Knox

What is a Knox Box?

With one key, the Knox Rapid Access System removes barriers to entry when first responders respond to an emergency call.

What is the Purpose of a Knox Box?

A Knox Box is a small, wall-mounted safe that securely holds the keys needed for fire departments, emergency medical services, and sometimes police to quickly enter a building without having to force entry. A quicker response during a fire incident can decrease the damage to your building, resulting in less down time for your business.

Residential Knox boxes are a great option for homes where the occupant is mobility challenged and has a frequent need for medical responses. 

Rest assured, your keys will be safe. The fire department will be the only agency that can access them, and they will only be used during an emergency response.
