What shelters and bunkers do you offer?
We offer four types of bunker: precast reinforced concrete block bunkers, underground bunkers made from corrugated steel pipe, metal bunkers and mobile Extra shelters. In total, there are 14 standard models, from compact family blast shelters to a multi-section shelter for 90 people. We design larger, non-standard and radiation shelters individually.
How do I choose the right type of bunker?
The choice depends on the number of people, the free space on the site, ground conditions, timescale and how the shelter will be used in peacetime. For public institutions we recommend block bunkers; for taking cover quickly without excavation, Extra shelters; and for businesses and private plots needing additional protection, underground or metal bunkers.
Do your shelters meet Lithuanian requirements?
We design shelters in accordance with STR 2.07.02:2024 and other applicable legislation. The regulation requires a shelter to be built from solid structures, so for collective protection we offer precast reinforced concrete block bunkers. We offer underground and metal bunkers as blast shelters for private and business use, and as solutions for additional protection.
How many people can a shelter hold?
Capacity depends on the type of bunker, the model and the floor area. The official shelter capacity is calculated using the standard set by the Government – 1.5 m² of floor area per person: our standard block shelter designs for 10 to 90 people are based on it. In an emergency, more people can take cover in a shelter for a short time. An Extra shelter can hold up to 6 people for short-term cover (according to the manufacturer), and the smallest metal blast shelter, the M-2x2, has 4 sleeping places. The exact capacity is determined by the design.
Do you design the shelters yourselves?
Yes. We have our own design engineers, who calculate the required size of the shelter, prepare several structural options and a layout, and pass the design on to the manufacturing plant.
How long does it take to install a shelter?
It depends on the type of bunker, its size, configuration and site conditions. Indicative timescales: metal bunker manufacture – from 2 weeks; Extra – delivery from 3 weeks, set-up in 1 day; block shelter – 10–30 days once the base is ready; underground bunkers – from 4 weeks.
Can a shelter be installed on school or kindergarten grounds?
Yes, this is one of our most common enquiries. The shelter is built in the grounds, close to the building, so that children can be taken to safety quickly. The school or kindergarten can carry on as normal during installation.
Can the shelter be used in peacetime?
Yes, and we recommend it. In peacetime, a shelter can serve as a training room, meeting room, storeroom, archive, workshop or plant room.
Can a shelter be moved to another location?
Most of the structures we offer are either prefabricated or single-piece factory units, so if your needs change, they can be dismantled or dug up and installed elsewhere. We assess the feasibility and cost of relocation individually.
How much does a shelter cost and how do I get a quote?
The price depends on the type of bunker, the model, configuration, delivery distance and base preparation work, so we give it in a quote. Fill in the enquiry form or call +370 685 09501.
