Security has always been a top priority for businesses and individuals alike. With the advent of technology, access control systems have become more sophisticated and complex. However, there are still many challenges in managing and controlling access to buildings and other secure areas. Kn oxBox is a solution that provides secure and convenient access control for businesses and organizations by providing your local fire department with easy access to your building in an emergency.
A KnoxBox is a secure, small metal box mounted on or near the exterior of a building, often near the main entrance and always on the address side. Inside the KnoxBox is a key or keycard only an emergency first responder can access via a secure key. Emergency responders use it to access facilities without having to force entry. KnoxBox is ideal for businesses that require high-level security, such as healthcare, schools, government, and industrial facilities.
The Knox Company also makes secure devices for gate & key switches, fire department connections, standpipe connections, remote power boxes, elevator boxes, and residential options.
The KnoxBox comes in various colors, sizes, mounting options, and security levels.
How Does a KnoxBox Work?

The system is designed to prevent unauthorized access and to detect and alert users of any attempted breaches.
