OPERATIONAL POLICY
Knox Box
The Knox Box in the City of Clovis is keyed different than the City of Fresno Knox
Box. The Clovis Fire Department has high security guidelines for handling a Knox
Key. The keys are stored in a lock box on the apparatus which is electronically
monitored. If a Knox Key is needed to access a building in the City of Clovis, the
company officer will need to make a request through communications for a Clovis
Fire apparatus to respond with a key.
Police/Fire Bypass Key
The Clovis Police/Fire bypass key X-1 is keyed the same as the Fresno X-1
Police/Fire bypass key. Department members can gain access to Clovis apartments
and other properties that are secured with a Police/Fire bypass, by using the X-1 key
found on all Department front line apparatus.
