Emergency Access

Can Public Safety reach you during an emergency?

The City of Santa Clarita, the Santa Clarita Sheriff’s Station, and the Los Angeles County Fire Department are working together to provide the best in emergency services to our community. Through the E-Key System, using Knox products (www.KnoxBox.com), our emergency personnel will have access through a high-security, restricted key system.

Seconds count in an emergency. Although gates and secure doors help deter unwanted guests, they also prevent responders from reaching you during medical and other life emergencies. With improved access, property owner or association liability is reduced. Residents receive faster emergency treatment and Sheriff’s patrols are more visible for crime prevention.

It is up to you…

Sheriff’s and Fire personnel will always respond to a call, but it is up to you whether they wait to gain access to a property or enter immediately to provide emergency assistance.

A small investment on your part will:

1. Shorten emergency response time
2. Increase law enforcement visibility
3. Provide immediate medical aid
4. Improve patrol service due to limited access
5. Enhance resident health and safety
