Residential Lock Box

 

 

Are you concerned that you or a relative might suffer a medical emergency while home alone and unable to get to the the door?

The Residential Lock Box Program is available to residents of the Sugar Grove to provide first responders a secure means to access your home in case of a medical emergency.  With this box in place, only emergency responders can gain access to the resident in need without forcing entry and causing damage to the residence. They simply remove the entrance key stored inside, provide medical assistance, and relock your door when they leave. The lock box is easily secured over the top your front door, no drilling required.

The Residential Lock Box Program is intended for individuals who:

  • Have a history of medical problems and live alone.
  • Are recuperating at home from a hospital stay.
  • Have a medical alert pendant or home medical alert system.

The Residential Lock Boxes are specifically keyed for the Sugar Grove Fire Protection District and can only be ordered by the Fire District.  The Sugar Grove Fire Protection District offers a Residential Lock Box Loan/Purchase Program for residents of the Sugar Grove Fire Protection District.  The Sugar Grove Fire Protection District offers this service, when units are available, for a deposit fee of $100.00 which will be refunded upon the return of the Knox Box when this service is no longer needed.

Call the Fire Station at 630-466-4513 to speak with the Fire Prevention Bureau for more information.
