The goal of the Dunn's Corners Fire Department is to provide the best and most up-to-date service to the people in our fire protection area. In contrast, maintaining keys to alarmed buildings/residences has long been seen as being unmanageable, causing delays when responding to emergencies.

In order to access buildings quickly, minimize forced entry damage, and protect firefighters from injury, the Dunn's Corners Fire Department has adopted a Lock-Box Rapid Entry System. Currently, more than seven thousand fire departments and the communities they protect enjoy the benefits of this proven system.

Lock-Boxes are constructed of ¼" solid steel with a ½" steel door and reinforced locking mechanism. They are UL listed against physical attack and the security lock is patented and UL listed for drill, pick and pull resistance.

The master key to open the Lock-Box is held ONLY by the Dunn's Corners Fire Department. This high security key is strictly controlled and is produced ONLY by the EAS factory under direction from an authorized fire official's signature.

EAS Lock-Boxes are specified by the Dunn's Corners Fire Department but are purchased directly from the EAS Company. Once installed near the entrance to your property, the department locks your building entrance key inside the Lock-Box so that it is available onsite for future emergencies.

The Dunn's Corners Fire Department requires that all commercial buildings in the District install a Lock-Box. Residences are not required to have a Lock-Box, but having one will ensure quick, damage-free access to the premises in the event of an alarm activation or a fire. If you have questions about this program, please contact Chief Frink at 401-322-5077.
