Bristol Lock Box Program
Bristol Police Department · City program
Free emergency-access lock box service; no cash amount stated
Bristol Police, Fire, and EMS offer a lock box program that helps first responders get quick access to a home during an emergency. The town says donated lock boxes have been available and residents can request one through the police department.
Program details
How it works
The Bristol Police Department explains that police, fire, and EMS personnel sometimes need to enter a home quickly when the occupant cannot open the door. The program offers exterior lock boxes that store a house key so responders can access the home without breaking in.
What the service covers
The town describes two options:
- A KnoxBox® installed on the exterior of the home, with a key secured inside.
- A real estate-style lock box affixed to the entry door and opened by a code kept at Police/Fire Headquarters.
The page says the typical KnoxBox costs about $300 per unit, while a typical lock box costs about $30. It also says several real estate brokers and local businesses have donated lock boxes to the program.
Amounts and matching
No grant or rebate amount is stated because this is a free service / donated equipment program rather than a cash payment. The town says it is fully committed to helping install the boxes.
How to apply
Residents can request a lock box by calling the Bristol Police Department.
Timing and deadlines
No deadline or application window is stated on the official page.
