Where the RX-164 is used
The RX-164 gives the public a simple drop opening for medication bottles and other bulky items, with the contents behind a locked steel door. Protex supplies the RX label unattached, so the same box can be used for another purpose if you prefer. Collection of controlled substances is regulated; confirm your program's requirements before you specify the box. Protex does not describe this model as DEA-registered collection equipment and we make no such claim.
Installation
The RX-164 has pre-drilled holes in the back for wall mounting, and Protex includes mounting hardware for wood and concrete. It can also sit on a table or shelf, but fixing it to the wall is the more secure installation.
