Knox Box

The Columbiana Fire Department is excited about our recent implementation of the KNOX system for our City. The Knox Secure Access System is a nationally recognized access system that utilizes a system of controlled access and data logging to ensure that your business or residence is as secure as possible.

The system requires of a one time purchase of a Knox box that is to be mounted to the structure in your preferred location. Once installed one of our officers will make an on site visit to check your keys for function, and to place them in the secure Knox box and secure it.

Columbiana Fire Department’s Knox key is unique to our city and can only be accessed by our Fire Officers by means of a digitally recorded retrieval system. Each and every time our Knox key is accessed it is time, date, and ID stamped electronically for record keeping. This system allows your Columbiana Fire Department to respond to any call for assistance without adding any unneeded damage or expense to the building owner. It also alleviates the need for a key-holder to respond to the building. We would be glad to discuss the system and its many unique features with you if you so desire.

Additionally our Department has temporary KNOX boxes that can be hung over a residential door. These units can be loaned out to resident that we respond to routinely for assistance calls.

Knox Boxes can be purchased though KnoxBox.com by entering your address, and clicking on “Columbiana Fire” as your responding agency.
