Corrected entry: In the scene where Christopher Walken comes up in the elevator for the first time, he breaks through the floor of "Moms" quite easily. Earlier in the film, the builders discover the "septic tank" (which is the entrance to the shelter) they comment about laying the cement slab right over the top. If there had been cement over the top, wouldn't it have been a little harder for the elevator to get through and wouldn't there have been rubble, rather than the clean break he made?

Correction: There were two entrances to the shelter. There is a whole scene in which Calvin (Christopher Walken) explains to Helen (Sissy Spacek) about how they'd have to use the elevator back up, because the ladder entrance they took down in the first place had been caved-in from the "bomb." It is likely that perhaps the "septic tank" the men discovered was just a part of the roof of the fallout shelter, and not necessarily the elevator.
