Homeowner will be charged for hinge replacements if required.
