KnoxEntry prevents the practice of picking the locks and eliminates the chance of an electronic gaming machine key being duplicated, falling into the wrong hands, being sold illegally or on a non-authorized third-party site such as eBay. It also eliminates the need to purchase additional keys to replace lost or broken keys.
The KnoxEntry System can provide significant long-term cost savings including reducing the purchase of extra keys and the time and effort of signing out keys, and eliminating the time and cost of rekeying or drilling out key cores due to missing keys. The system also requires no power at the entry points, eliminating costly and time-consuming electrical work, and allowing it to work when no power is available.
The KnoxEntry System can be leveraged throughout a casino for various uses. The locks can be retrofitted quickly and cost-effectively as no power to the locking point is required. The system can also be deployed with key vaults, padlocks, elevator boxes, riser room boxes, and other safety and security products for daily or emergency response use.
Codes allow unique access permissions based on users' security clearance and job description. The eKey activity can be monitored, modified or disabled via mobile devices such as phones, tablets, and laptops. Administrators can easily develop reports on all access activity, which is automatically recorded, including the date and time the eKey was used and on what machine or lock it was used on.
