Im building an off grid ranch in Arizona, Under my 30x50 shop we are putting 2 level deep the same size as the shop above all totally concealed to the point a new owner could move in and they wouldnt find it unless we gave them the Key if you wanna call it that. I think keeping it hidden is the best line of defense.
How do you keep it so hidden that a new person wouldn't find out? I am thinking of getting a 1000mSQ plot of land and building a perimeter wall with a simple hut/ house as a cover in the middle, and below will be like 3 levels of bunkers.. -1 A shopping mall/ apartment building inspire underground parking lot -2 Living quarters with a huge atrim in the middle so you could see down to level -3 -3 will be the Essentials, like green house, communal kitchen, gun room gun range, communal laundromat, decon laundromat. Etc. But i have been having difficulties finguring out how to make it so hidden that nobody would know that there will be or is a entrance to a huge mancave underneath.. besides the huge underground garage opening i want it to be invisible from inside the house.. If you could help me or give me some ideas that would be perfect
split level building with drive in entrance disguised as regular wall , from inside house you can do everything from hidden bookshelf door to secret entrance under carpet that you don't open till doomsday, the back of closet is excellent place for secret door(how many people pull all clothes and things out and look at back closet wall?
My type of dream home. Bunker living. Comforting and comfortable. A place where nobody can interrupt your peace and quiet unless you allow it. Well this has been my idea of a dream home since I was 10 years old in the mid 1970s. I will never be able to fulfill that dream. But that would be so cool and dreaming is free. 😁 Great video! So cool the things in this bunker and so many things that could be added or changed to whatever you could want. 😎👍
Something I would want done differently, or in ADDITION to, the water system in that bunker. Add a filter before the external water goes into the tanks or water heater with the cross-over from the output of the tanks is back on the INPUT of the filter. Even if it was just the particulate portion of the RO system, every little bit would be a help, and not THAT big an increase in cost.
I'd like to have a way to recirculate my water supply while it's not being used so it can re-oxygenate. It would also help lengthen the life of the water filters, especially if you have the extra filter as suggested above. I'd also like a way to limit water usage to the shower when it's not being used for decon. Really, there should be a decon shower before entering the living quarters.
This has bugged me for years but since the subject of a secret passage was brought up.... The proximity of the escape hatch to the bunker has driven me almost to drink. I'd love to see someone actually ask for an escape tunnel ending up in the woods or elsewhere if leaving the bunker was absolutely necessary. And just because it should be seriously considered, the entrance and escape should be booby trapped.
@@kevinmoore2929 if/when I can afford one that's what it will be with mine. Either in or behind another building at least 50 feet away. The problem with popping up in the woods is avoiding killing trees while you're digging the trench for the tunnel.
@@michiganengineer8621 at my farm you'd never believe how fast trees grow back if you remove them. In under 10 years we had a road through our farm we didn't need or care about so we let the trees move in. Here we are now you'd never have known 10 years ago anything was there.,.. that area is a forest now just because we stopped maintaining that space. It is thick with trees now.
@@kevinmoore2929the main reason is in case of an emergency inside the tunnel like a fire where the gasses can kill you quickly. The escape is there so you can try to get up and out fast without having to go for 200 yards through a tube before you get to the ladder. The lesser reason is for an attack where you need to escape someone trying to get in.
You're absolutely correct if anybody does their homework they'll realize that you build a top-notch bunker. Keep up the good work and the videos. It was quite informative
I wonder if an array of a few solar panels would be good camouflage for putting on top of the containers. You could wire them to power your house, so it could look like all it does is power the main house.
I love how you guys always go a step above and beyond. I think you mentioned in this video that you always try and illuminate as many points of failure as possible. If I build a bunker in one day, I’m absolutely going to have you guys do it there is no question about that. I really enjoy watching these videos and I’m learning so much. My biggest problem is I don’t know where in the country to build something like this. Currently I live in Phoenix Arizona and I love living here but I’m thinking I should move may be to Northern Arizona or at least part where you were at a little bit cooler without being in the fridge and conditions like Flagstaff, Flagstaff Arizona it’s gonna be too cold for me.
I was surprised the customer didn't install an underground tunnel system to the bunker from all the buildings. This is one of your best videos yet !! Keep building the best product out there!!
Is the plumbing vent routed through the blast valve? If not, that will be quite a mess if some form of explosion blows the contents of the p-trap back into the bunker.
Great video Ron, absolutely love watching these amazing bunker get installed and I love hearing the details and explanation of the process for how and why. I hope I can afford a couple of good sized bunkers before prices go to high or before I need one.
Looking good but I have 2 suggestions to improve your plumbing. Expansion tank for the water heater and 2nd put a check valve on the supply line to not loose any potential stored water.
Ron you could use dado for the sockets put it round like skirting board and it can be boxed up for your sockets and spurs etc I don't know if it's sold in America but it's common in the UK for offices etc looks smart as well that way you wouldn't need to use conduit for the sockets on a no under floor storage set up also they do a skirting board with two pipes in so hot and cold could be ran through that
There is a plumbing company in my town that refurbishes old cast iron sewer pipes that have been in the ground for a long time by coating the insides with a two part epoxy.
i am worthless with a wrench , but i would love to find a way for a aquaponic garden in a bunker it could be the diffrence between eating and starving ,plus give the family something to do while in there.
With all the pipes etc coming out of the bunker it sees impossible to conceal the bunkers location. Additionally, you show the sink and toilets but wondering when does all that dark water ad waste go to? You show that there is a generator but never mention where you store the fuel. Really enjoy your videos Ron, they are very informative so that any future customer can have the knowledge as to what ask. Please keep up the fantastic videos
I really, really enjoyed this video as well. The secret door with extra storage was very intriguing and a few other key points I picked up on were extremely helpful. Thanks Ron and team. You have been a great help on this journey. 🥳🍾
still should have storage under each, spend the money for the concrete , keep the storage under the first one also one food medicine and canned water something to store , it may come in handy should still put in the generator the grid could go down better safe than sorry , i know you may not have the cash but find a way.
odd that the bathroom is at the entrance. It also seems like a little more design could simplify things.For example, they are like, "just plug this pump in and shut these valves". Why not have the pump hard-wired and just have a switch? Little details like that, adding a $2 switch, is better than crawling under a water tank.
Ron, when are you going to start using the newer reverse osmosis system with the easy 1/4 turn twist on/off filters ? That thing is a dinosaur. But it still gets the job done.
I think it's more likely that we will get hit by an asteroid or supervolcano eruption. If either of those happen then a layer of dirt possibly many feet will be on top of this bunker and don't forget about the tsunami or weeks of continuos rain which usually happens after a large impact. It would probably be a good idea to place this in a location that has no chance of flooding and or make it completely waterproof. You'll also need some kind of hydraulic lift to get to the surface if you get buried in dirt.
@RON. Maybe do a basement replacement instead of a basement a bunker. So 5000 sqft house a 1000sqft a bunker. Not basement. with The world falling apart And all the DIY housing systems. Seems like a profitable idea.
That would be called a panic room. You need a gas tight door, strong walls preferably fire and bulletproof. Air filtration with positive air pressure, I would be happy with a commercial filter, I don’t rate NBC as a significant threat in my rural area. It should be hidden, so it has to be in line with the expected floor plan. If you’re building then I would use ICF and put it under the garage, driveway or patio with a hidden door into the basement. Use the house to supply the bunker with utilities, weeping tile, insurance, hide the air system in the walls, privately stock preps. Have a trapdoor hidden under a drainage grate in the garage, that only opens from inside.
OK, dumb question, how deep do you put these shelters? I am not sure based on the video it doesn't seem to be more than a couple feet. I don't mean to the bottom, I am referring to the top of the shelter to the ground level after the dirt is put on top, if that makes sense.
How water tight are these bunkers you make I live were every now and again it floods and I have water all the way around my house that’s lifted so the ground stays super saturated for months sometimes would one of these handle that
I know there is a ton of extras, but 350k is a little more than I would have expected for 2 shipping containers. I was thinking something like this, with one container being storage, and one being more comfortable, I would have expected this to be more in the 150k range. What would you have to cut out to get a 2 container setup for 150k?
For what purpose? The hatch is locked and so is the bunker entrance door. Maybe the 2nd unit should have been sealed off, but the client wanted the odd bookcase thing for some reason.
Got to ask. Do you have to get a bunch of permits to do these bunker installs? Personally I would not be to enthusiastic about the government knowing I had a bunker.
@@AtlasSurvivalShelters German plumbing is really well engineered, they’d use stainless steel for most of that. They really would be baffled as to why a concealed domestic filter install was done inside a bunker, they’d hang all of that on the wall where it could be easily maintained. They install to industrial standards for maximum efficiency and reliability, which is actually what you want in a bunker really
Why do you put the emergency escape next to the shelter? If someone is trying to get in you would think you would have the escape hatch like 100+ feet away.
Greetings Ron, Is it possible to go deeper? For instance, having 20ft of soil above your head. Or is there some sort of limiting factor that prevents that?
I want to come work for you !!! I believe in what you do and atlas systems passionately, I would love to be a part of helping you help others in getting there bunkers fabed up set up and installed
Like the design and wish I had the bank account for something like this. I did have a question, at 19:52 when showing the breaker panel, there are what look to be 2 arc burns inside it on both sides of the bars? Was that an accident on install or something since?
QUESTION: what do you do with trash when your surviving in the bunker, I don’t like the idea storing it in the generator pod and having to smell the town dump to maintain your generator.
Double bag it all, over a few weeks there is going to be minimal waste and smell if you wash out all food containers. It’s not likely you’d have any vegetable or bone waste to dispose of
In the long term how do the tops hold up ? seems like all the water would pool up for extend periods in all them squares not having a smooth top for water to run off to the sides . I have so many questions about bunkers that never get touched on in any of the videos .
What is the use case for something like this? Obviously it will help tremendsouly in a natural disaster situation. You would be able to secure yourself during the situation. And even continue living in it after the disaster, but if the owner has been able to spend 450K only on this, I am sure he has another house some other place to go to after. In a end-of-the-world scenario, the family would be able to hide and live... but if anybody discovers where they lived it would not take to much effort to force them out with all those air tubes sticking out.... any specific video where use cases are discused?
Hey bud we want one of your underground shelters so bad but in the last few years I’ve spent over 40 grand on the purchase of the cabin and property I’d like to invite you or one one of your associates to check our property out I would feel safer with an atlas shelter than any other one !!
That’s some amount of footing having a 12inch pad bu😢with the presence of hindsight it’s better to have overkill instead of worrying about not having enough though, anyhoo I’ve been wondering if you’ve put any bunkers deeper than I’ve seen in most of your videos and the reason I’m asking is because if I had the means to do so I’d have mine down past bedrock at least 100ft but apart from that it’s another cracking video that never mind a fallout shelter I’d stay in it as my home with my flatulent prone dog and my semi feral gaurd cat. 👍🙏
Looks real good, but why are you still using the plex B which can and will fail. Plex A (UPONOR) is a way better product and will not fail. You should look into it.
I’ve found two Atlas bunkers. Knowing where something is is not very useful in practice especially when you live in a different country. It’s like knowing where the governmental bunkers are, they are not going to let you in
Water system has no drain valve(s)? The air intake for the saniflow, is that bypassing the blast valve intake? Because if it is, a blast wave will easily rupture that PVC pipe. It's a bad decision to try and install all that under a sink, it looks nice, but if you have to disassemble it to change the filters or replace the macerator (they do fail...), then you'd really wish you hadn't
@@AtlasSurvivalShelters So this is just a fallout shelter? But at 16:42 there is a blast valve? I'd agree that being within a blast zone is extremely unlikely, but this seems like an oversight to have a sewage line venting directly to the outside? You can get internal air system vents that would do the same thing I believe

All depends on what bunker and the size you need ????
What is used for a/c and heat?
this bunker is located outside portland OR. i could probably figure out where with some in depth research.
Not even close
@@AtlasSurvivalShelters good deflection
I’ve found two Atlas bunkers. Knowing where something is is not very useful in practice especially when you live in a different country. It’s like knowing where the governmental bunkers are, they are not going to let you in
@@the_chomper Why do you think it's in portland ?
@@MrJedi5150 What's that?
Atlas is the best. As soon as I win the lottery I'll be a customer, lol... 😆
Waaaay too much for that. That's more than most homes. You could transfer your basement into the bunker of your dreams for $100K.
Where do you do your laundry?
I love your videos!!!!
📐🔨💯The Best Detail Bunker To Date!
I will definitely buy a Atlas bunker before building my house first.
A secret passage from your secret bunker to your extra secret bunker.
as a steel working i would love to build these for yall. Do you have locations in Texas?
Yes they are all made in texas
i guess install price is a lot of money too
the top does not look like its very deep... good video
Have you got a manufacturer in Australia?
Soon
This is would be so nice for my mother in law, how deep did you say its burried??? lol
hi Ron do you do installation in Serbia(Europe)? btw nice video
He has a place in Poland now that started production for people in Europe.
Yes we will. I'm working in poland Romania ukraine Greece and Italy already
Does it have a secret passage?
Water system has no drain valve(s)?
The air intake for the saniflow, is that bypassing the blast valve intake? Because if it is, a blast wave will easily rupture that PVC pipe.
It's a bad decision to try and install all that under a sink, it looks nice, but if you have to disassemble it to change the filters or replace the macerator (they do fail...), then you'd really wish you hadn't
Fallout shelters are different than blast shelters. 3-6' of concrete is added and steel plumbing then
@@AtlasSurvivalShelters So this is just a fallout shelter? But at 16:42 there is a blast valve?
I'd agree that being within a blast zone is extremely unlikely, but this seems like an oversight to have a sewage line venting directly to the outside? You can get internal air system vents that would do the same thing I believe
So far I seem on this it’s not safe
@@Kapu5-15 oh I believe it’s really safe, these points are just unlikely edge cases
Very nice keep up the great work.
