In an emergency, Knox products provide first responders with immediate access into secured buildings, campuses, residences and commercial properties. A properly installed Knox key box or key switch can reduce forced entries and property damage and allows for site security to be restored quickly and easily. For certain facilities, fire departments may require installation of a key box or key switch in a pre-approved location to gain entry during emergencies (CA Fire Code §506). If you are installing a new automatic gate, please consult your local building department. Knox product ordering, installation requirements and emergency access is determined by fire department jurisdiction. Suisun City Fire Department partners with the Knox Company for approved products. Only Suisun City Fire Department can open Knox products in the within our jurisdiction.
