KNOX BOX

The Marion Volunteer Fire Company is going to provide the best and most up to date service to the people of our community. When it comes to maintaining the keys to businesses, with or without alarms it has become unmanageable and is causing delays when responding to
emergencies.

In order to access buildings quickly, minimize forced entry damage to buildings and protecting the firefighters from injury. The Marion Volunteer Fire Company has adopted the Knox Box Rapid Entry Program, currently more than seven thousand fire departments and communities they protect enjoy the benefits of this proven program.

Knox Boxes are constructed on ¼ “ solid steel with a ½ steel door and reinforced locking mechanism. They are UL listed against physical attack and the Medco security lock is patented and UL listed for drill pick and pull resistance.

Knox Boxes are specified by the Marion Volunteer Fire Company but are purchased from the Knox Company. Once installed near the entrance to your property, the fire department locks your building entrance keys inside the Knox Box so that it is available onsite for future
emergencies, instead of on the fire apparatus.

If you have any questions feel free to contact the Knox Company at 1-800-552-5669 or you can visit the Knox Company website at www.knoxbox.com. Otherwise, please call Todd Sites at (717) 375-2212 to set up an appointment to go over the information on ordering and
installation of this program to your business or home.
