The Power of the Knox Master Key

During an emergency, law enforcement needs quick, unimpeded access to the scene. With the growing trend of gated communities, campuses and building complexes, rapid access has become a problem.


Knox Rapid Access Solutions enable immediate emergency entry with one master key. The master key can be sub-mastered to share access between agencies. Hold the power to gain rapid access through:

Gates
Secure Entry Points
Buildings
