| THE KNOX RAPID ENTRY SYSTEM |
 |
Business owners have saved millions of dollars by using
the Knox Rapid Entry System. The Knox system allows firefighters
immediate access
to locked buildings, storage rooms, elevators, gates and other secured areas without
causing property damage from forced entry procedures.
The KNOX-BOX® is purchased from the Knox Company by the property owner and mounted near a building entrance. It contains keys, electronic access cards, floor plans, Haz-Mat data and other vital building information firefighters will need when responding to an alarm. The fire department controls the master key giving them immediate access to handle any emergency at any time.
If
you are interested in installing a KNOX-BOX®
within the City of Concord or Penacook, please
visit their website at Knoxbox.com. A KNOX-BOX®
is mandatory on any new or renovated building with a required fire alarm
system.
Some reasons to why you should install a KNOX-BOX®:
-
Eliminates needless, costly forced entry damage
-
Ensures immediate building entry by fire personnel
-
Eliminates waiting for building keys
-

-
The KNOX-BOX® system is attack resistant and UL listed to meet extreme climate and environmental conditions
-
Increases your peace-of-mind knowing that only fire personnel hold the key to the KNOX-BOX® and that they can quickly respond to an emergency without your presence
