The Kearney Fire & Rescue Protection District would like for the Residents and Business Owners of our District to consider the use of "Knox-Box". There are already several businesses and residents in the area that take advantage of this system.

In the event of an emergency Knox-Box allows us to save valuable time to make entry. Not only does it allow us to save time it allows us to make access without having to force entry and potentially damage property in the process. It is great in the middle of the night for automatic alarms where it may even allow you to stay home.

Below is a list of 10 reasons from their site to consider or even use "Knox-Box":

  • Eliminate needless, costly forced entry damage that may not be covered by your insurance deductible.
  • Assure immediate building entry by firefighters without delay or waiting for building keys.
  • Protect inventory, equipment and supplies from unnecessary water damage caused by delayed sprinkler shut-off.
  • Satisfy local fire codes and emergency access ordinances.
  • Save time and aggravation by not having to drive to your building at 2:00 am for a false alarm.
  • Feel secure about emergency coverage when your building is left unattended. The fire department holds the only key to the KNOX-BOX.
  • Maintain building security after a fire alarm investigation by simply re-locking the undamaged door.
  • Protect your property from thousands of dollars in damage with this one-time, low-cost investment.
  • Depend on the highest lock box security available with attack resistant, UL tested reliability.
  • Over the last 30 years, KNOX-BOX has been the chosen solution in more than 10,000 communities nationwide - communities just like yours!
