Minimize Your Risk with Secure Key Management
Secure Key Drop Box Installation Best Practices – follow these best practices when installing your secure key drop box:
Choose a Visible, Well-Lit Location
Place your secure key drop box in a highly visible and well-lit area to deter tampering and unauthorized access. If video surveillance is available, position at least one camera to clearly monitor the drop box.
Follow Manufacturer’s Installation Guidelines
Always install your secure key drop box according to the manufacturer’s recommended procedures. Ensure all anchoring bolts and security features are correctly installed.
Integrate with Alarm Systems
Whenever possible, integrate your key drop box with your alarm system. Wired or wireless sensors—such as open/close contacts or motion sensors—can detect tampering. Configure your alarm so the drop box has its own dedicated security zone.
Daily Checks for Enhanced Security
Regularly empty your key drop box as part of your daily opening and closing routines. This reduces risks associated with potential theft.
Assess Local Crime Risks
Consider local crime rates before installing a secure key drop box. Consult your local police department or Regional Security Manager for advice on crime prevention and safe installation practices.
