Knox Box System
The KNOX-BOX® Rapid Entry System allows, entry into residences and buildings by fire department in the event of an emergency. Property owners in Piedmont can store entrance keys, access cards and floor plans in high-security Knox-Boxes mounted near their home entrances. Each KNOX-BOX purchased by the home owner is keyed to a single Knox® Master Key controlled by the Piedmont Fire Department.
With the Knox System there is no forcing the doors open or breaking windows to gain entry. The Knox Rapid Entry System reduces response time, property damage and the liability for lost keys.

After your Knox Box has been installed, a Piedmont Fire employee will be happy to secure the contents of your box for use in the future. Once secured the only way to access the box is via the master key that is locked in a digital combination safe, in each PFD apparatus, and that are inventoried on a daily basis. If you ever need to access your Knox Box to update it's contents, Just give our business line a call and we'd be happy to set a time to come out to open it for you.
