Knox Box Program:
The Shelburne Fire Department encourages all local business to participate in our Knox box program. A Knox box is a small armored vault that is securely bolted to the building and contains keys to a building. In an emergency, this system provides access to the building more quickly, helping the Fire Department minimize damage that might occur while waiting for a keyholder to respond. The Fire Department goes to great lengths to keep the master key secure and the master key for Knox boxes in Shelburne is different than the master keys for Knox boxes in other towns or cities in our area.
More information on the Knox box program can be found by downloading the following:
