Knox <br />Box <br />Key <br />Secure <br />System <br />Update <br />2026 thru 2030 <br />Capital Improvement Plan <br />Elk River, Minnesota <br />Project #FD-26 <br />Project Name Knox Box Key Secure System Update <br />Contact Fire Chief Department Fire <br />Type Maintenance Category Unassigned <br />Status Active Useful Life None <br />Description <br />The Knox system is a key box system that allows police, fire, and EMS access to buildings in our communities during an emergency without having to damage a door to gain <br />entry. This saves valuable time and property. We currently have 363 Knox boxes around our communities. The upgrade to the newest key secure system would also enable <br />us to manage the key system from a cloud-based program remotely, versus having to utilize older technology and physically plugging into the units. There are currently 32 <br />key secure units in service across the Elk River Fire, Police and Ambulance fleet. <br />Justification <br />Current system is outdated, relying on older technology for maintaining and tracking users and keys. This has led to situations causing delays for police, fire, and EMS to be <br />able to access buildings in a timely manner in an emergency. This will improve reliability, maintenance, and security of these units. <br />Funding Sources 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 Total <br />Yet To Be Determined 55,000 0 0 0 0 55,000 <br />Total 55,000 0 0 0 0 55,000 <br />Produced Using Plan-It CIP Software Page 82 of 312
