The Minnesota Bonding Bill helps law enforcement gain quicker access to locked-down schools during emergencies through a $1 million grant for public, private, and charter schools to install law enforcement key boxes that meet the UL 1037 standard on school buildings.
THE KNOXBOX IS A PROVEN, EASY-TO-IMPLEMENT, AND COST-EFFECTIVE SOLUTION TO COMPLY WITH THE NEW STATE LAW.

KnoxBoxes are weather- and vandal-resistant, meeting UL 1037 (required by law)

The KnoxVault® 4400 is large enough to contain multiple keys, access cards, and school layouts

Easy to install; no power required, allows strategic and flexible placement of
the boxes

Multiple system configurations to meet your emergency access needs
If you currently have a KnoxBox for fire department use, you only comply with the law if law enforcement also has access and the KnoxBox is being electronically monitored.
