Order and consultation for the installation of a bunker kit
Personalized consultation
Bunker kit installation begins with a personalized consultation. Our regional experts travel to assess your specific needs. This step is crucial to determining the type of bunker that best suits your situation. Our experts consider a variety of factors, such as the size of your lot, your capacity needs, and the specifics of your geographic location. They advise you on the bunker model best suited, whether it's a small bunker for a family or a larger structure for a community.
Placing the order
Once the bunker model is chosen, the order is placed. At this point, an installation schedule is established. This schedule is essential to coordinate the various stages of the installation and ensure that the project progresses smoothly. It includes specific dates for site preparation, bunker delivery, and assembly and finishing work.
Site preparation before installation of the bunker kit
Land assessment
Before starting the installation, careful site preparation is essential. Our teams go on site to carry out a complete assessment of the soil and topography. This assessment helps determine the best location for the bunker and identify any obstacles, such as tree roots or rocks, that could complicate the installation.
Digging and pouring the slab
We first define the location and then we dig the area where we will install the bunker. In fact, we carry out this digging according to the specifications of the chosen model to guarantee a stable installation. Once the digging is completed, we pour a concrete slab. This slab serves as a solid foundation for the bunker, ensuring its long-term stability and durability. It must be perfectly leveled and dry before we continue the work.
Delivery of the bunker kit
Delivery of components
We then deliver the bunker kit at the installation site. In addition, we carefully plan the transportation of components to minimize the risk of damage. The kits include all sections necessary for bunker assembly, including NBC filtration systems (Nuclear, Biological, Chemical) and safety equipment.
Preparation for assembly
Upon arrival of the components, our teams check that all elements are present and in good condition. This step is crucial to avoid any delays during assembly. The components are then arranged in an organized manner around the site, facilitating their access during construction.
Installation of the bunker kit
Assembling the sections
We begin the assembly of the bunker by placing the main sections in place. First, we carry out this step quickly and efficiently thanks to a modular system. Then, we fasten the sections together using bolts and welds, respecting the strictest safety standards. This process guarantees a solid structure capable of withstanding extreme conditions.
Positioning on the slab
Once the bunker is assembled, it is carefully positioned on the foundation slab. This step requires absolute precision to ensure the stability of the bunker. The bunker is then fixed to the slab to prevent any movement or slipping.
Backfilling
After positioning the bunker, backfilling is carried out. This step consists of covering the walls of the bunker with the surrounding soil to reinforce its protection. Backfilling also ensures perfect integration of the bunker with the ground, making it practically invisible from the outside. The choice of backfill materials is crucial to ensure good sealing and effective thermal insulation.
Checks and finishing of the installation of the bunker kit
Connecting filtration systems
We then install NBC filtration systems. These systems are essential to ensure a safe indoor environment by filtering the air of all potentially dangerous impurities. Our experts carefully check the installation of these systems to ensure they are working properly. In addition to filtration systems, we also install and test other safety equipment, such as communication systems and generators.
Testing of decontamination systems
We also install and test decontamination systems, which clean people and objects entering the bunker. Indeed, these systems play a vital role in preventing contamination of the bunker interior in the event of an NBC threat. In addition, we carry out rigorous testing to ensure that these systems are working properly and can be activated quickly in the event of an emergency.
Commissioning
Training of occupants
Once the bunker installation is complete, our experts proceed with a complete commissioning. This step includes detailed training for the occupants of the bunker. This training covers the daily use of the bunker, the management of life support systems, and the procedures to follow in the event of an emergency. Occupants also learn to carry out regular checks to ensure that all systems are functioning properly.
Documentation and maintenance
In addition, we provide comprehensive documentation containing all the necessary information on the operation and bunker maintenance. This documentation includes, among other things, manuals for each installed system, troubleshooting guides, and technical support contacts. In addition, we also recommend a regular maintenance program to ensure the longevity of the bunker and the safety of the occupants.
