SAFETY

KNOX BOX RAPID ENTRY SYSTEM FOR SENIORS

We provide (Loan) a small safe-like box that attaches to the seniors home entry door. The Knox Box opens with a special key available only to Miami Township Fire & EMS personnel. The Knox Box then allows entry into the protected home. This decreases the likelihood of property damage caused by forcing entry into a senior citizens home. These Knox Boxes are similar to Boxes used to protect businesses. There are 58 Miami Township seniors currently protected with Knox Box's owned by Miami Township Fire & EMS. All boxes were purchased with donations. IAFF 3768 has purchased 3 Knox Boxes for this program. The Senior Knox Box Program was established in 1995.
